Why does Syria's renewal matter for the United States?

UNHCR Deputy High Commissioner @kellytclements.unhcr.org explains in Real Clear World. bit.ly/48KiKO2
Leaving home is never easy.

For millions fleeing Sudan, it was their only choice.

What they carry with them is more than belongings — it’s hope for safety, and the strength to start again.

When a missile hit Natalia’s home in Ukraine, her family was fast asleep.

They barely survived, but their house was destroyed, and the winter cold quickly set in.

Thousands of families like Natalia’s are struggling to rebuild.

Support is running out.

After escaping brutal fighting, families in Sudan are now running out of time.

Children are hungry, parents are desperate, and communities are cut off from aid.

They need protection, safety and humanitarian access. Now, not later.

After years of exile, Syrians are returning home — the largest movement back in years.

But many are coming home to destroyed houses and shattered lives.

Hope is rising, but more support is needed. Let’s make sure hope doesn’t fade. unh.cr/65eb19aa0

Humanitarian workers must be allowed to reach people in urgent need across Sudan.

Civilians must never be targeted. Aid convoys must never be blocked.

Respect for international humanitarian law is an obligation, not an option.

Brutal violence in El Fasher, Sudan, has forced thousands of people to flee, leaving many trapped and facing serious protection risks.

Reports of executions and sexual violence are growing. Civilians must never be a target. International humanitarian law must be respected-now.

“We thought there would be enough food.”

Refugees in Kakuma are safe, but hunger still follows them.

UNHCR works with @wfp.org to help families access food and school meals so children can learn, grow and hold on to hope.

It’s been over two years since the war broke out in Sudan and created one of the worst humanitarian and displacement crises in the world.

The needs are as urgent today as ever.

The world must #KeepEyesOnSudan.
