⚖️Speaking withr Deutsche Welle, our Director Simon Panek succinctly expresses why the proposed legislation on ‘foreign entities’ has no place in a free, democratic society.

💬"We are living in a free democratic country with existing laws. And this [foreign agent law] is the instrument that authoritarians and dictators use to control society. Not without reason is it called a Russian law,"

5/ We support water trucking for nutrition centres & nearby communities to ensure to safe water. Additionally, community ovens enable families to bake fresh bread & other baked products. Please donate to our SOS Gaza Emergency Appeal Donate - once www.peopleinneed.net/donate/once?...

4/ Three nutrition centres we support are screening people for moderate & acute malnutrition, providing treatment, and awareness and counselling sessions.

3/ Together with @alliance2015.bsky.social partners @welthungerhilfe.bsky.social and CESVI, local partner Juzoor & the Czech MFA and with SOS Gaza Emergency Appeal funds, we work to prevent malnutrition and strengthen food security for communities in #Gaza.

2/ Almost 250k children and 37k pregnant & lactating women in #Gaza are projected to suffer acute malnutrition and require treatment in 2026.

1/ The humanitarian situation in #Gaza remains fraught despite the ceasefire. Although food availability has improved, prices remain high, & with 80 percent unemployment, most families cannot afford enough food.

2/ Discover their resilience, and the meaning behind the objects: ukraine.peopleinneed.net/en/witnesses... Supported by the Czech people, @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu, Swiss Dev Coop, and the American people. #Resilience #Ukraine #StrongerTogether

1/ 🪪A business card to a long-gone address. 🔑A key to a destroyed house. What do these items mean, 4 years after Russia's invasion of Ukraine? For 6 people, they are the link between a lost past & a new life.

Hospitals across #Ukraine fight to save lives—and sometimes, to keep the lights on. With support from the US State Department, we provided Kyiv Regional Clinical Hospital with a power system that keeps ICUs running during power cuts.

In Kherson, thanks to the Czech people, we’re delivering 2,934 stoves & 29,340 gas cylinders to people left with cold homes because of Russia’s attack on civil infrastructure.

So far, we’ve supported 2,169 people from the community. “The support arrived with the first snowfall, exactly when we needed it most,” says Haji Akhtar. Find out more www.peopleinneed.net/relief-and-d...

✅  Cash assistance to cover urgent winter needs ✅ Winterisation kits with blankets, stoves, and fuel ✅ A solar-powered water system and improved sanitation facilities ✅  Catch-up classes for 164 children ✅  Psychosocial support sessions for parents

With funds from @Stichting Vluchteling, we assisted returnee families—as well as host communities nearby—with emergency support, including:

With winter approaching, families like Haji Akthar’s had no proper heating, limited safe water and sanitation, and many children were out of school.

After decades of immigration, 70-year-old Haji Akhtar and his family returned to #Afghanistan with almost no possessions. They settled in a returnee camp in Maidan Shahr.

In Berestyn, Kharkiv Oblast, 447 students of Lyceum No. 4 study in shifts: one week in a shelter and one week online. We equipped 2 sheltered classrooms with support from the Czech Republic. 3 more are being prepared with EU funding. More shelter space = more lively learning.

3/ With our @alliance2015.bsky.social partners @welthungerhilfe.bsky.social and CESVI, our local partner Juzoor, and funds from the Czech MFA & our SOS Gaza Emergency Appeal, we run two ovens to help prevent malnutrition & strengthen food security in Gaza.

2/ These ovens help preserve dignity by letting families prepare their own meals; they also create local livelihoods by employing bakers from the community.

1/ This is a community baking oven in Gaza. Families bring homemade dough, and trained local bakers assist them in baking fresh bread and other staples.

Watch how cash assistance helps Afghan families survive today while education brings hope for tomorrow.

1/2 Naqeeba, Humaira, Saeeda, Feroza, and millions of Afghan women in returnee camps, villages, & classrooms support their families and communities with hope, strength, & resilience—even in difficult times.

🛠️👷With funds from our SOS Syria Emergency Appeal, we rehabilitated the water station & equipped it with a solar power system. Now, 4,000 residents will have safe drinking water. Please donate www.peopleinneed.net/donate/once

🚰The main water station in Miznaz in northwest #Syria was extensively damaged during 14 years of war, depriving local communities of safe drinking water.

1/2 In January, armed clashes in northern #Syria forced tens of thousands from their homes, leaving them struggling to cover basic needs. With @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu funds, @peopleinneed.bsky.social provided 300 families in Aleppo’s Ashrafiyeh neighbourhood with one-off $150 cash assistance.

👋Meet Tetiana, head of one of 125 families in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast we helped with @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu-funded cash-for-fuel. 🇺🇦Tetiana, a retired nurse, helps her village with their medical needs. Cash-for-fuel means she’s not worried for herself and can do more for her neighbours.

2/2 As part of the campaign, we installed an Instagram-themed photo frame to provide children & parents with a fun and interactive photo opportunity. Join us in celebration of a return to education! #PINEiE

1/2 In #Syria we, with @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu funding, organised a #BackToSchool campaign for 5189 children and their parents. We highlighted the importance of education, promoted girls’ education, and guided participants on how to register for our Temporary Learning Centres.

At Kyiv Regional Clinical Hospital, we are ensuring emergency care is unaffected by power cuts. With the support of the American people, we provided a backup power supply to keep life-saving operations going.

👉In Kharkiv: bombed houses, while sirens sounded, the people didn't even flinch s. Not because they don't care, but because they have adapted to life at war.

👉 In Kryvý Rih: children who spend part of their classes in shelters, and a school principal, who described their everyday reality. 👉 In a village near the front: the sounds of heard explosions and drones overhead. He also saw traces of war, destroyed infrastructure everywhere

📹 The Czech influencer Lukefry recently visited Ukraine because he wanted to see the truth for himself. ❓ What did he experience? 👉In Kyiv: blackout and sirens.

With funds from @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu we help strengthen family resilience, give them freedom of choice, and support the local economy across northern #Syria through cash-based interventions. Read more www.peopleinneed.net/strengthenin...

After nearly 14 years, the war in #Syria is over, but the humanitarian needs remain acute. 1 in 4 Syrians is affected by extreme poverty 3 out of 4 depend on humanitarian aid 5.1 million remain internally displaced

This is possible thanks to the support of 🇪🇺 @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu

The war is over, but the humanitarian crisis is not. Seeing the reality on the ground in #Syria together made that painfully clear. I asked my colleague Martina for her thoughts on @peopleinneed.bsky.social support for communities and what the future holds. This is what she shared.

Welcome to Bluesky @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu — great to have you here!

In Prague? Come join us and #StandWithUkraine

On Sunday, they also delivered drinking water to Invincibility Points located in schools in the Desnianskyi, Dniprovskyi, Sviatoshynskyi, and Holosiivskyi districts. These supplies are for people who come to warm up, charge their phones, and get through the cuts to essential services.

🌡️On Monday, our team at People in Need Ukraine delivered 20 heat pumps to five Invincibility Points on the left bank of the city, where heating and electricity disruptions are felt most severely. The equipment will help ensure that people have a warm place to stay.
