A year after the devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria, the aftermath continues to affect the lives of many. The earthquakes killed tens of thousands, displaced around 660,000 children, and left many living in temporary shelters. The slow reconstruction in Turkey has raised doubts, with reports of displacement and harsh living conditions. In Syria, the humanitarian situation has deteriorated, with around 1.5 million more people needing assistance due to conflict and natural disasters. Meanwhile, violence near the disputed Sudan-South Sudan border has claimed about 40 lives, with a catastrophic humanitarian situation reported in Sudan's North Darfur state, where children are dying from severe malnutrition.
