Your donation to the Middle East Crisis Appeal will help provide emergency relief and longer-term humanitarian support to people and communities affected by the crisis.
As hostilities escalate across the Middle East, humanitarian needs continue to grow. Recent developments across the Middle East have created a rapidly evolving humanitarian situation. Escalating hostilities and insecurity are putting civilians at increasing risk. People in Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Gaza and across the region are being killed, injured, displaced from their homes, and facing disruption to essential services such as healthcare, water, food, electricity and shelter.
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is responding. National Societies across the region - including the Iranian Red Crescent Society, Magen David Adom in Israel, Lebanese Red Cross, and Palestine Red Crescent Society - have mobilised volunteers and staff to provide emergency medical care, search and rescue, and other critical humanitarian assistance. Their teams are working under challenging conditions to reach people affected by the escalating crisis.
Australian Red Cross stands alongside our Movement partners as they respond to growing humanitarian needs across the region. Ensuring the safety and protection of humanitarian and medical personnel and enabling rapid and unimpeded access remains essential to reaching people who need help. Humanitarian consequences are expected to persist. Communities will need sustained support to access healthcare, psychosocial and mental health services, and to recover from damage to homes and infrastructure.
