Middle East Emergency Appeal
A humanitarian emergency is unfolding across the Middle East. Families have been forced to flee their homes, including those who are already refugees, with nowhere safe to turn. Displaced people are in urgent need of aid.
Please donate now.
UNHCR is the largest UN agency present in Iran. We are on the ground with emergency supplies and are ready to scale up as needed.
We are at the borders in neighbouring countries ready to respond with the relief items that people need most in the first days after they are forced to flee, including blankets, sleeping mats, and hygiene kits. Providing vulnerable displaced people with these emergency items supports their dignity, health, privacy, reducing further protection risks. Your urgent support can help us rush even more aid to families who have lost everything.
Refugees and displaced people are impacted across the region, including in Lebanon. They need urgent support.
UNHCR and partners are ready with life-saving relief.
Your donation can help protect and assist families who are fleeing violence, with nowhere else to go.
