Rescuers scramble to find survivors in the village of Besnia in Syria, following the catastrophic earthquakes that struck both Türkiye and Syria on 6 February, killing thousands and injuring many more. “UNFPA is committed to support the people of Türkiye and Syria affected by the earthquakes, including the pregnant women who are expected to give birth in the coming weeks under these difficult conditions,” said Dr. Natalia Kanem, Executive Director of UNFPA. “Their ability to access quality care before, during and after delivery must not be an afterthought.”

A newborn baby—who was found still tied by her umbilical cord to her mother—was pulled from the rubble of a home in northern Syria. Now receiving medical care at a clinic in Afrin, Syria, the infant is the sole survivor of her immediate family. Among the millions of people in Türkiye and Syria who have been affected by the quakes are tens of thousands of pregnant women who need access to maternal health services.
