Osnabrück/Berlin, 12/12/2024-After the fall of the Assad regime, Syria is at a turning point. 13 years of civil war have left deep traces. The widespread feeling of departure mixes with poverty and uncertainty about the future, especially children suffer from hunger, diseases and the loss of family members. »The Syrian population has endured unimaginable suffering in recent years. Now, according to the case of the regime, quick and effective humanitarian aid is needed, especially for children and families, «says Joshua Hofert, spokesman for the board of Hommes.
Our sister organization Terre des Hommes Italy has been providing humanitarian aid in Syria since 2006 and will now be significantly expanded. Children should definitely get food and given the coming winter a roof over their heads if their house should be destroyed. Numerous boys and girls are very scared and need psychogical care to mentally process the experience of war and violence. Many of them also have the catastrophe from February 2023 when the devastating earthquake destroyed entire cities. So that the children can learn again and return to a normal life, schools and community centers should also be built.
"The political situation in Syria is still very uncertain," said Joshua Hofert. "We therefore ask all democratic parties to get involved in the reconstruction of the country and not lead a premature return and deportation discussion."
