Conflict in the Middle East has devastated lives, and DEC charities and their local partners are continuing to provide lifesaving support to people in Gaza, Lebanon, the West Bank and Syria, as they have been throughout the crisis.

The Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal closed for donations at the end of 2024, having supported an estimated 8.2 million people* in the first two years of response, but DEC-funded programmes will continue until the end of August 2025, thanks to the incredible amount raised.
