(c) Ukraine and impacted countries crisis
Active since 2014, the armed conflict in Ukraine significantly escalated in February 2022, as hostilities spread to most parts
of the country. The conflict has caused tragic loss of human life, destruction of cities and civilian infrastructure, and
widespread displacement of people inside Ukraine and across its borders with neighbouring countries.
Pertinent information concerning the Ukraine and impacted countries crisis emergency appeal is summarised in the below

An initial appeal of CHF 100 million was launched to enable the IFRC to assist an initial 2 million people displaced inside
Ukraine and people reaching neighbouring countries affected by the conflict. The increase to CHF 550 million was planned
in order to increase the reach of the Red Cross National Societies in Ukraine and other impacted countries to scale up
assistance to 3.6 million people in the immediate term and in their transition to long-term recovery.
The emergency operation has been further increasing the scope of its intervention, working with National Societies in the
region that have requested support from the IFRC to provide technical and financial assistance to people in need. In this
sense, new needs and approaches have been identified with National Societies, which will be reflected in the revision of the
emergency appeal. As per an operations update issued on 7 October 2022, the envisaged revised emergency appeal will
extend the timeframe of the operation until 31 December 2025, with a transition to unified country planning covering all
operations of National Societies thereafter.
Yet to be finalised, a revised emergency appeal will present a substantial increase in funding ask (approximately up to a total
CHF 795 million) as well as in geographical coverage that will include supporting Ukrainian Red Cross Society and 16 other
National Societies of the impacted countries. The IFRC had allocated CHF 1,293,301 from its Disaster Response Emergency
Fund (DREF) including CHF 218,638 allocated on 5 February 2022 that supported the Ukrainian Red Cross Society in its
preparedness efforts. At 31 December 2022, the full amount of the DREF allocation had been reimbursed to the DREF.
