On #WorldHumanitarianDay, representatives of the 🇪🇹Government, the United Nations, and humanitarian partners joined together to honor the courage, dedication, and selfless service of aid workers and volunteers who stand with communities in times of crisis.
#ActForHumanity
This was a hospital.
This was a bank.
This was a car.
Civilians are #NotATarget. Neither are the civilian spaces we all depend on.
#WorldHumanitarianDay 🕊️
Today, across Ethiopia, we take the opportunity to honour humanitarian workers who have lost their lives and stand in solidarity with those serving communities affected by crises.

I can’t eat what I have • I have to know what it is I have first 🤷🏽♂️ TELL ME QUICK!
