The scars from conflict are both physical and mental. We are working to heal both. That's why, with our partners @swisscross.foundation, we continue to provide treatment for wounds like burns and fractures for patients in #Sinjar #Iraq.

Ahmad was just six months old when an RPG tore through his family’s home in Syria, setting fire to his cradle and leaving him with 60% burns and severely damaged limbs. Today, thanks to @SWISSCROSS he's finally learning to walk. bit.ly/41oim0y

Heart breaking to see little children suffering from injuries for years with no resources to get treated. This is why I love working with @SWISSCROSS . First official Swisscross visit to Mosul which is still suffering from post ISIS devastation

Just over two months ago @EnriqueSteiger operated on 7 year old Ahmed who was badly burned in a gas explosion. He lost much of the function in his hands. Today he is able to move his fingers and his scars are healing nicely. #ReconstructiveSurgery #BurnTrauma #Refugees
