"Policy makers can fall prey to simplistic responses and populist narratives without these stories presented in the Mixed Migration Review"- Charlotte Slente, Secretary General, @drcngo.bsky.social

I spoke with Charlotte Slente, the head of @drcngo.bsky.social, about her recent visit to eastern Chad to meet with Sudanese refugees. The situation is "horrifying," she said, while urging the international community to do more to help end the civil war in Sudan. foreignpolicy.com/2025/11/20/s...

Less-fire, not ceasefire. 1 year since the ceasefire agreement, Lebanese families continue to live in fear. Together with over 70 INGOs in Lebanon, DRC calls for an end to all violations, and to prioritize the protection of civilians: reliefweb.int/report/leban...

A new report by DRC and PARC, based on a survey conducted in the West Bank, warns of intensifying attacks by both settlers and the Israeli military. Communities are routinely targeted—constituting grave breaches of international humanitarian law : brnw.ch/21wX1vL

Escalating violence in El Fasher puts 260K civilians at risk after 2 yrs of siege. Nearly 3K fled in 36 hrs—mostly women & children. Humanitarian access is urgent. Attacks must stop. Our Secretary General's appeal to the international community: brnw.ch/21wWZv5

At @aa-stabilisiert.bsky.social meeting, DRC shared insights from #Afghanistan, urging adherence to humanitarian principles. Over 2M returnees from Iran & Pakistan need long-term support—livelihoods, climate resilience & recovery—led by communities themselves.

Honoured to join PARC at the @aa-stabilisiert.bsky.social talks on humanitarian priorities. We shared how integrated aid in Gaza—led by local partners—can reach more people, use resources better, and build trust, dignity, and resilience even in the toughest conditions.

With this ceasefire, the Danish Refugee Council calls for political will and concrete action to ensure access and protection for civilians. The ceasefire is only a first step. Gaza cannot recover under siege, and Palestinians cannot heal without justice. Read the full statement: brnw.ch/21wWvSp

"The Islam Qala reception center is a pit stop for exhausted and disoriented Afghan families. Many are still in shock—unable to understand why they have been uprooted from their lives and brought to Afghanistan" Read our SG's piece on @newsweek.com www.newsweek.com/a-forgotten-...

Our staff were in #Gaza City last week and the conditions they witnessed are catastrophic. With winter approaching, bringing cold and rain, urgent action is required. A rapid and substantial scale-up of humanitarian assistance is desperately needed.

🤝Joint NGO Statement As world leaders gather in New York for the 80th UN General Assembly, we call for decisive action to address the worsening crisis threatening to push millions of families beyond the brink of catastrophe: brnw.ch/21wW2Ko

🛑 Israel’s mass evacuation order is forcing desperate and starving Palestinians in Gaza to flee once again. 🔉Our staff report overcrowding in displacement sites, a severe lack of food, non-food items and tents and a large increase in family separations.

1 year after the escalation of hostilities in #Lebanon, Israeli military operations continue daily in the south - despite the ceasefire agreement of 27.11.2024. DRC & other NGOs call for an immediate end to hostilities & the protection of civilians. See full statement: drc.ngo/resources/ne...

One year ago, our colleague Manuel Alejandro Tique was detained while delivering aid to vulnerable communities in Venezuela. From the Danish Refugee Council, we raise our voice for his release. His family, friends, and colleagues need him back. #AlejandroIsAHumanitarian #NotATarget

Israel has ordered the mass displacement of the entire Gaza City - 800,000 starved, bombed, and uprooted Palestinian people must flee with nowhere safe to go. This breach of international law demands urgent global action before Gaza city is erased and the death toll soars even higher 🔗 rb.gy/ksreng

We demand an end to this man-made famine and use of starvation a weapon of war by Israeli authorities. The answer is simple, let in principled humanitarian aid at scale. The world can no longer watch without acting as this catastrophe unfolds + the Palestinian people continue to suffer #Famineingaza

On 20 August 2025, the Ashan Falasteen site in Gaza City, managed by DRC and our partner FAFD, was hit by Israel. DRC is extremely worried about the launch of a large scale offensive by Israeli forces in Gaza City and the continuous targeting of civilians and displacement sites.

#ActForHumanity now.

The new Israel’s registration rule unlawfully requires INGO to submit sensitive data, including Palestinian staff and donors details. It is not only a serious obstruction to the delivery of aid – it is unsafe, violates humanitarian principles and must be stopped brnw.ch/21wUW0I

A new front has opened in the world’s most devastating displacement and hunger crisis. The latest clashes in the El Fasher area of Sudan have forced civilians to flee and seek refuge in neighbouring Chad, creating a major humanitarian crisis in the border provinces of Wadi Fira and Eastern Ennedi. ⬇️

On 6 August 2025, the Al-Fajr displacement camp site in Deir al-Balah, managed by DRC and our partner PARC, was hit by an Israeli drone strike. 📍 5 people killed 📍 16 injured, nearly a third are children

Nearly 50 years in exile. The Sahrawi people in Tindouf are among the world’s longest-displaced, yet remain largely forgotten. At DRC, we work alongside them to restore dignity and resilience.

Press release. A new survey of Palestinians in Gaza by DRC shows a population at breaking point: starvation and mass displacement have resulted in widespread physical exhaustion and a catastrophic mental health emergency. drc.ngo/resources/ne...

Millions of Afghans have been forcibly returned from Iran this year. At Islam Qala crossing, over 20,000 people arrive daily—many injured, exhausted, and in distress. Urgent humanitarian support and funding are needed to meet critical needs.

The IPC warns that the worst-case scenario of famine is currently unfolding in the Gaza Strip. This is no time for smokescreen solutions or empty words. Time is running out for the people of Gaza. To prevent mass starvation, aid must be allowed in immediately and at scale.

We mourn our partner colleagues who were killed in #Gaza— four among the 479 humanitarian workers killed since October 23. Israel’s ongoing brutality against civilians, carried out with impunity, must end. We demand accountability. Read their stories: drc.ngo/resources/ne...

JOINT STATEMENT: The EU's recent 'safe country' proposals appear to be part of a broader strategy to externalise the EU’s migration management. With 50+ NGOs, we're calling on the EU and member states to reject any attempts to weaken protection for asylum seekers.

🎤 Press release 🔎Our AI-powered Foresight model predicts that, as a consequence of major donor funding cuts, an additional 3.9 million people could be displaced in 2025—doubling new displacements to a staggering total of 7.85 million people. All details: drc.ngo/resources/ne...
