I morgonens SR Ekot intervjuas Internationella Röda Korset och säger felaktigt att de är enda internationella organisation aktiv i Donetsk och Luhansk i Ukraina. Även UNHCR Ukraine finns på plats där och levererar nödhjälp och skydd.

UNHCR har kontor i Dnipro där den fruktansvärda attacken på ett stort bostadshus inträffade i helgen. Vi var på plats omedelbart med hjälp som varma kläder och presenningar, men också psykologiskt stöd för de drabbade.

Jordbävningen i Gaziantep förfärar. För ett år sedan var jag där och besökte UNHCR. Staden hade välkomnat så många flyende från Syrien. Ca 30 procent av invånarna är flyktingar. #unhcr #sverigeforunhcr

Today, the United Nations launches an appeal of $5.6 billion to help millions of Ukrainians whose lives have been shattered by war. The war is far from over. Continued international solidarity is essential to meet humanitarian needs. We are on the ground and will continue to support.

FN:s Flyktingorgan UNHCR: ofta först på plats i en katastrof, alltid kvar så länge som det behövs. En flykting är idag flykting ung 17 år i snitt. UNHCR är med hela vägen.
