The war in Ukraine has affected the lives of millions of people, driving 10 million out of their homes, and creating unprecedented humanitarian needs inside the country. To date, 14.6 million people need urgent humanitarian assistance. The IRC has been present in Ukraine since February 2022, working hand in hand with local partners to provide vital support to conflict-affected people to help them survive, recover and regain control of their future.

As Syria has entered its fourteenth year of war, its health infrastructure has almost completely broken down and what remains of it is on the verge of collapse. With support from the EU, IRC teams have trained clinical staff and health workers providing reproductive health treatments to women in need.

A decade of conflict has made Syria one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises. The recent 7.8 earthquake has devastated communities even further. How is the IRC responding?

Violent conflict and climate change are driving protracted crises in the Sahel region of Africa, forcing large scale displacement across the region and beyond, with 4.4 million people forcibly displaced.
