.@WHO urges all parties to the conflict to: facilitate the free movement of injured patients, ambulances & health workers; protect health facilities & personnel; sustain the flow of life-saving resources; and enable the return of humanitarian organizations to resume their efforts
The right to health is a fundamental human right. Everyone should have access to the healthcare services they need, whenever and wherever they need them. #WHO75 #HealthForAll
Happy World Health Day from WHO Syria Country Office Team #WHO75 #HealthForAll

Dr @ImanShankiti, @WHO Rep. in Syria: “This country has faced many challenges in the last 12 years It is unacceptable what is happening right now. We need to change the narrative, rebuild the health system to endure difficulties, and respond to the needs” #health_for_all #enough
“The silent suffering of the Syrians has caused the world to forget their plight. They deserve to be remembered and supported.” - Dr Iman Shankiti, @WHO Representative to Syria
«بسبب تحمل السوريين لمعاناتهم في صمت، نسى العالم محنتهم. إنهم يستحقون أن نهتم بهم وندعمهم". الدكتورة إيمان الشنقيطي، ممثلة منظمة الصحة العالمية في سورية

@WHOEMRO @WHO @UNinSyria @UNICEFinSyria @UNICBeirut @OCHA_Syria @DrTedros @UNHCRinSYRIA أدَّت الحرب التي طال أمدها والعقوبات إلى افتقار العديد من المستشفيات إلى المعدات الطبية الحيوية. ولو كانت هذه المعدات تعمل، لكان بالإمكان إنقاذ المزيد من الأرواح. الدكتورة إيمان الشنقيطي، ممثلة منظمة الصحة العالمية في #سورية
In northwest #Syria, 64 mobile clinics and 20 mobile teams have reorganised their coverage across 7 districts affected by the earthquake.
Thousands of people suffering from chronic diseases such as diabetes & heart conditions are now displaced with little to no access to medicines & health care. WHO has supported the mobile clinics deployed to almost 200 shelters across Aleppo providing nearly 16,000 consultations.
وفي شمال غرب سوريا، أعادت 64 عيادة متنقلة و20 فريقًا متنقلًا تنظيم تغطيتهم في 7 مناطق متضررة من الزلزال.
Today, another charter flight arrived at Damascus airport carrying essential health items including medicines and supplies to address the trauma needs and response to the cholera outbreak in Syria.
To date, @WHO has delivered 128 tonnes of medicines and critical health supplies to the affected areas in Aleppo, Latakia, and Hama. These resources will provide 450,000 people with medical treatment, and health care to 125,000 trauma patients.
In Syria the earthquake has had a devastating impact on the health, safety, and well-being of communities.
"نحن السوريون ليس من طبعنا الاعتماد على المساعدات أو المنح. وأيا كان الجانب الذي يعيش عليه السكان في هذه المنطقة الحدودية، فهم بشر ويستحقون الحياة."–أحد الناجين كان النظام الصحي يعمل بنسبة 51٪ فقط عندما وقع الزلزال. نحن بحاجة إلى إعادة بناء نظام صحي قادر على الصمود من أجل الجميع
“We are Syrians. We are not used to depending on aid. Whatever side of the border people live on, they are human & deserve to live.” – Survivor The health system was only 51% functional when the earthquake struck. We need to build back a resilient health system for all Syrians.
"نطاق الأضرار والصدمات النفسية يفوق أي شيء واجهناه خلال الحرب." – أحد الناجين. تضرر أكثر من 91 مرفقًا صحيًا من جراء الزلزال. وتقدر المنظمة أن الاستجابة لاحتياجات الناس في الأشهر الثلاثة القادمة تحتاج حوالي 18 مليون دولار.
“The scale of the damage and psychological trauma is beyond anything we ever faced during the war.” – Survivor. 91+ health facilities were damaged by the earthquake. An estimated US$ 18M is required in the next 3 months to respond to the peoples’ needs.
"وبالرغم من كل ما واجه الشعب السوري، فهذه هي المرة الأولى التي أرى فيها رجالاً بالغين يذرفون الدموع لإدراكهم أنهم فقدوا كل شيء مع انهيار منازلهم أمام أعينهم." – أحد الناجين. مع وجود الآلاف الذين يعيشون في ملاجئ مكتظة ، فإن خطر انتشار الأمراض المعدية مرتفع.

Yesterday, the emergency committee for #mpox met and recommended to me that the outbreak no longer represents a public health emergency of international concern. I have accepted that advice, and am pleased to declare that mpox is no longer a global health emergency.

@WHO @WHOEMRO @UNinSyria @UNICBeirut @OCHA_Syria @DrTedros @UNICEFinSyria The immediate needs include shelter, healthcare, water, sanitation, and hygiene services. They also need mental health and psychological support to overcome the trauma, and devastating sense of loss.
@WHO @WHOEMRO @UNinSyria @UNICBeirut @OCHA_Syria @DrTedros @UNICEFinSyria An estimated half a million people over 97,000 households were displaced, many of them living in formal collective shelters and in informal settlements with little or no services.
Despite a challenging operating environment, the UN and partners have scaled up their response massively and continue to provide emergency relief, shelter, food, medical supplies, thermal blankets, psychosocial support and other life-saving items in the most impacted districts.
