Relief Workers in Action
Red Cross workers aid a man injured in the bombing of Tyre, Lebanon, in July 2006 after Israeli warplanes attacked Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon. One of the purposes of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is to provide aid to civilians caught up in war zones or political strife.
