s the drinking water crisis continues in the city of Al-Hasakah, and in coordination with the communes, the Kurdish Red Crescent is making ongoing efforts to distribute drinking water to residents. This comes after the WASH team confirmed the safety and quality of the water before distribution using a chlorine level testing device, ensuring the health of those benefiting from these services.
The concentration of large numbers of displaced people at key reception points increases the chances of spreading infectious diseases, such as diarrhea, scabies, smallpox, jaundice, worms, and leishmaniasis, leading to serious health risks and exacerbating suffering under these difficult conditions. Health education teams, in collaboration with the WASH team, distributed hygiene sacks and disseminated health guidelines. However, there is still an urgent need to provide hygiene tools and strengthen the sanitation system to ensure the health and safety of internally displaced persons (IDPs).
Given the importance of the water, sanitation, and hygiene sector during crises, the Kurdish Red Crescent WASH team conducted preliminary assessments of shelters for displaced people from #Aleppo and #Shahba areas. These assessments aimed to identify emergency interventions in humanitarian response within the water and sanitation sector. The measures included tests to monitor water quality, as well as identifying hygiene needs. Information and lists were also shared with partner organizations and the Office of Organisation Affairs, facilitating the rapid implementation of interventions to alleviate the suffering of internally displaced persons (IDPs).
In light of the crises affecting the city of Al-Hasakah, the efforts of the Kurdish Red Crescent stand out as a significant example of important humanitarian work. The organization is striving to provide clean drinking water to the residents in collaboration with Medico Switzerland, in response to the current situation. These efforts come at a critical time, as the city is experiencing a severe water shortage, which negatively impacts public health and exacerbates living conditions due to the lack of water from the Alouk station. These ongoing campaigns highlight the importance of community cooperation and coordination among communes and humanitarian organizations to address urgent challenges
