Malala Yousafzai, a girl's education advocate and the world's youngest Nobel laureate, has once again called for an immediate and lasting ceasefire to end the needless violence and suffering of Palestinians in Gaza.
"It is unacceptable that children and families in Gaza are struggling to survive and facing these horrible conditions," the Pakistani activist said in separate posts on X, formerly Twitter and Instagram.
The young Nobel Peace Prize winner also provided an insight into the work of her organization, Malala Fund, which promotes girl's education, in collaboration with the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF) to assist the "young people" in the war-ravaged Gaza.

The 26-year-old activist spoke about the progress made in her organization's collaboration with the PCRF for the well-being of the young people of Gaza.
In her posts on her social media platforms, Malala emphasized the debilitating circumstances that children in Gaza are currently facing and their impact on their mental and physical well-being.
"In October last year, alongside our call for a ceasefire, @malalafund supported Palestine Children's Relief Fund @thepcrf's incredible work, providing medical and humanitarian relief to children and their families."
She also shared photos of volunteers interacting and working with children and wrote: "Currently, more than 625,000 children in Gaza are unable to attend school, with no access to formal education."
On Instagram, she posted: "Living under constant threat of bombardment takes a devastating toll on children's physical and mental well-being, particularly when they don’t have access to proper care."

Malala expressed gratitude to the PCRF for its efforts in providing essential services to help children overcome trauma inflicted by war and provide prosthetic limbs and rehabilitation to the young people of Gaza.
Moreover, she also highlighted the PCRF's "Treatment Abroad" and "Medical Mission" programmes, which provide urgent medical care and tranformative procedures free of cost.
The advocate for girl's education also appealed to her followers to lend their support and encouragement to the PCRF. She concluded her social media posts by reiterating her call for an immediate and lasting ceasefire in Gaza to end the unwarranted violence and suffering.
