🗣️ La transformación de los #SistemasAlimentarios requiere trabajo conjunto.
Hoy, Gobierno, Sistema de las Naciones Unidas y actores clave se reunieron para avanzar en la actualización de la Hoja de Ruta Nacional de Sistemas Alimentarios, con un enfoque sostenible y resiliente.

“A crisis within a crisis,” @WFP’s @SamerWFP tells me food insecurity is worsening across the region, as the @UN warns that 32 million people could fall into poverty even if the Iran war ended right now.

[World Food Programme @WFP]

WFP teams are on the ground and ready to scale up operations across the Middle East.

Regional Director @SamerWFP says the humanitarian situation is changing rapidly, as displacement grows and supply routes come under strain. https://t.co/vugDiulaFL

[WFP GCC @WFP_GCC]

🇶🇦 WFP GCC extends heartfelt thanks to the State of #Qatar for its generous annual flexible contributions. This vital support enables us to save lives in the nick of time and respond swiftly and effectively to hunger crises across the world.

[World Food Programme @WFP]

Lifesaving humanitarian work - especially in conflict situations - depends on the safe, unhindered, movement of humanitarian supplies and people.

Humanitarians are #NotATarget.

Not today. Not tomorrow. Not ever.

[Tom Fletcher @UNReliefChief]

An appalling attack on our convoy. Full support to courageous @WFP @UNICEF colleagues carrying out this vital work in tough conditions.

We insist on accountability, and protection for humanitarian workers.

[Corinne Fleischer @Corinne_WFP]

This tragedy should never have happened.
The wheat flour in that warehouse was brought in just days ago for bakeries, very limited quantities to get bread to people in #Gaza.

To prevent chaos, aid must flow in steadily.
When people know food is coming, desperation turns to calm.

[World Food Programme @WFP]

Wishing a blessed and peaceful holy month of #Ramadan to all who celebrate.

💛🌙 Ramadan Kareem!

[World Food Programme @WFP]

We are deeply alarmed by the escalation of violence around Zamzam camp in #Sudan's North Darfur. Families already face #famine amid relentless fighting.

There is no time to lose. The fighting must stop. We need safe and unhindered access to all those in need.

In a first, WFP has moved enough food for 80,000 people into #Sudan via the White Nile river.

WFP teams are doing everything they can - using every route available - to reach families facing famine amid the country's conflict.

WFP's Mary-Ellen McGroarty explains ⤵️

[World Food Programme @WFP]

#GazaCeasefire: WFP trucks started crossing into Gaza via Zikim and Kerem Shalom crossings. The first trucks carried life-saving wheat flour and ready-to-eat food parcels for people in desperate need.

WFP aims to deliver food daily along humanitarian corridors that include Egypt, Jordan and Israel crossing points.

This ceasefire is critical for the humanitarian response. Safety, and access must be ensured.

[WFP Supply Chain and Delivery @WFPSupplyChain]

Humanitarian operations are becoming more complex.

@WFP's global footprint and strong supply chain enable us to respond quickly and to reach those most in need.

🎥 Watch as @SamerWFP explains.

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE: A @WFP convoy, clearly marked & carrying 8 team members, was shot at by Israeli forces near Wadi Gaza despite prior clearances. Humanitarians are #NotATarget!

We MUST have safe, secure access to continue delivering life-saving aid.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Even in the darkest hours, @‌UN personnel are a constant beacon of hope and light.

As 2024 draws to a close, I pay tribute to them, particularly those who made the ultimate sacrifice in carrying out our vital mission.

We will always carry their memory in all we do.

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

Shocked and heartbroken by the loss of three @WFP team members in an aerial bombardment in Blue Nile State, Sudan. Any loss of life in humanitarian service is unconscionable.

Aid workers are not – and should never be – a target. #NotATarget

Children in #Gaza have experienced the worst of humanity. The horrors of war and the hunger that comes with it. The hotmeals #WFP provides to kids in Gaza helps ease the ache of empty stomachs, provides a little comfort and the strength to face another day

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

.@WFP teams across Syria are staying & delivering lifesaving support, despite the escalating situation. As one of the largest humanitarian actors on the ground, we're continuing to scale up, ensuring food reaches people in need wherever they are.

Humanitarians must be protected.
