Conflicts tear, but friendships heal ❤️ Young Ibrahim lost his leg to a landmine while fleeing Deir-ez-Zor during the conflict. His friend Mohammad was by his side and surprised him with new shoes after receiving his prosthetic at the ICRC’s PRP at Qamishli National Hospital.

Kids’ curiosity can turn tragic when it’s faced with landmines and war remnants. Children in #Syria risk devastating injuries from unexploded weapons and landmines simply while playing in the outdoors.

#RamadanKareem  to all those observing. Our thoughts are especially with those suffering because of armed conflict, in the Middle East and elsewhere in the world. #Ramadan  is a time of peace and hope - which are needed now, more than ever. #رمضان_كريم
