Afghanistan
As thousands of families fled Afghanistan in August 2021, RI was there to meet their immediate needs at the border with Iran.
“Women with young children arrived exhausted. Many had travelled through the night on foot, carrying the few possessions they were able to fling into a suitcase,” says Azadeh Hassani, RI Global Humanitarian Director.
“Our teams greeted them with hot meals, warm clothes, blankets and health services.”
