Just signed: Operational Framework Agreement with the Islamic Development Bank to scale up impact for conflict-affected communities. At the annual meeting of the IsDB Group in Algiers, we also launched the 2025 Resilience Report addressing conflict and climate risks.

It has been more than 600 days since hostages were taken from Israel. Their endless nightmare and suffering in captivity must stop. They must be reunited with their anxiously awaiting family members or brought home for a dignified burial.

The humanitarian situation in Gaza is beyond catastrophic. Six hundred days of hostilities, coupled with severe restrictions on the entry and distribution of humanitarian relief, continue to inflict immense and widespread suffering on civilians. icrc.org/en/news-releas…

The natural environment is not a silent casualty of armed conflict. International humanitarian law protects it, because when ecosystems are destroyed, human lives and livelihoods are at risk too. Protecting nature means protecting civilians. #WorldEnvironmentDay
