Two cases of paralysis caused by vaccine-derived poliovirus have been confirmed in children in Al-Mayadin, Deir ez-Zor. Officials say the cases do not constitute an epidemic but they are a warning: gaps in routine immunization and Syria’s war-damaged health system continue to leave children unprotected. Health teams have vaccinated more than 34,000 children under five in affected areas. MedGlobal works with the Syrian Ministry of Health, UNICEF, WHO, and Gavi to support Syria’s National Immunization Program, including cold-chain management, vaccine transport, community engagement, and primary health care. Protecting every child requires sustained investment in routine immunization and health-system recovery. Read the full press release: medglobal.org/syria-polio-ca…

A rainy morning in Gaza City, through the eyes of one of our team members on his way to work. Winter has barely begun, yet heavy rainfall is already flooding displacement shelters and leaving families exposed to increasingly harsh conditions. For those living in makeshift tents and damaged buildings, the consequences extend beyond the immediate flooding. Exposure to cold, contaminated water, and inadequate sanitation can increase the risk of respiratory infections and waterborne diseases, particularly among children. With months of winter ahead, ensuring access to adequate shelter, clean water, sanitation, and essential medical supplies is an urgent public health priority. Help us provide essential healthcare to families in Gaza this winter. Donate today: medglobal.org/donate/

Abdullah and his family had to flee their home as conflict intensified in Yemen. Today, they live in Al-Firdous Camp, where Abdullah works at MedGlobal’s medical point, providing care to other displaced families. Around 700 families now live in the camp. “We receive approximately 60 to 70 patients daily,” Abdullah says, including 10 to 15 pregnant women. But as more families arrive, the demand for healthcare is growing, and essential medicines are running short. Help Abdullah and his colleagues continue providing care to families who need it.

“There is improvement, definitely, but there is a huge fragility. People are dying just waiting for treatment.” MedGlobal President and CEO @sahloul recently spoke to @NCRonline reporter @camillobarone97 about food insecurity in Gaza, improvements in malnutrition since the October 2025 ceasefire, and how those gains could be lost all too quickly.

As Breast Cancer Awareness Month comes to an end, the need for accessible cancer care in Gaza remains. Receiving a cancer diagnosis is only the first step. But what happens when specialized treatment is out of reach? With major hospitals damaged or out of service, patients in Gaza continue to face severe barriers to accessing the care they need. Awareness matters. So does access to treatment.

From November 6–9, MedGlobal will join partners from around the world in Istanbul for the Every Pregnancy 2026 Partner Convening, presented by Humaniti. Together, we'll explore one important question: What can we achieve for mothers and newborns that none of us can achieve alone? We look forward to sharing ideas, strengthening partnerships and turning collective ambition into action. This year, the @EveryPregnancy coalition has grown to more than 80 organizations across 25 countries, collectively mobilizing over $135 million to advance maternal and newborn health. We're proud to be part of this growing movement. Every pregnancy, safe. #EPConvening

“I wish the days were like before.” For children in Gaza, conflict, displacement, and the disruption of everyday life have made even the simplest parts of childhood difficult to hold on to. Yet even in these circumstances, children continue to find ways to play. When our team met a group of children outside their tents, they were busy turning cardboard boxes into makeshift rackets, using what was available to make a game of their own. Their wish is simple: to return to school, see their friends, and enjoy the childhood they once knew. As families across Gaza continue to face limited access to healthcare and essential services, MedGlobal is providing medical care and nutritional support to communities in need.

"It brings such a sense of relief to talk about something you went through, to share it with people who lived through the very same experience." Not every wound is visible. But every wound needs treatment. In Syria, MedGlobal - with the support of Humaniti - is providing mental health support to former detainees. Watch to see how that support is changing their lives.
