About This Disaster

A fast-moving escalation of hostilities involving the United States, Israel, and Iran is impacting countries across the Middle East. Civilians are facing repeated air raid alerts, missile/drone strikes, injuries and loss of life, disruptions to air travel and daily commerce, and rising strain on already-fragile health and emergency systems.


Beyond the immediate physical danger, families are also navigating information and security risks: unreliable social media claims, manipulated media, and rapidly changing safety guidance can put people in harm’s way. Communications disruptions and heightened cyber activity have been publicly noted alongside the conflict, increasing the importance of verifying updates through trusted sources and maintaining basic digital safety practices.


Organizations are mobilizing to support people caught in the middle—focused on urgent needs like medical support, safe shelter, food and water access, protection for children, and help for displaced families.


Operation Blessing has also stated it is mobilizing resources and staff in the region to assist affected families.
