OCHA highlights the dangers posed by the escalating conflict in the Middle East and its impact on the already dire humanitarian situation in Syria.

The SHF is preparing to launch a $12 million reserve allocation to support vulnerable communities whose needs have intensified due to the recent influx from Lebanon.

The economic situation is likely to further deteriorate in Syria, exacerbating already high levels of acute food insecurity and negative coping mechanisms.

As of 26 October, 55 cases of acute water diarrhoea (AWD)/suspected cholera had been reported in Al-Hasakeh Governorate, including 45 in Al Hol Camp.

Wildfires impact lives, livelihoods, properties and infrastructure in Homs Governorate.
