Immediate survival is a priority, but we’ll start now to jointly plan the long, hard journey of rebuilding – because people can’t be left without protection when the next crisis comes. What people really need right now is a roof over their heads and emergency food supplies to feed their children. ” It’s hard for many of us to imagine the devastation from these earthquakes. Even harder in places impacted by ongoing conflict. But earthquake survivors are facing this as well as freezing weather and the cost of living crisis – with rising fuel and food prices.

In Syria, the cities of Aleppo, Latakia, Hama and Idlib have been badly hit by the earthquake and severe aftershocks. The scale of destruction is vast.

There’s been huge loss of life, thousands injured, and many more still buried in the debris. The harsh weather and damaged roads make rescue efforts challenging.

So far... Essential items including blankets, food kits, stoves, hygiene items and power banks have been distributed to affected families. Basic facilities such as toilets and showers for families living in temporary accommodation have been installed. Oxfam-KEDV’s network of women’s cooperatives across affected areas are preparing hot meals for their communities with food and cooking equipment with our support. Preparations are underway to fix a large water storage reservoir which serves a temporary accommodation centre for up to 30, 000 people. Inequality in a crisis Social inequalities show up starkly in disasters, with the most marginalised worst hit.
A fragile situation has been made even worse. This calls on us, and those in power, to urgently stand with people fighting for the basics. People need food, water, shelter, and medical care without delay. In Türkiye, Oxfam KEDV are leading our response. They have worked with both refugee and Turkish communities for years and will be reaching those worst-affected by this disaster.
We have heard from colleagues in the area that buildings that were in precarious positions before this most recent earthquake have collapsed. People have been killed, likely more than the official reported numbers. Hospitals were evacuated as a precaution against a possible tsunami, which, thankfully, did not occur. How Oxfam KEDV and partners are responding Oxfam-KEDV partners and cooperatives continue to provide items to meet people's basic needs, and focus on those who are in more immediate need in the areas affected by the most recent earthquake and aftershocks.
The earthquakes will have deepened risks already facing women, children, older people, LGBTQIA+ people, people with disabilities and people with refugee status – those often unseen, unheard, and most excluded from society. And it’s the voices of communities affected which are too often ignored when dealing with a crisis. They know best about what’s needed – from survival to recovery, to speaking out against underlying causes that makes them so vulnerable when disaster strikes. Oxfam KEDV and Oxfam in Syria have been working on gender inequality for years. With KEDV rooted in women’s movements, and the team in Syria having a strong gender justice team, this experience and focus is a vital part of our response.
