answer text <p>Following the February earthquakes, the UK continues to focus on providing urgent life-saving and life-sustaining assistance to those in need, as well as early recovery activities, including emergency rehabilitation under the UN Flash Appeal. We will not provide any reconstruction assistance until the regime and its backers have engaged seriously with the UN-backed political process. Our funding is being delivered by trusted partners, including UN agencies. The FCDO has rigorous and robust checks to ensure aid goes to the people that need it, delivers value for money and protects against aid diversion.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK remains committed to the safety and security of refugees, including Yazidis in North-East Syria and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Due to the shifting circumstances on the ground we are not in a position to make an accurate estimate of their number. When appropriate we raise the troubling humanitarian situation in refugee camps with the relevant authorities. Durable solutions must be pursued for displaced populations, including return, relocation, or local integration, where appropriate. We regularly raise this with the relevant authorities, the Iraq Government, UN bodies, international partners and our development programming in Iraq will support these efforts.</p> more like this
