ICRC delivers the first batch of emergency relief to Iran The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it dispatched 171 metric tonnes of essential relief items to the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS). The organisation said it marked one of the first cross-border humanitarian deliveries to the country in six weeks, bringing essential household items to more than 25,000 people. “At a time when humanitarian needs remain high across the country, we hope this shipment will bring some relief to communities enduring the devastating impact of the conflict,” said Vincent Cassard, head of the ICRC delegation in Iran.
