ICAN condemns U.S. & Israeli attacks on Iran

3/ As stated by ICAN's @melissaparke01.bsky.social all military action must stop immediately and the solution to ending both the risk of nuclear proliferation and the use of nuclear weapons is by taking action to end them, joining the #NuclearBan Treaty.

ICAN condemns U.S. & Israeli attacks on Iran

🧡1/ ICAN condemns the illegal attack by nuclear-armed states, the US and Israel, on Iran. These attacks are totally irresponsible and risk provoking further escalation as well as increasing the danger of nuclear proliferation and use. #NuclearBan

2/ Any peace plan for Ukraine must also be a peace plan for nuclear disarmament. If we simply freeze the front line and leave nuclear threats untouched, we are accepting that this can happen again in Ukraine, or somewhere else. Read more here: www.icanw.org/four_years_o...

🧡4 years ago, on 24 February 2022, Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. For Ukrainians, this week marks the start of a fifth year of war – of loss, displacement and destruction that words can barely describe. Read more here: www.icanw.org/four_years_o...

β€œStop tinkering at the edges”: Melissa Parke and Jane Kinninmont on nukes in the UK Parliament
YouTube video by International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons β€œStop tinkering at the edges”: Melissa Parke and Jane Kinninmont on nukes in the UK Parliament

#Multilateralism and #NuclearBan, two key words that Melissa Parke emphasised in her meetings with parliamentarians in the UK like Jane Kinninmont. As rightly highlighted, it is time to stop tinkering around the edges and take concrete action to prevent nuclear war.

3/ For countries interested in security, a good place to start would be in joining the majority of the world in advancing the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

🧡From London to Munich, it's been a busy time! ICAN's @melissaparke01.bsky.social joined MPs, world leaders and civil society to address the urgent need for nuclear disarmament. At the @munsecconf.bsky.social she stressed that genuine security doesn't come from the threat of annihilation #NuclearBan

2/ Nuclear justice matters and the #NuclearBan Treaty is the only treaty that recognises these harms and calls for victim support and environmental cleanup.

The New Start Treaty, the last remaining nuclear arms control agreement between the US and Russia, ends today @melissaparke01.bsky.social explains why without it, there is a real danger of a new nuclear arms race accelarating between the US and Russia.

Did you know that between 1945 and 2017, more than 2,000 #NuclearTests were conducted at sites now located in 15 countries? Till date, the devastating long-lasting, and in many cases severe, impacts of the test are still felt.

βŒ›οΈThe Doomsday clock is 85 seconds to midnight. Nuclear risks are rising due to arms control faltering, nuclear arms expansion, and dangerous rhetoric.

But as @melissaparke01.bsky.social puts it, the Clock is a warning, and humanity can still change course.
