BREAKING: Increasing violence threatens the security of hundreds of thousands 

As you have likely seen in the news, the situation in North-Eastern Syria is escalating and more Syrian families are at risk of being uprooted, caught up in military action and violence, and forced to leave everything behind.

HELP SYRIAN FAMILIES NOW: [link removed]


Dear John,

You might have read my previous message about the devastating violence threatening the lives of innocent people in north-east Syria. With this email I would like to update you on our work in the region.

My UNHCR colleagues in Syria and neighbouring Iraq are helping tens of thousands of frightened families who had no other option but to flee from the shelling and escalating violence.

Thanks to the generous support of people like you, we have been able to provide emergency life-saving aid to more than 95,000 displaced people in camps, host communities and communal shelters in north-east Syria so far.

We have also established a new refugee camp in Bardarash and a new transit site in Gawilan in northern Iraq where over 12,000 newly arrived Syrian refugees have been provided with family tents, hot meals, water, medical and psychosocial care and protection.
