Continued support for displaced people from the areas of Shahba and Aleppo

In continuation of supporting the displaced people from the regions of Shahba and Aleppo,
the Kurdish Red Crescent distributed 765 hygiene kits within the framework of the Emergency Response Project to Support the Displaced. The distribution took place in the shelter centers of Qamishlo, Girke Lege, and Derik.
The kits include essential items that help improve personal and public hygiene, contributing to the protection of the health and safety of the displaced families.

Establishing sewage and water networks in Newroz camp

As part of its ongoing efforts to support displaced families and improve their living and health conditions, the Kurdish Red Crescent, in collaboration with Volkshilfe, carried out a series of service and health interventions at Newroz Camp under the framework of the Improved Living and Health project.
Newroz Camp recently received displaced families from Shahba, Afrin, and Aleppo. The interventions included the construction of bathrooms and sanitation facilities, as well as the establishment of sewage and water networks—contributing to the enhancement of public health, hygiene, and the protection of human dignity amid difficult living conditions.
In addition, the medical dispensary within the camp was expanded to increase its capacity and improve the quality of essential healthcare services provided to the residents.
Kitchen kits were also distributed to displaced families from Aleppo and Shahba residing in shelters in the cities of Qamishlo, Derik, Hasakah, Raqqa, and Tabqa. Furthermore, water tanks were secured to ensure access to clean water as a fundamental part of an integrated humanitarian response.

Distribution of food baskets to the displaced

In aim of continuing providing humanitarian aid and strengthening solidarity with communities affected by displacement, the Kurdish Red Crescent, in collaboration with Volkshilfe organization, carried out a support campaign in June within “Improved Living and Health Conditions” project. The campaign targeted displaced people from Afrin in the cities of Qamishlo, Derik, Hasaka, Raqqa, and Tabqa.

 

Providing water wells with solar energy in Qamishlo countryside

Within the second phase of the “Solar Energy for NES 2” project with Medico International, the Kurdish Red Crescent Organization installed the solar panels for drinking water wells in the villages of Najmouk, Girbawi, and Harm Rash. These villages had long suffered from the lack of basic electricity, making it extremely difficult for residents to access water.

 

This step marks a positive turning point in the daily lives of the residents. In addition to solving the water issue, the project has clear environmental and economic benefits by relying on renewable and environmentally friendly energy sources. The Work is still ongoing on the fourth well in the village of Kharab Kurti.

Continuing civil defense and first aid training using advanced equipment and machinery

As community members continue to join civil defense and first aid training, both basic and advanced, with the aim of mitigating risks during disasters and crises and supporting emergency response and medical care within the “Medico international” project, the training teams of the Kurdish Red Crescent strive to facilitate the delivery of information through the use of advanced equipment and tools in training operations.
“You can also join the training by contacting the commune.”

Innovative and tailored initiatives to support patients with the aim of integrating them into society

 

As a new step added to the set of activities and services provided within the Oncology, Burns, and Thalassemia Hospital, work is currently underway on a set of innovative initiatives specifically designed to support young and adolescent patients. These initiatives aim to integrate them into society through empowerment and learning new skills, including nursing courses, English language courses, psychological support activities, and more, while they are undergoing treatment inside the hospital.

Providing materials and laboratory reagents for the main water laboratories in Hasakah, Qamishli, Raqqa, and Tabqa.

As a continuation of the activity to support water laboratories through the partnership with medico international Schweiz, which comes within the context of continuous efforts to improve the quality of water monitoring services by providing the necessary support to the water laboratories affiliated with the General Directorate of Water in North and East Syria, the Kurdish Red Crescent organization delivered laboratory materials and reagents to the main water laboratories in (Hasaka – Qamishli – Raqqa – Tabqa) with the aim of developing the skills of technical staff and raising the efficiency of the laboratories to ensure that the necessary analyses are conducted with greater accuracy and effectiveness.

Providing solar-powered panels for the IDPs

 

A series of living challenges face the IDPs from Afrin and Shahba in shelters, including the absence of electricity in the majority of the centers, which constitutes daily suffering for them. Through an emergency plan, 1700 small solar panels were distributed in Qamishlo, Hasakah, Tirbespiye, Amuda, and Jal Agha. This initiative, despite its simplicity compared to the scale of needs, enables families to benefit from it, even partially, in providing night lighting or charging some small devices.

Installating two solar energy systems in two schools in the city of Qamishlo

Continuing with the Solardarity fundraising campaign to support and develop solar energy as an alternative energy source in NES, which is being implemented with the support of medico international/Solar energy for North-East Syria 2, the Kurdish Red Crescent Organization installed two solar energy systems in two secondary and preparatory schools in the city of Qamishli.
The ongoing crisis due to the weak electricity infrastructure has affected several sectors, including the educational sector, and by installing solar energy, students can be provided with a more stable and stimulating learning experience.
