We're deeply saddened to hear that our partner, IBC - Mavi Hilal Vakfı, lost two of their staff members following a Russian drone attack in Ukraine last week. The attack happened as they were filling up water tanks in Kherson, reminding us of the bravery of humanitarian workers. #HMD2024

Our deepest sympathies are with the families of the six murdered hostages whose bodies were recovered by the IDF overnight, including British citizen Nadav Popplewell. We hope and pray for the safe deliverance of the hostages still in Hamas’s clutches after more than 10 months.
