Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the current crisis in the Middle East. The humanitarian crisis in the Middle East is a major challenge for the international community. The Arab Spring, which began in Tunisia, marked a pivotal shift in the Arab world, as people demanded their rights and called for political reforms. The movement spread throughout the region, with citizens in various Middle Eastern countries seeking to address their basic needs. Tunisia was the only country to achieve its goal of overthrowing the political system and implementing democratic reforms. In contrast, other countries continue to struggle against their governments. The governments of Syria and Yemen responded to the protests with violence, resulting in numerous casualties and driving many citizens to join radical militias, which ultimately led to civil wars in both countries. The term “Middle Eastern humanitarian crisis” emerged as the conflict intensified and devastated the region. By 2015, as fighting escalated between rebel factions and government forces, millions of people fled the region, seeking refuge in Europe. After nearly a decade of civil war and widespread destruction, millions remain homeless, and the international community continues to grapple with the refugee crisis and the search for a resolution to the Middle Eastern humanitarian disaster. This situation highlights the global interconnectedness: when the Middle East faces political, economic, and humanitarian crises, other parts of the world—especially Europe—are inevitably impacted, as people flee in search of safety, with Europe often being their primary destination.
