Today on Health and Relief, Recovery and Peace Day, @ICRC, @MSF and @Refugees stand together to call for accelerated action for those living on the frontlines of the climate crisis.

Climate change is an existential threat to all of us. But those least responsible for global heating are being hit the hardest. People who: - are forced to flee. - are caught up in violence or conflict. - lack access to health care.

We are deeply troubled that our humanitarian convoy in Gaza City came under fire today. It was carrying lifesaving medical supplies to health facilities, including Al Quds @PalestineRCS hospital. Under IHL, humanitarian workers must be protected. 👇 bit.ly/3FN2sEf


Catherine Grayson Reposted

Our message @ICRC is simple: save lives and preserve humanity, on both sides, no matter who or where. The current humanitarian situation for huge numbers of civilians in #Gaza is incompatible with life and dignity and is simply unconscionable. We urge the parties to de-escalate.

I am shocked by the intolerable level of human suffering and urge the parties to the conflict to de-escalate now. The tragic loss of so many civilian lives in this conflict is deplorable. This is a catastrophic failing that the world must not tolerate. icrc.org/en/document/is…

Humanitarians broadly agree on the humanitarian principles’ meanings and their utility. But what are the principles’ origins and true legal character? @MarinaSharpe walks us through the history in today's @ICRC_LawPolicy post 👇 blogs.icrc.org/law-and-policy… @NMelzerICRC @lunegrayson


A much needed critical review of numbers on climate-induced displacement - and on the use of big numbers in the humanitarian sector in general. devex.com/news/opinion-u…

The recent earthquake in #Türkiye and #Syria has left tens of thousands of people dead. Like in all large-scale disasters people often mistake the unfounded risks posed by the dead. The facts are 👇 (1/3) #earthquake

📢 New policy paper alert! In our recent @ICRC paper on urban violence and urban warfare, we provide recommendations for 3⃣ key areas. These outline the need for humanitarian actors to work with the city and not just in the city. How?

Unacceptable, never again #NotATarget

We are shocked and saddened by the loss of a @RedCrossUkraine volunteer due to the recent shelling in the Kherson region. Our thoughts are with their staff, volunteers and family at this devastating time. 🔴Humanitarian aid workers and volunteers are #NotATarget. EVER.
