Australian emergency crews are on the ground in Vanuatu. With our search and rescue teams working with local authorities to assist those trapped in collapsed buildings. And our medical assistance teams helping treat the injured.

Some CCTV footage from Vanuatu's earthquake on Tuesday. Really terrifying for all. You can see the moments when the quake surpasses people's usual experience of tremors and becomes something far worse.

Concerned families from overseas got in touch with us through our RFL helpline, wanting to establish contact with their loved ones in Port Vila. We were able to locate individuals and have them call their families to let them know that they are safe. Thank you ICRC and IFRC.

Such great work by Vanuatu Red Cross Society in challenging circumstances. IFRC have 4 surge staff from our Pacific office arriving today in Port Vila to assist and our great partners Rīpeka Whero Aotearoa | New Zealand Red Cross have an IT and telecommunications Emergency Response Unit that just hit the ground.

Thanks to all our partners who help IFRC and our Pacific Red Cross Societies to pre position emergency relief items for moments like these in Vanuatu. Recently, USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance propositioned items which are being distributed today to community members in need.

Five members of our IFRC Asia Pacific team have arrived in Port Vila and are supporting the Vanuatu Red Cross Society and local authorities with the Earthquake response. Our Disaster Mgmt leaders are accompanied by technical staff on providing Shelter, Water, Health and Logistics.

As Vanuatu Red Cross Society assess community needs and distribute vital resources such as water, hygiene kits and equipment to fix dwellings, they are also seeing a lot of fear and trauma. Teams refresh psychological first aid skills before the day begins so they can listen and assist.

Please take care Fiji- especially heed the warnings of authorities not to drive in flood water or attempt water crossings.

Taking a little time to prepare an emergency kit can make all the difference when disaster strikes. Think water, first aid supplies & other essentials your family might need. Check out our simple guide to putting together your own kit: fijiredcross.org/.../do-you-hav… #staysafefiji

The journey to deliver relief to far-flung, so called "last mile" villages is never easy. Rain drenched roads turn into swamps, and every step is a challenge. Even so, the Vanuatu Red Cross Society team pushes on. As much as delivering relief, they deliver hope and the knowledge we care.

Amazing work from Vanuatu Red Cross Society and the Restoring Family Links team providing support for families displaced by landslides and reporting missing loved ones. For those seeking assistance RFL Helpline: ☎️+678 733 2389 / +678 527 6168 📩email: [email protected].

Wildfires & winter storms across the US are stark reminders to prevent & prepare for emergencies. Make a plan. Write down important phone numbers and medications. Download emergency apps and set up alerts. Listen to fire and law enforcement authorities. Be aware.

Thanks to partners like EU Humanitarian Aid | Asia-Pacific 🇪🇺, Vanuatu Red Cross Society is able to be fast, effective and consistent in their ongoing response to community need after the devastating Earquake in Vanuatu on December 17. This support is much appreciated.

I have just spoken to the Secretary Genral of Cook Islands Red Cross. We are tracking TC Pita as its charting a course for Rarotonga. The team will take advance action - helping vulnerable households. Their training hall is a purpose built evacuation centre if required. #tcpita

The Cook Islands Met Service has just reported a downgrading of Tropical Cyclone Pita to a Tropical Low. Southern outer islands and Rarotonga still have strong wind and heavy swell warnings with a chance of inundation. Stay safe all. #tcpita #cookislands

Brilliant experience accompanying Vanuatu Red Cross Society and partner agencies to distribute essentials on behalf of Vanuatu Society for People with Disability. Volunteers and staff all lent a hand to load trucks bound for Mele, where we met families affected by the recent earthquake.

So many wonderful people are doing so much to assist communities affected by the Californian wildfires. Hats off to American Red Cross whose staff and volunteers continue to dedicate themselves to service despite being affected themselves. That's Red Cross- fast, effective and local.
