These supplies help strengthen life-saving operations during the crucial 72-hour rescue window. An additional AH&H Disaster Response Team is arriving Sunday, equipped with essential response supplies and Starlink connectivity kits to strengthen response capacity on the ground.

Our priority during the next days is to save lives by delivering clean water, food, generators, hygiene supplies, masks, emergency shelter materials, tents, connectivity support, and other essential relief items while continuing to assess evolving needs, coordinate closely with local authorities and partners, and ensure assistance reaches the communities most affected. We will keep doing everything possible to support survivors.
