"How much more blood must be spilled before enough is enough?"

Decision makers remain silent as #Gaza faces unimaginable suffering.

Israel's full blockade on aid is preventing humanitarians from saving people.

The blockade must be lifted. The horror must end.

This is not a drill. Many will die because of aid cuts.
 
The pace and the scale of the funding cuts are a seismic shock to the humanitarian sector. But we will not retreat from our mission.

Grateful for opportunity to brief UN press corps.

Israel’s decision to halt aid into Gaza is alarming.

International humanitarian law is clear: We must be allowed access to deliver vital lifesaving aid. 

We can’t roll back the progress of the past 42 days. We need to get aid in and the hostages out. 

The ceasefire must hold.

Civilians are being killed and displaced in significant numbers by the escalating crisis in eastern DRC.

I've allocated $17 million from UNCERF for life-saving aid.

123 million people displaced. This is just one story of courage and hope.

On #HumanRightsDay, show your solidarity with people forced to flee — and the human right to seek safety from war, violence and persecution.

In Kassala today to meet some of the 60,000 Sudanese who have fled their homes to the province. Sudan is a crisis of staggering proportions, which demands the world’s urgent attention. We need their call for protection to be heard.

A grim milestone. We need to do better at protecting humanitarians as they seek to protect those they serve.

Thursday night spent reading up on the new boss, and his way of thinking and communicating.

So far, loving the positive outlook on tackling some of the most pressing societal challenges of our time.
