Our Statement on Winterisation and Older Persons in Ukraine

Support for Older People

As Ukraine enters its second winter since Russia’s full-scale invasion, older people – whether at home or displaced, are bracing themselves for low temperatures, and the threat of a repeat of winter 2022 during which frequent attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure plunged many parts of Ukraine into long periods of blackouts and energy shortages. In this statement, we urge humanitarians and other actors to take older people’s rights and needs into account as they develop and implement their plans for the approaching winter.

Afghanistan Earthquakes

Humanitarian Response, News

Western Afghanistan has been struck by two devastating earthquakes: the first on Saturday 7th October and the second on Wednesday 11th October. So far, over 2,000 people have sadly lost their lives and many more have been injured. This number is expected to rise as the true extent of the damage is realised. World Jewish Relief is monitoring the situation closely through our partner. Our thoughts and prayers are with those impacted by these devastating quakes.
