Over the past year, violence has escalated across the Middle East. In Palestine, over 43,000 people have been killed and thousands more have been injured or deemed missing, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. And on September 23, Israel launched intense air strikes across areas of Lebanon, marking the deadliest day of Israeli strikes in Lebanon since the 2006 war.
While issues related to the delivery of humanitarian aid persist, IRUSA continues to work with local partners to provide immediate emergency assistance including access to food aid, hygiene kits, medicine/medical supplies, and so much more for families across the region.

Decades of political instability and prolonged conflict have destroyed the communities that once thrived in the Middle East. Millions of people have been displaced from their homes and are in need of humanitarian assistance, women and children among those most affected. Three of the eight countries Islamic Relief works in – Palestine, Syria, and Yemen – have suffered greatly and are among the poorest nations in the region. With your support, we can help rebuild the Middle East.
Islamic Relief has been working in the Middle East since 1997. Not only have we been able to provide immediate and long-term aid to those in desperate need, but we’ve also helped bring compassion, comfort, and hope back into the hearts of families across the region. Now, nearly 30 years later, the Islamic Relief global family continues to deliver life-saving aid across eight Middle Eastern countries including Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Turkey, Tunisia, and Yemen.
