Another #cyclone is going to make landfall in the south coast of #Bangladesh this evening. Great Danger Signal No. 10 already announced by the government. @RESCUEorg and its partners are prepared with emergency aid kits to support the affected communities.

IRC team in #Kabul preparing to deploy to #Baghlan where they will deliver emergency assistance to those affected by the floods in Afghanistan. See @RESCUEorg statement from Saturday here: rescue.org/press-release/…

Stunning piece in @nytimes about the evolving conflict in Myanmar. I was in northern Thailand in March & met people too scared to speak out about what is happening back home. The bravery of the people featured in this piece can't be understated: nytimes.com/2024/04/20/wor…

Major flooding across Afghanistan has affected over 1,500 families. Many have lost their homes and livelihoods are threatened, with more flooding predicted to reach other areas of the country over the next week. The IRC is assessing humanitarian needs.

New @RESCUEorg analysis finds dramatic surge in child marriage in southern Bangladesh as climate-induced disasters increase in frequency: rescue.org/press-release/…

Returns of hundreds of thousands of Afghans from Pakistan, most without jobs or homes & just before winter, set to deepen Afghanistan's already-severe humanitarian crisis. “The mass arrivals couldn’t have happened at a worse time” @UnhcrZulu unhcr.org/news/stories/f…

The world has a responsibility towards Afghan people, who have suffered enormously after decades of conflict largely instigated by western powers. We should not and must not look away.

Thankfully this happened the day @RESCUEorg Mobile Health Team were visiting and the doctor could treat the burns quickly. The child was still screaming in pain the next day. The village is at least a 3 hour drive from the nearest town - let alone the nearest hospital.

Leaving Kabul always comes with heartbreak.

"We've seen up to 200,000 people arriving since the start of October, many with nothing but the clothes on their back." The IRC's @NancyJDent told @Reuters about the dire situation of thousands of people crossing from Pakistan to Afghanistan. reuters.com/video/watch/id…

Arriving to the @RESCUEorg field office in #Badghis and greeted with a bowl of Aush = the warmest of welcomes

Do not test

Devastatingly beautiful #Afghanistan 🇦🇫

I’m in Bamiyan, where winter is quickly setting in. Families like this one don’t have enough to eat and barely any water. This little girl’s cheeks are sunburned and chapped from the cold, dry air. @RESCUEorg 💛🖤💛

The scenes at #Torkham are beyond belief. Up to 3,000 FAMILIES per day arriving from Pakistan, ripped from their homes with nowhere to go. 💔
