🚨World leaders must act NOW on #Gaza & #Rafah . Over 35,000 Palestinians killed, no safe spaces left, no aid getting in, hospitals destroyed. Too many red lines have been crossed and time has run out. Enough is enough. #CeasefireNOW

It’s nearly impossible to deliver humanitarian aid in Gaza, but we won’t stop trying. No matter what, we remain steadfast in our call for a ceasefire and our commitment to deliver meaningful aid and support to Palestinians. #LetAidIn #EndtheSiege #CeasefireNOW

Overcrowding, poor hygiene, and a lack of clean water in Gaza are causing widespread infectious diseases. Our teams report severe ailments, particularly in children. This is an unprecedented humanitarian disaster. #CeasefireNow 📷: ©Shadow Pro for Mercy Corps

The first batch of COVID-19 vaccines have arrived in northwest Syria as part of #COVAX ! This is an exciting first step, but there is still a long way to go.

Intense overcrowding, deteriorating hygiene and lack of access to water, sanitation and health care are spreading infectious diseases. Even if they manage to escape bombs and bullets, people are dying of hunger and disease. End the siege. Let aid in. #CeasefireNOW .

Conflict and back-to-back climate shocks have pushed more than 21 million people in Ethiopia into humanitarian need this year. Donors must do more to address the worsening food insecurity, displacement, and protection situation.

The closing of Rafah crossing means no fuel, which means no trucks, no generators, no clean water, no electricity, no movement of people/goods—it also means no aid. We are witnessing a man-made hunger catastrophe inching closer to famine each day. This MUST stop. #CeasefireNOW
