The @IFRC is deeply concerned about the future of people living in and returning to Afghanistan, a country that is already facing multiple, overlapping crises. More than 2.6 million people have returned from Pakistan and Iran, according to UNHCR data, in less than 2 years -…
On 28 March 2025, a powerful earthquake struck central Myanmar, destroying homes and turning entire communities to rubble. Yadana Theingi Nun Monastery School was among the hardest hit in Sagaing. @IFRC & @MyanmarRedCross are helping survivors rebuild—one step at a time.
No child should waste away from hunger. No parent should face the heartbreak of watching their child starve, with no way to help. According to the latest UNICEF statistics, 90,000 children are in urgent need of treatment for malnutrition in Gaza. This is not just a crisis,…
Deeply concerned by this news from @WHO. We echo the urgent call from @DrTedros and stand in full solidarity with our @WHO colleagues. Humanitarian workers and health facilities must be protected.

As wildfires raged through northern #Latakia, Syrian Arab Red Crescent teams acted fast—supporting firefighting efforts, treating injuries, and providing urgent medical care through mobile clinics. The response continues today, with volunteers assessing needs and delivering…
A severe heatwave continues to sizzle Greece exacerbating wildfires. Look at what is happening just outside of Athens. Fire has come dangerously close to houses forcing hundreds to evacuate. Around the clock, @greekredcross volunteers are out there supporting the communities 🙏
The IFRC is calling for support to respond to a massive surge in people returning to Afghanistan from Iran, with over 1.2 million crossing the border already this year. Our appeal is underfunded & without more help, @ARCSAfghanistan may have to scale back. bit.ly/44yVGxV
