Across the Middle East region, humanitarian needs remain severe and increasingly complex. In Gaza, the ongoing crisis, repeated displacement and the widespread destruction of critical infrastructure continue to leave millions in urgent need of support across multiple sectors. In Syria, fragile institutions and political uncertainty have weakened the delivery of essential services while increasing protection concerns for vulnerable communities. Yemen faces persistently high levels of acute food insecurity, compounded by reduced access to basic care. International Medical Corps continues to adapt our operations across the region, drawing on decades of experience, trusted local partnerships and well-established emergency response systems. This enables us to deliver timely, effective and lifesaving assistance to communities affected by crisis, while remaining responsive to evolving humanitarian needs.
