This is
urgent:

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Turkey and Syria early Monday morning,
causing widespread damage and more than 3,000 deaths across the region.

This is a major humanitarian emergency — and it is devastating communities
already pushed to the brink due to extreme food shortages and violent
conflict.

Mercy Corps teams are responding right now in Northwest Syria — and we
need all the support our global community can offer. [ [link removed] ]Please send an
urgent gift to our Humanitarian
Response Fund to help people in moments of crisis like this one.

Mercy Corps’ Syria Country Director Kieren Barnes just sent this update:

"Our colleagues in Northwest Syria reported that the situation is
catastrophic, with the area affected by the earthquake being the center
for over 1.8 million displaced Syrians who were already suffering after a
decade of conflict in Syria. Already, 4.1 million people were going hungry
in Northwest Syria and food insecurity has worsened since the war in
Ukraine started."

Mercy Corps is rapidly assessing needs and providing emergency water,
sanitation, and hygiene support to people whose homes were affected by the
earthquake.
