ETHIOPIA EMERGENCY: HELP NOW

The ongoing conflict in Ethiopia is having a devastating effect on local communities, particularly those in remote areas. It rarely makes the headlines, yet civilians continue to suffer deeply from the violence, with many killed or injured and only limited help reaching them from outside the region. The fighting in Amhara and Oromia has displaced, wounded, and killed countless people. Attacks on health services and incidents of sexual violence are reportedly widespread, and survivors continue to require urgent medical attention. In northern Ethiopia, people returning to their homes face additional dangers from mines and explosive remnants of war (ERW).


 

For many years, the ICRC has been working in Ethiopia, engaging directly with all parties involved in the fighting to ensure its teams can reach the most affected communities regardless of who they are or where they live. Your support is needed now more than ever. Please donate today.
