Vital Voices is working closely with its partners in the region to monitor the devastating impact of the 7.8 earthquake that hit Türkiye, Syria and surrounding countries on Monday. Our thoughts are with the people of Türkiye, Syria, and all areas affected in this tragic time, particularly those who have lost loved ones, and the brave first responders who are working to save lives.
We send our deepest condolences to the families of the victims and wish a full recovery to the injured. We count on the international community and support the local efforts to help the thousands of families hit by this disaster, many of whom were already in dire need of humanitarian aid in areas where access is a challenge.
