Further information: The money aims to enable the European Union to continue its support for emergency relief in areas just retaken from extremists, including for families who lost their homes. It also goes towards emergency medical services providers attending to injured civilians on the frontlines. This brings the total EU humanitarian assistance given to Iraq since 2015 to €340 million. The European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid announced on 13 July 2017 the allocation of a further €30 million in additional funding to assist and protect civilians in Iraq. |
