Rare variant of 恤

𫀉 is an uncommon written variant of 恤, a Chinese character tied to caring for people in trouble. In a message, read it through 恤 unless the passage is discussing old inscriptions.

Text symbol

What 𫀉 means

It carries 恤's sense of concern, compassion, and relief.

Han Dian lists 𫀉 as the same character as 恤 and gives the Mandarin reading xù. Its documented trail runs through a concordance (an index) of Shang and Zhou bronze inscriptions—texts cast on ancient Chinese vessels. Reference works also give 恤 senses from worrying over someone to providing aid.

Why does 𫀉 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
