MIDDLE EASTIn 2014, ICRC operations in the Middle East focused on address-ing the humanitarian consequences of armed conflicts and other situations of violence and occupation in the region, notably in Iraq, Israel and the occupied territories, the Syrian Arab Republic (hereafter Syria) and Yemen – four of the organization’s largest oper-ations worldwide – and in neighbouring countries affected by the encroaching consequences of the Syrian armed conflict.

To more effectively address people’s needs, the ICRC adapted its humanitarian response, in nature and scale, to the opportunities and limitations afforded by the evolving situation in the countries affected and the region at large. It stepped up its response to the consequences of the Syrian armed conflict, including by opening new sub-dele-gations and an office in Jordan and Lebanon, thereby increasing its proximity to both refugees from Syria and, in Lebanon, people affected by violence. It also expanded its emergency response to the escalating conflict in Iraq, and to the armed hostilities between the Israeli authorities and the Gaza Strip de facto authorities and armed groups in mid-2014. These adjustments were supported by donor funding raised through budget extension appeals launched in the year.

The ICRC’s main partners were the National Societies, which it provided with material, technical and financial assistance to help them strengthen their operational capacities, particularly emergency preparedness/response and family-links services. The ICRC also supported events with similar objectives, for example a regional disaster-preparedness workshop co-organized with the Qatar Red Crescent Society.

Regular interaction with a large network of contacts helped facili-tate acceptance of and support for National Society/ICRC activi-ties. This enabled the ICRC to reach people in Iraqi provinces most affected by the conflict and in some previously inaccessible areas in Yemen. In Syria, however, restrictions imposed by parties to the conflict and widespread insecurity continued to impede ICRC humanitarian initiatives for people in need. Security incidents/threats necessitated adjustments in activities and staff movements; for example, the ICRC closed its sub-delegation in Amran, Yemen. The three ICRC staff members abducted in Syria in 2013 had still not been released by year’s end.

The ICRC developed its relations – through dialogue/networking – with State and de facto authorities, weapon bearers, traditional and religious leaders and other influential players to enlist their support for IHL and other legal norms protecting people and their rights, particularly during armed conflicts and other situations of violence. Whenever possible, the ICRC shared its humanitar-ian concerns with the pertinent parties, emphasizing their obliga-tions under IHL and other applicable norms. In Syria, for example, discussions with the authorities and armed groups, although very limited, emphasized the right of all wounded and sick people to receive medical care. In Iraq, the ICRC reinforced its dialogue with most parties involved in the conflict, including members of the international coalition carrying out air strikes against the Islamic State group. It also stepped up its dialogue with the Israeli authori-ties and with the Palestinian authorities and armed groups on the protection of civilians and civilian infrastructure and on the

In 2014, the ICRC helped over 33,000 patients obtain services at nine ICRC-supported and one ICRC-managed physical rehabilitation centres. These continue to be provided with training and raw materials to manufacture equipment such as prostheses, crutches and wheelchairs.

conduct of hostilities, particularly on the principles of precaution, distinction and proportionality.

Amid the insecurity in the region, dialogue and training sessions with various parties highlighted the importance of ensuring the safety, at all times, of people seeking or providing medical/health care – in line with the Health Care in Danger project. The ICRC documented abuses against medical services – for example, the killing of Syrian Arab Red Crescent volunteers – and, whenever possible, submitted representations to the parties concerned.

With National Societies and health authorities, the ICRC helped ensure that wounded and sick people received appropriate care. It provided first-aid teams, emergency medical services (EMS), hospitals and mobile/field units with supplies and equipment, funding, rehabilitation support, technical advice and training.

National Society staff, community volunteers, government personnel and weapon bearers honed their first-aid skills and understanding of the Safer Access Framework at workshops in the Gaza Strip and in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Yemen. Surgeons and nurses, including those treating wounded Syrians, participated in emergency-room trauma courses and war-surgery seminars in the Gaza Strip, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon. In Syria, where such training could not take place, government restrictions and general insecurity also curtailed the ICRC’s ability to deliver medical assistance across front lines, particularly to areas held by armed groups, where needs were most acute; deliveries in those areas were possible on a few occasions only. Nevertheless, the ICRC provided medical supplies to Health Ministry-managed hospitals and to National Society-run mobile health units.

Border health posts/clinics in Jordan, and hospitals in Jordan and Lebanon, attended to weapon-wounded people from Syria using ICRC material and financial support. The ICRC helped improve the quality of health services available to these people by opening a clinic at a border registration facility in Jordan and two surgical/post-operative centres in Lebanon. The Lebanese Red Cross EMS provided first-aid and blood-bank services and medical evacua-tions, with ICRC financial/material support.

Wounded and sick people in Iraq, including in areas hardest hit by the conflict, and in the Gaza Strip, especially during the hostilities in mid-2014, obtained treatment at hospitals and other facilities provided with medical supplies and equipment. In the Gaza Strip, the ICRC also facilitated patient transfers, and the entry of medical materials from the West Bank; the Palestine Red Crescent Society EMS – backed by increased material, financial and technical ICRC support– administered first aid and transported patients to hospital. Wounded Palestinians evacuated to Egypt received treatment at ICRC-supported hospitals.

Infrastructure rehabilitation and other support aimed at more sustainable results helped improve hospital services. On-site technical guidance was provided to the staff at selected hospitals in Egypt, the Gaza Strip, Iraq and Yemen. Similar support helped primary-health-care centres in Iraq and Yemen sustain and strengthen their services, including mother and child care. In both countries and in the Gaza Strip, over 100,000 people with physical disabilities benefited from ICRC support for rehabilita-tion services. Training and material assistance helped rehabilita-tion centres, device-manufacturing units and technical schools enhance the quality of their work. To help prevent mine-related

injuries among civilians, the Iranian and Iraqi National Societies, and Jordan’s mine-action committee, conducted risk-awareness/mitigation sessions with ICRC support.

Water and sanitation projects helped ensure that people had access to clean water and improved their hygiene and health conditions. By implementing these projects with local authorities, the ICRC encouraged community ownership while building local capacities. Over 15.8 million people in Syria – almost 65% of the country’s pre-conflict population – benefited from large-scale ICRC emergency support for local water boards, which included water-trucking and emergency repairs. Similar support benefited some 2 million people in Iraq and 1.7 million in the Gaza Strip. Improvements to supply/distribution facilities helped boost access to water for over 1.1 million people in Yemen and for 730,000 residents and Syrian refugees in Jordan and Lebanon, where such projects also eased tensions and pressure on host communities.

Particularly vulnerable people – especially IDPs, refugees and host families – in the Gaza Strip, Iraq, Syria and Yemen received food and essential household items distributed, whenever possible, with the National Societies. They included over 5.8 million people in Syria, and some 509,000 people in Iraq, who augmented their diets with food rations. Gaza Strip residents whose houses had been destroyed or severely damaged during the hostilities in mid-2014 received household essentials. Covering needs unaddressed by other organizations in Egypt, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon, the ICRC provided food, essential household items and cash/vouchers to refugees from Syria, including Palestinians.

People also regained some self-sufficiency thanks to inputs that helped them establish or resume a livelihood. Vulnerable house-holds in the Gaza Strip, Iraq and Yemen increased their incomes by using agricultural supplies to boost harvests or by participat-ing in cash-for-work projects. In Iraq, 841 disabled or female breadwinners started small businesses using cash grants. Some 1,500 households in the Gaza Strip resumed farming thanks to the ICRC-supported restoration of their land and greenhouses. By engaging with the authorities on policies adversely affecting certain vulnerable populations, the ICRC also helped bolster community resources and resilience. It shared, with the Israeli and the Palestinian authorities, the findings of its studies on the conse-quences of restricted movements of goods and people on liveli-hoods in the occupied Palestinian territory. In Iraq, partly because of ICRC advocacy efforts, the authorities resumed registrations of female breadwinners in the State allowance system.

ICRC delegates visited detainees in Bahrain, Iraq, Israel and the occupied territories, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Qatar and Yemen. In total, they visited 95,091 detainees according to the ICRC’s standard procedures, monitoring the detainees’ treatment and living conditions. They shared their findings confidentially with the authorities and made recommendations, particularly on improving detainee health care. Discussions and local/regional workshops with the detaining authorities focused on issues such as administrative detention, judicial guarantees, the principle of non-refoulement and health in detention, including respect for medical ethics. The ICRC pursued efforts to visit more detainees in the region, particularly in Egypt, but made little progress. In Syria, while it visited detainees at four central prisons, it continued to seek regular access to all places of detention, including those operated by armed groups. An agreement on comprehensive access to all detainees in Yemen awaited formal approval.

In the Gaza Strip, Iraq, Lebanon and Yemen, the ICRC provided technical/material support and helped repair detention facilities, improving detainees’ living conditions. Former Syrian troops interned at a facility in Jordan benefited from improvements to the facility’s electrical/water systems.

Residents, IDPs, detainees, refugees and asylum-seekers main-tained/restored contact with their relatives through Movement family-links services. Families in Egypt and Yemen called relatives held in Afghanistan or in the US interment facility at Guantanamo Bay Naval Station in Cuba. Some 7,010 Palestinians detained in Israel received visits from their relatives living in the occupied territories. In all, 2,570 people returned home or resettled in third countries using ICRC travel documents. With the ICRC acting as a neutral intermediary between the authorities concerned, students crossed the demarcation line between the Israeli-occupied Golan and Syria proper. The ICRC also facilitated people’s movements across locations in the occupied Palestinian territory.

When requested by the families, the ICRC submitted enquiries to pertinent parties in Egypt, Iraq or Syria regarding people allegedly arrested/detained. In Syria, the fate of thousands of people remained unknown to their relatives, as only a few enquiries had been answered so far.

With the ICRC acting as a neutral intermediary, the parties concerned continued their efforts to ascertain the fate of people missing in relation to the 1980–88 Iran-Iraq war and the 1990–91 Gulf War. Joint excavations by Iranian and Iraqi experts, conducted with ICRC support, led to the recovery and repatriation of hundreds of human remains. Although several missions were conducted, no remains were recovered in relation to the 1990-91 Gulf War. In Lebanon, ante-disappearance data continued to be collected from the families of missing persons, although the political situation delayed government action on the recommendations of an ICRC assessment of the families’ needs. The ICRC helped strengthen forensic and human remains management capacities in Iraq, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Kuwait and Lebanon.

The ICRC worked in partnership with the League of Arab States – based in Cairo, Egypt – and with the region’s national IHL commit-tees, including newly established ones in Bahrain and Iraq, to raise awareness of IHL and international human rights law and to promote their implementation through national law and their incorporation in the doctrine, training and operations of armed/police forces. It worked with civil society members to broaden their knowledge of and support for IHL, humanitarian principles and the Movement. In Israel, interaction with civil society included efforts to engage in public discussions about certain occupation policies.

The delegation in Jordan remained a key logistical hub for ICRC operations in the Middle East and beyond. The regional training centre provided services to ICRC staff in the Middle East, the Balkans and the Caucasus. The regional resource and communica-tion centre in Cairo helped organize regional IHL seminars and produced multimedia Arabic-language IHL material.

To maximize the impact of its activities, the ICRC coordinated with Movement components, UN agencies and other humanitarian practitioners.
