#MYANMAR - UNICEF is deeply alarmed by new reports that at least 5 children have been killed and 3 injured following airstrikes in Ponnagyun, Rakhine State and Myinmu, Sagaing State.
Children must be protected at all times.

From sunlight to lifelines ☀️💧
In #Myanmar, UNCERF is supporting @unicef.org to bring clean water through solar power – so children can be in class, not carrying jerrycans.
“This project didn’t just bring water. It brought dignity.”
At a difficult time for humanitarians and the people we serve, we all need some motivation.
My motivation this week comes from these kids I met yesterday in Rakhine State, Myanmar.
They are Rohingya, born in a squalid camp whose boundaries they have never crossed.
And yet they smile and laugh.
Back in Geneva.

Alea told me one of the saddest stories that I have heard in my humanitarian career.
We shouldn’t wait for disasters to strike before mobilizing humanitarian action.

A few years ago, I met 7-year-old Mohibulla outside his neighbour's bullet-scarred gate.
I asked him if he goes to school.
"How can I go to school? It burned down during the fighting."

We are 19% funded – 40% down on last year. Millions going without food, healthcare, protection. Aid workers killed at record levels.
This is an age of indifference – we must reform, regroup, renew. #UNGA80
Briefed journalists on headline crises:
🗨️"Change is essential right now, but we’re not changing in benign waters – we’re changing in the midst of a storm around us.
...We need to fight for what must be saved, and we must imagine what we can be in the future."
