We need an efficient, supportive and more compassionate asylum system, and we need expanded safe routes. We’re working out how the government’s proposals will affect the people we support, but we know they may be feeling scared today. Our teams will be here for them. ❤️

1.5 million people in Gaza urgently need shelter. After two years of suffering, winter brings cold and flooding, deepening an unimaginable crisis. We call for sustained, unimpeded humanitarian aid to help families survive the harsh months ahead.

🇬🇧🤝🇺🇦 Béatrice Butsana-Sita (@ButsanaSita), CEO of @BritishRedCross, visited #Ukraine to meet URCS Director General Maksym Dotsenko (@dotsenko_maksym), tour #Kyiv & #Chernihiv branches, and discuss emergency response, community support, and resilience-building.

Everyone deserves the chance to live their life freely and with dignity. Our fundamental principle of impartiality guides us in our compassionate support of people seeking safety – no matter who they are or where they’re from.

Conflict leaves communities vulnerable. Climate change makes things worse. Around the world, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is helping people prepare for, adapt to and recover from crises made worse by climate change. #COP30

Hurricane Melissa has devasted the Caribbean. Floods and landslides have damaged entire communities. @IFRC has delivered over 160 tonnes of aid to Jamaica. But the hurricane’s impact is long-lasting, and there will be a long journey to recovery.

A fair asylum system is one that is built on compassion, humanity, and dignity. One that works for everyone. One that sees people as human beings and puts their safety first. We will always stand for this. ⁠❤️

Storm Claudia brought heavy rain to parts of the UK over the weekend. One of those towns was Monmouth, in the south of Wales. When severe floods forced people to evacuate and take shelter at a local leisure centre, our teams of volunteers were there to support.

📍Sudan | For the first time in months, Somia heard her son’s voice. They got separated fleeing the attacks on Zamzam camp. She reached Tawila while he ended up in Tine, Chad. Their conversation since separation was a lifeline, one that countless families still hope for.👇🏽

Red Cross and Red Crescent teams are turning humanitarian response into climate action, empowering people like Mst Munni Akter in Bangladesh to build resilience. #COP30

Homes destroyed. Businesses in ruins. Schools turned to rubble. The @PalestineRCS is working tirelessly, distributing food parcels, blankets and mattresses, but the crisis remains catastrophic. It's vital that we see a lasting commitment to stability and recovery.

This Remembrance Day, we honour the courage and contributions of all British Red Cross staff and volunteers from the First World War. Here's a look back at some of the remarkable work carried out during this time. ❤️ #RemembranceDay

The @ICRC_Sudan and @SRCS_SD teams are in Tawila, assisting those fleeing #Fasher. Providing emergency assistance, restoring lost contact with loved ones & reinforcing the surgical capacity of the @MSF_france run hospital are the immediate focus. The needs outstrip the response
