"UNHCR has declared the escalating crisis in the Middle East and as a major humanitarian emergency requiring an immediate response across the region and into Southwest Asia. The recent escalation of hostility and attacks in the Middle East had triggered significant population movements while the clashes along the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan have also forced many thousand families to flee. The affected regions already host nearly 25 million people as refugees, internally displaced people, or refugees who have recently returned from home."

The escalating crisis in the Middle East has become "a major humanitarian emergency", a senior official of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) told a regular press briefing on Friday.

According to Ito, authorities reported that about 100,000 people left their homes in the first two days after the United States and Israel launched strikes against Iran, but the figure is likely a significant underestimate.
