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 754 hygiene kits as part of the emergency response project.

Journey to Recovery

Ibtisam Muhyeddin Youssef, a 25-year-old woman, faced a major challenge after having her right leg amputated due to cancer. She spent seven months enduring pain and difficulty.
Her journey toward healing and reclaiming a normal life reflects strength, resilience, and determination. After visiting the prosthetics center run by the Kurdish Red Crescent, Ibtisam received a prosthetic leg, along with physical therapy and psychological support. This integrated care helped her navigate through some of the most difficult and painful months of her life.
Today, Ibtisam walks with confidence toward a new life — one where her prosthetic leg stands as a symbol of her struggle and victory over illness.

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.
