In this region, and particularly in Chechnya, the ICRC is doing its utmost to provide vitally needed assistance and protection for a population hard hit by over 10 years of conflict.

Shali, Chechnya. Displaced people receiving basic necessities distributed by the ICRC. Some 50,000 residents and displaced people in Chechnya receive this kind of aid. The neediest people lack even the most essential wares, including hygiene items, mattresses, bedsheets, blankets, candles, buckets and shoes. Almost 18,500 children from the poorest families receiving aid will be given clothing and footwear in September and winter jackets in December.
