Due to a lack of fuel in #Gaza, people are resorting to dangerous methods that cause serious public health risks and environmental damage.

We're doing our best to deliver critical supplies, but our work is being systematically obstructed.

Today:

➖ #Gaza: Aid entering just a fraction of what is needed, despite tactical pauses

➖ #Sudan: Conflict, food insecurity, disease and floods continue to inflict heavy toll on civilians

➖ #Syria: Clashes in As-Sweida Governorate hamper humanitarian access, aid delivery

This is Tawila, in North Darfur, #Sudan.

A small community overwhelmed by hundreds of thousands fleeing violence and famine in besieged El Fasher.

People lack food, water and shelter. Cholera cases are rising.

Humanitarians urgently need $120M to meet the scale of the crisis. bit.ly/40qG9Ps

Today’s humanitarian update:

Fuel is a lifeline for people in #Gaza right now.

It determines the continuation of critical services.

More fuel and supplies must be allowed to enter – safely, at scale and without impediments.

U.N. Relief Chief: Gaza is a man-made famine, the politics is a sideshow | CNN Christiane Amanpour speaks with Tom Fletcher, U.N. Emergency Relief Coordinator, about the “desperate… impossible conditions” inside Gaza and what he says are the “bureaucratic impediments” preventing...

Gaza is starving.

We want to believe sustained international pressure will allow us to save as many lives as possible in Gaza. But so far we’re not seeing the scale of change we need.

We're getting ahead of potential drought in #Guatemala – unlocking $4 million from the UN Central Emergency Response Fund to act before crisis peaks.

With the Government of Guatemala and partners, we’ll support over 51,000 people with cash, food and health interventions.

Thanks to Piers Uncensored for the chance to debate the reality in Gaza.

Enough of the distractions: we need to surge lifesaving aid at scale.

There's a window now to deliver truckloads of life-saving aid in Gaza. We're mobilized to do it. And we can save lives with it. We've done it before.

Today's humanitarian update:

➖ #Gaza: Unilateral tactical pauses alone not enough to meet immense needs

➖ #Somalia: Clashes empty entire town as violence continue in Hirshabelle and Jubaland States

➖ #Haiti: UN and partners mobilized as new cholera cases reported

To support people in dire need across #Gaza, our ground teams still depend on how well the Israeli authorities facilitate their movements.

Without access, humanitarians cannot carry out critical actives – it's as simple as that.

📽️Here's how it looks like⬇️

📍In #Gaza:

🔴 The worst-case scenario of #famine is unfolding
🔴 Starvation, malnutrition and disease are driving hunger-related deaths
🔴 We need an immediate ceasefire and unimpeded, large-scale, life-saving humanitarian access – now.

The world must act to stop this.

A step in the right direction but the needs are enormous. Gaza is starving.

We need secured routes and restrictions lifted to deliver life-saving assistance – a ceasefire and full access across all border points.

Today - 28/07/2025 - BBC Sounds News and current affairs, including Sports Desk, Weather and Thought for the Day.

Spoke to BBC Today. Welcome openings on Gaza aid delivery but we need massive and urgent scale up to stop starvation and medical crisis.

From 8:10 👇

This is progress, but vast amounts more aid needed to stave off famine and a catastrophic health crisis in Gaza.

Across UN agencies and humanitarian community, we are mobilized to save as many lives as we can.

Welcome announcement of humanitarian pauses in Gaza to allow our aid through. In contact with our teams on the ground who will do all we can to reach as many starving people as we can in this window.

We need to end starvation in Gaza, get hostages home, secure ceasefire that restores hope of two state solution.

This can be done. For our part we’re relentlessly focused on practical aid delivery.

Here’s why aid isn’t getting through, and what’s needed to save lives. ⬇️

Enough. Gaza is starving. Ceasefire now. We must save as many lives as we can – and we have a plan.

This is what happens when lifelines are taken away.

🚨 Starvation is spreading in #Gaza.

This is 6 month old Salam.

Suffering from severe acute malnutrition, she arrived at a @unrwa.org clinic for treatment. She died later that evening.
