Meghan Markle, Prince Harry speak out amid Taliban takeover in Afghanistan, Haiti's earthquake aftermath

On Tuesday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex took to their Archewell Foundation website and encouraged followers to unite and support organizations “doing critical work” to help those in need.

"The world is exceptionally fragile right now," they wrote. "As we all feel the many layers of pain due to the situation in Afghanistan, we are left speechless. As we all watch the growing humanitarian disaster in Haiti, and the threat of it worsening after last weekend’s earthquake, we are left heartbroken. And as we all witness the continuing global health crisis, exacerbated by new variants and constant misinformation, we are left scared." "When any person or community suffers, a piece of each of us does so with them, whether we realize it or not," the royals shared. "And though we are not meant to live in a state of suffering, we, as a people, are being conditioned to accept it. It’s easy to find ourselves feeling powerless, but we can put our values into action — together."
