The 🇬🇧 Rishi Sunak James Cleverly🇬🇧 must act now to prevent further atrocities in Gaza & Israel before it's too late We are witnessing devastation on a scale not seen in modern times in Israel & Palestine New Op Ed from me Omar Shakir Akshaya Kumar 🔽 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…


Last week #RSF & allies militia killed 100s civilians in Ardamata, #WestDarfur, one more act of cruelty against civilians in #Sudan. Good Josep Borrell Fontelles spoke up yesterday. EU should urgently sanctions leaders & commanders of #RSF & #SAF responsible for massive human suffering.


Hospitals must be protected. Unverified claims of their military use are alarming and would unlawfully put civilians at risk. But that wouldn't strip patients & doctors of their civilian protections. Evacuation is a last resort. And fuel must be allowed in youtube.com/watch?v=Qt6qaC…

Away from the headlines, the situation in Sudan is dire: - More than half the population in need of aid - Violence against civilians - Outbreaks of cholera, dengue, malaria and measles - More than 70% of health facilities in conflict areas out of service apnews.com/article/sudan-…


11,100 people dead in Gaza - how does one even fathom it? This phenomenally powerful piece of work by my colleagues Ruby Artur Galocha + Júlia Ledur brings home the sheer scale of the loss better than anything I have seen. washingtonpost.com/world/interact…






🚨 The UN Security Council must vote for a #CeasefireNOW Today's resolution vote may be the last opportunity for the international community to act to protect Gaza's civilians. U.S. Mission to the UN UK at the UN 🇬🇧🇺🇳 President Donald J. Trump Rishi Sunak


“A self-determined life for women and girls in Afghanistan is not possible under the current regime.” Switzerland becomes the 4th country to automatically grant asylum to Afghan women. More should do the same—and create pathways for women/girls to escape. swissinfo.ch/eng/politics/s…

The UNSC is voting on a Gaza humanitarian access resolution this afternoon. Amnesty International calls on all UNSC members to adopt the resolution. Any use of their veto power will translate into more killings, starvation, sufferings. President Donald J. Trump Department of State must support the res. #CeasefireNOW
