TRCS Volunteers continue to conduct registration to support cash distribution to the victims of floods at Chumbini A Village in Rufiji District,Pwani Region. @IFRCAfrica @ifrc

[PRCS @PalestineRCS]

This is how we find the Palestine Red Crescent ambulance and the bodies of our colleagues Haitham Tubasi and Suhail Hassouna.
The Red Crescent logo is an internationally protected symbol. Instead of it being used to protect our colleagues, it was used as a burial shroud.
Rest in peace our humanitarian heroes 🙏

"It's a shocking, heartbreaking and outrageous news." @TDellaLonga, @IFRC Spokesperson talking on @BBCWorld about the killing of two @PalestineRCS colleagues.

Since October, we have lost 24 colleagues in this crisis.
This is unacceptable and this must stop now.

In Tanzania, powerful winds and intense rainfall from the tropical storm Hidaya affected numerous areas, including Lindi, Mtwara, Pwani, and Dar es Salaam.

Since the beginning of April, heavy rains in various part of the country led to flooding and landslides affecting over 200,000 people and leaving more than 85,000 displaced.

Volunteers from Tanzania Red Cross @trcs1962, working alongside local authorities, have been helping people affected by the floods since the beginning. However, more support is needed.

[IFRC Africa @IFRCAfrica]

In the aftermath of tropical storm #Hidaya, @trcs1962 is responding, helping evacuate families whose homes have been flooded.

Since the start of the floods in April, more than 200,000 people have been affected, and over 85,000 people homeless.

Dire support is needed.

[IFRC Africa @IFRCAfrica]

Strong winds and heavy rainfall caused by #CycloneHidaya have been experienced in Lindi, Mtwara, Pwani and Dar es Salaam regions together with Unguja island and the surrounding areas in Tanzania.

@trcs1962 teams are at the frontline of the flood response in the country.

[mateyo @matteyowwwwww]

TC #Hidaya is expected to make landfall in #Tanzania today and is set to be the only fifth tropical cyclone to directly hit the country since the beginning of reliable records.

It is already become the strongest storm in this part of the South Indian Ocean in recorded history!

[Jagan Chapagain @jagan_chapagain]

Tropical Cyclone Hidaya is approaching the coast of Tanzania with expected winds and possible flooding rains.

Red Cross teams in the regions expected to be affected have started mobilizing volunteers.

Teams from Tanzania Red Cross @trcs1962 are working with local communities and government spreading early warning messages and preparedness activities.

Early warning early action is key at this time.

We @IFRC are on stand by as needed.

🚨 A small cyclone named Hidaya is forecasted to make landfall off Tanzania's coast today, authorities caution.

The warning extends to heavy rainfall anticipated across various regions from May 3 to 6. This further compounds the already severe flood situation in the country.

[Matt Baden @MattBaden]

So impressed with the @trcs1962 as it continually works to improve their response capacity in the midst of ongoing emergencies #PER @IFRCAfrica

[IFRC Africa @IFRCAfrica]

Tanzania has declared a national state of emergency due to severe floods in Pwani (Rufiji + Kibiti districts) and Morogoro (Kilombero district).

Over 10,000 families have been displaced & more than 8,000 homes damaged.

@trcs1962 is responding, supporting affected families.

[Asad🗽🍎 @AsadFromNYC]

They just straight up admitted that 30,000 Arabs didn’t matter. None of it mattered until 7 of theirs were killed. I don’t know whether to feel relieved at their cold honesty, or infuriated by it.

Well worth a read #IHL
