Rich countries are treating the climate crisis as a business opportunity, not a moral obligation. They are lending money to the very people they have historically harmed, trapping vulnerable nations in a cycle of debt. This is a form of crisis profiteering. Quote by Nafkote Dabi, Oxfam International Climate Policy Lead.

PRESS RELEASE: Two thirds of climate finance is loans, as rich countries profiteer from climate crisis💰

New research finds poor & climate vulnerable countries are paying back 7 USD for every 5 they receive.

Update: Oxfam has received further info that Tasneem's child, Baqi, was killed on 20th, in the Israeli airstrike which killed her, the couple's other two children & unborn child.

Tasneem's husband, critically injured in the attack, underwent major surgery but succumbed to his injuries.

Israeli attacks kill Oxfam partner colleague, destroy clinics in Gaza.

Israel’s destruction of 3 Oxfam partner premises this week underscores the threat to Gaza’s humanitarian workers and facilities, including services to protect pregnant women.

Famine confirmed in part of Gaza for first time, UN-backed body says The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) raised its classification to Phase 5, worst level on its food insecurity scale.

"The famine in Gaza is entirely driven by Israel’s near-total blockade of food and vital aid — the horrifying consequence of Israel’s violence and its use of starvation as a weapon of war."

🚨REACTION: Famine is confirmed in Gaza Governorate and projected to spread to Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis by the end of September, @theipcinfo.bsky.social warns.

"NGOs have no guarantees that handing over such information would not put staff at further risk, or be used to advance the government of Israel's stated military and political aims," they said, in a statement issued on Thursday.

#Gaza

Israel locks aid groups out of Gaza as Palestinians starve, say NGOs Israel has threatened to ban nonprofits from Gaza unless they hand over details of their Palestinian staff, 100 NGOs say in joint statement.

"Most humanitarian groups have not been able to deliver any aid since March 2, despite Israel’s claims there are no limits on humanitarian aid entering Gaza, the NGOs said in a joint statement on Thursday."

"NGOs have no guarantees that handing over such information would not put staff at further risk, or be used to advance the government of Israel's stated military and political aims," they said, in a statement issued on Thursday.

#Gaza

Israel threatens to ban major aid organisations as starvation deepens.

100+ organisations call for an end to Israel's weaponisation of aid.

Oxfam has over $2.5 million worth of goods that have been rejected from entering Gaza by Israel - including food aid.

www.oxfam.org/en/press-rel...

The aid deal is a diplomatic smokescreen. A handful of trucks is symbolic at best, an insult at worst.

What is needed is a full, safe, predictable and constant flow of aid, along with the opening of all land crossings and a ceasefire, for this to be a proper aid response.

Sweden urges EU to suspend trade ties with Israel over Gaza Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson says the humanitarian situation in Gaza is “utterly deplorable.”

We said it again and again, the EU must suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement.

"The mere fact that the EU can’t even agree on the smallest step possible … is a joke," Bushra Khalidi‏, the policy lead for Oxfam in the Palestinian territories, told Playbook.

The promise of "progress" rings hollow when there is no real change on the ground.

The EU and EU countries can and must save lives before there are none left to save.

#LetAidIn #Gaza

Earlier this month, the EU agreed on an aid deal with Israel.

The deal was meant to ensure 'aid at scale' will be delivered.

Two weeks have passed, yet we have yet to see a single one of the commitments being meaningfully implemented.

#Gaza famine alert demands international action against Israel to stop mass death.

www.oxfam.org/en/press-rel...

🚨REACTION: Responding to Gaza airdrops and Israel’s announcement of a "tactical pause," Oxfam says what’s needed is the immediate opening of all crossings for full, unhindered, and safe aid delivery across all of Gaza.
