$110-MILLION AID DEAL WITH THE INTERNATIONAL RED CROSS

Australia has renewed a $110-million aid deal with the International Red Cross, as the organisation revealed more disturbing details on the conflicts in the Middle East. Its new report found deaths in Iraq, Syria and Yemen accounted for almost half of all the total fatalities in the world's conflicts. Titled 'I Saw My City Die,' the new report from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) focused on global conflicts between 2010 and 2015.
