Gill Moffat works with the British Red Cross and her latest assignment has been helping refugees cross the border into Egypt.
An aid worker has revealed the horror being suffered by children and families on the frontline of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
She was deployed to Egypt to help British nationals trying to escape the warzone via the border at Rafah.“They’d been living in a house with about 70 people. The house was bombed and they ended up in a hospital corridor. Gill added: “These children have been bombed, they’ve fled for their lives. They needed the security of their mum and dad. We’d have two PST members, one would sit with the parents and the other with the children, far enough away that they couldn’t hear what their parents were saying but close enough to see them.”
Gill, a psychosocial support team volunteer since 2008, supported British nationals arriving on buses in Cairo from Gaza via Rafah as they made their way back to the UK. Gill, who joined the Red Cross as a cadet in 1975, said after people arrived they spent a couple of hours in the reception centre where she was based before going for a shower and trying to get some sleep.
Despite the horrific stories Gill was exposed to in Cairo, she admits it was “really hard” to leave for home.
