A 100 days since the earthquake in Myanmar. A huge thank you to @MyanmarRedCross, who have worked tirelessly for 100 days to reach and support as many people as possible. And to the @ifrc team in Myanmar and beyond for doing all they can to support them. The work goes on.

Funding pressure will now force a rethink about how to sustain services in the world's largest refugee camp. Options are limited, but there are some worth exploring. My thoughts below in @newhumanitarian.

Thank you, @ECHO_Asia. This is one of the most alarming crises in Asia Pacific and yet it is under reported and under funded. We're grateful for your support which will enable critical health and relief work.
🚨 The EU is doubling its support for @ifrc’s emergency response in Afghanistan from €250,000 to €500,000. Shelter, healthcare, food & clean water are urgent needs as tens of thousands who have to leave Pakistan face poverty and uncertainty upon their arrival in Afghanistan.

A major crisis is developing in #Afghanistan. As large numbers of people cross the border from Pakistan. They face an overwhelmed health service, lack of shelter, and hunger. @IFRC_DREF will enable @ARCSAfghanistan to assist at the border. As we plan for the long response.

The first response is always local. For 2 weeks, @MyanmarRedCross staff and volunteers have been delivering water, shelter, and first aid to people affected by the earthquake. @ifrc is supporting with money, coordination, and relief supplies. Thank you to the fantastic team!
