Due to the current security situation, we were forced to withdraw our international team from northern Syria. Our projects in al-Hol and Raqqa continue with our local staff.
Leaving our partner Heyva Sor behind was a difficult decision for us. But it is not clear how Assad's forces will behave towards foreign members of international organizations.
We will not give up!

In the meantime, we support Heyva Sor financially, among other things, and are looking for ways to use our team in Iraq to care for refugees.

Support our hospital, support our clinic, support our emergency aid.
