As humanitarian needs grow across the Middle East, civilians continue to bear the heaviest burden.

In Gaza, over a million people don’t know where their next meal is coming from. @IFRC and @PalestineRCS are providing life-saving relief.

Your Zakat can help. Donate today.

Building on the partnership agreement signed in 2025 in #Mauritius, @IFRC and @commission_coi are advancing concrete steps toward implementation.

Today’s meeting in #Madagascar focused on the Plan of Action and joint resource mobilization to strengthen cooperation and resilience across the South-West Indian Ocean region.

The engagement also highlighted the complementary roles of the #RedCross and #RedCrescent alongside @commission_coi in supporting progress toward the treaty on the protection of persons in the event of disasters.

[María Martínez @MariaMercedes_M]

A fruitful meeting w/ the Prime Minister of #Madagascar to strengthen coordination following cyclone #Gezani. As shelter remains the main need & as co-convener of the sector,we discussed ongoing support through @IFRC_DREF & @IFRC Emergency Appeal (https://t.co/I6dXpar5CA)

A moment of pride in @LesothoRedCross for their incredible work in the communities in Kena.

From mentorship and education to nutrition and HIV care, children are finding hope—and becoming changemakers.

💡 One young man, Mr Nkopane Maema, once an orphan as his parents died when he was a young boy, is now a certified pharmacist volunteering at the same clinic that supported him. His journey inspires me to believe in a brighter future. Thank you Lars Amundsen Family Foundation for enabling the IFRC to support this program.

🏥 The Kena clinic serves 7,000+ people in a hard-to-reach area, with patients walking up to 8 hours for care. Despite limited staff and resources, it offers HIV care, mother and child care, and more.

IFRC will continue to work with Lesotho RC to support these incredible initiatives.

[Jagan Chapagain @jagan_chapagain]

🇱🇸 Grateful for the warm welcome in Lesotho during my first visit as IFRC Secretary General!

Honored to meet Hon. Neo Matjato Moteane, Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, and join Ministers of Information, Local Government, Public Works & the Prime Minister’s Office for the signing of the IFRC Legal Status Agreement in Lesotho.

Deep appreciation to the Government of Lesotho for:
✅ Championing humanitarian efforts under His Majesty’s leadership
✅ Granting diplomatic status to IFRC to strengthen our impact
✅ Empowering youth & backing innovations like the Basotho clean water project

The Lesotho Red Cross Society (@LesothoRedCross) is locally rooted under national law. Together, let’s further strengthen its legal framework, boost resilience, and support sustainable development.

[Louise Daintrey-Hall @LDaintrey]

The stage is set for a healthier Kenya!

IFRC @africacdc join forces with partners @KenyaRedCross, @MOH_Kenya, and @PrudentialKenya to launch the #REACHIntiative to empower communities to achieve universal health care.

Stronger health systems start with strong #CommunityHealth⚕️

7% is the percentage to know 3 months after the conflict.

This is about urgency in the delivering humanitarian services. #sudan Red Crescent Society @SSRCS is doing its level best to assist people in need. @ifrc Emergency Appeal is in 7% funding coverage & the needs are growing.

ℹ️ Earlier this morning, ICPAC and @IFRCAfrica held a partners and donor breakfast meeting in Nairobi. The roundtable discussion was to advocate for a collaborative approach towards addressing #drought emergencies in the #HornofAfrica. 1/3
