The International Blue Crescent Relief and Development Foundation (IBC), with extensive experience in responding to emergencies and recovery situations in Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, and Indonesia, has mobilized its emergency response team to Libya. On-site assessments have identified various areas in need of assistance.
