In response, we have sustained our neutral, impartial, and independent humanitarian activities to protect and assist people affected by conflict and violence. To address the most urgent needs of affected people, we have maintained our countrywide approach in Tigray, Amhara, Oromia, Somali, and Afar regions. Our efforts in all these regions are strengthened by working in close coordination with the Ethiopian Red Cross Society (ERCS), our principal partner as part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.
We have also maintained contact with the parties to the conflict and other actors to garner acceptance and support for our humanitarian mission. Our constructive dialogue with the parties is based on the needs and vulnerabilities of persons affected by conflict and seeks to uphold international humanitarian law. It focuses on humanitarian issues of concern, advocating for the protection of affected people and delivering much-needed assistance to alleviate their suffering in accordance with our principles of humanity, impartiality, and neutrality.
