Following the terrible loss of life in Pittsburgh, IRC President David Miliband said: "We are appalled that anti-Semitism, and it seems hatred of refugees, should be fuel for the killing of Jews in America in 2018. We stand with those in mourning, and with our sister organization HIAS, which works alongside the IRC in welcoming refugees to enrich this country."

As the senseless attacks on hospitals and civilians in Ukraine shock the world, lives are also at risk from health crises growing behind the headlines.
