The #UN statement was signed by the heads of the UN humanitarian, health, food, rights, migration, refugee, development, children and women’s agencies, among others.
‘Empathy is the glue that makes us united.’ ❤️ @FranceskAlbs @UN_SPExperts
🚨In her address to the 🇺🇳 UN General Assembly’s Third Committee, Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs told those delegates who had ignored the crisis in #Gaza "Is it possible that after 42,000 people killed, you cannot empathize with the Palestinians?"
"There is no viable alternative to #UNRWA. @UNRWA is the absolute backbone of the humanitarian system in #Gaza." 📻Listen back to @KarolBalfe speaking on @TodaywithClaire, @RTERadio1 ⤵️
Listen back to @KarolBalfe CEO of @Actionaid_Ire speaking on @TodaywithClaire on why the outrageous Israeli ban on @UNRWA operating in Palestine will be catastrophic for the people of #Gaza and the West Bank who are already living through hell. rte.ie/radio/radio1/c…
If you watch anything today let it be this. This man is speaking for his people and every single person who is standing in complete solidarity with Palestine. Let his voice be heard around the world. United We Stand 🇵🇸🕊️🇵🇸
To share this seems inhumane. But the act of silence in the face of annihilation of the Palestinian people is so immoral, so removed from humanity, so deathly cruel. Journalists across Gaza are risking their lives to show the world, what the regime of evil has done, is doing, and…
🆘🆘 from our @UNRWA staff in northern #Gaza. Nearly three weeks of non-stop bombardments from the Israeli Forces as the death toll increases. Our staff report they cannot find food, water or medical care. The smell of death is everywhere as bodies are left lying on the roads…
After giving birth, a mother was faced with an impossible choice while fleeing violence in El Fasher: Either go to Chad with her newborn baby or stay behind to take care of her other children. Nobody should have to make those choices while seeking safety. #TalkAboutSudan
'This is our land, we deserve it': Dozens of Israelis planning to cross border and settle in Gaza Read more🔗 trib.al/cY5yJK5
“What has happened to the world? What has happened to our sense of justice, of decency, of basic human compassion? How much more suffering do the Palestinian people have to endure before the world says “enough” and finally steps in to stop this?”

Words can't capture aspects of the horror of Palestinian life during the current starvation campaign by Isr. Nor do words alone adequately provide a vision for a better future for Palestinians & the world. ➡️Illustrations from my newest report: ohchr.org/sites/default/… 🧵 /1
It’s time to unseat the Israeli govt from the UN General Assembly, as was done to South Africa 50 years ago. As I argue in this piece, Israel’s denial of the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination provides a strong basis for this move /n verfassungsblog.de/unseating-the-…
Below is the full text of the 1974 ruling by GA President Bouteflika (Algeria) on South Africa's credentials ⬇️ The ruling was challenged & then upheld by 91 votes in favour, 22 against & 19 abstentions.

Couldn’t agree more @CaitrionaMullan and #wps is a strand of this research With 25th anniversary coming up, the coercive context to women’s lives & to gendered violence needs more recognition, particularly in conflict & peacebuilding. Thank you 🙏
Report👇🏽by @AislingSwaine with @FoyleWomensAid on paramilitary-related gendered coercive control = global relevance for #UN Security Council Res 1325 on Women & Peace & Security.Measures sidestepping the power relations that enable gendered violence in conflict will always fail.
