According to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), among the millions of people who have been affected by the earthquake in Türkiye and northwest Syria, tens of thousands of pregnant women need access to maternal health services.
On 6 February, two big earthquakes with 7.8 and 7.6 magnitudes, respectively, hit areas of Türkiye and Syria.
UNFPA was immediately on the ground assessing the impact and preparing to support the emergency response in coordination with authorities and partners.
Thousands of buildings, including UNFPA-supported safe spaces for women and girls, were severely damaged or destroyed.
UNFPA’s urgent priority is to restore services that are crucial to the health and well-being of women and girls.
Two UNFPA trucks with life-saving reproductive health supplies crossed the border from Türkiye into Syria and have arrived in Idlib.
The supplies will be distributed to 170 health facilities across earthquake-affected north-west Syria.
