Hundreds of Palestinian civilians were killed in a massive blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday, while concerns grow as supplies of water and food ran out.
Both Israel and Hamas have issued rival claims about the atrocity feared to have killed at least 500 people.
Israel has said it will allow Egypt to deliver limited quantities of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip amid its siege following surprise attacks by Hamas on October 7.
In a video post on social media, Salah said: "It is not always easy to speak in times like this. There has been too much violence and too much heartbreak and brutality.
"The escalations in the recent weeks is unbearable to witness. All lives are sacred and must be protected. The massacres need to stop. Families are being torn apart.
"What is clear now is humanitarian aid to Gaza must be allowed immediately. The people there are in terrible conditions.
"The scenes at the hospital last night were horrifying. The people of Gaza need food, water and medical supplies urgently.
"I am calling on the world leaders to come together to prevent the further slaughter of innocent souls - humanity must prevail."
Salah had already made what was described as a "significant" undisclosed donation, via his agent, to humanitarian organisation the Egyptian Red Crescent Society in support of the people of Gaza.
On Wednesday evening, United States president Joe Biden said Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah El-Sisi had agreed to open the Rafah border crossing to allow roughly 20 trucks carrying humanitarian aid to enter Gaza.
Last week, the Government encouraged sports bodies in the UK to pay respects to the victims of the recent violence in Israel and the Gaza strip.
It is understood the Department for Culture, Media and Sport had written to various governing bodies suggesting they pay tribute in an appropriate manner at forthcoming events.
While the Government has expressed its steadfast support of Israel, the Football Association opted not to light up the Wembley arch with the colours of the Israel flag for England's friendly against Australia last Friday.
England players wore black armbands during that match and a period of silence was held before kick-off to respect "the innocent victims of the devastating events in Israel and Palestine".
