OCHA is seeking $23 billion immediately to save 87 million people and ultimately $33 billion to support 135 million across 50 countries in 2026. The largest requests target the occupied Palestinian territory at $4.1 billion for 3 million people, $2.9 billion for 20 million in Sudan, and $2.8 billion for 8.6 million linked to Syria. UN data show 2025 funding sank to about $12 billion, the lowest in a decade, forcing what officials called brutal choices and resulting in 25 million fewer people reached than in 2024. The UN will solicit government pledges over the next 87 days, with plans to broaden outreach to civil society and the private sector if gaps remain. Officials warn that escalating access constraints and attacks on aid workers threaten delivery, prompting fresh calls for stronger protection and accountability.
