These children’s drawings are from art therapy sessions for young people caught in last year’s earthquakes in Türkiye & Syria; a reminder of the tragic human impact of the disaster, and the crucial humanitarian work of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement which we support.

My notes of last night briefing on the situation in #gazastrip. @PalestineRCS appears to be the only actor that remains active.
Aid is NOT reaching beyond Deir Al Balah according to PRCS. This is a highly concerning humanitarian leaving hundreds of thousands of people behind.

Not knowing if a loved one is safe and well can be heartbreaking

You can’t believe how kind the British are.

Every morning, a van pulls up outside your house in Coventry.
A friendly man brings you a freshly-baked flatbread to eat.
It’s just for you,not anyone else in your family.
Every afternoon he comes back to make sure you’ve eaten it.

It seems #CycloneMocha landfall will be around #Maungdaw township in northern areas of #Rakhine state in #Myanmar

It is an area with very high levels of pre-existing vulnerability, rough terrain, access limitations etc.

The situation in Sudan highlights the need to uphold the right to claim asylum in the UK, alongside the urgent need to create more safe routes so people forced to flee in situations of conflict aren’t forced to take dangerous journeys. A THREAD 🧵

[Jersey Overseas Aid @JerseyOAC]

Speaking from Aleppo, Syria: For this earthquake to occur in a war-shattered region is nothing short of a catastrophe.

My heart goes out to everyone who has lost their loved ones. Parents who have lost children; children who have lost parents.
