رئيس الجمهورية العماد جوزاف عون لوفد الاتحاد الدولي لجمعيات الصليب الأحمر والهلال الأحمر:
• يجب الضغط على إسرائيل كي تحترم القوانين والاتفاقيات الدولية والكف عن استهداف المدنيين والمسعفين والدفاع المدني والهيئات الإنسانية الصحية والاغاثية.
• الانتهاكات الإسرائيلية مستمرة في الجنوب على رغم الإعلان عن وقف اطلاق النار، وكذلك هدم المنازل وأماكن العبادة وجرفها، فيما اعداد الضحايا والجرحى يرتفع يوما بعد يوم.
• الاعتداءات لا تستثني المسعفين والمتطوعين الذين سقط منهم حتى الان نحو 17 مسعفا من الصليب الأحمر اللبناني وهيئات إنسانية أخرى، فضلا عن استهداف الإعلاميين.
• ما يقوم به المتطوعون لإنقاذ المصابين، عمل يشكل قمة التضحية وبذل الذات في سبيل الرسالة الإنسانية التي آمنوا بها، وصولا الى حد الاستشهاد على رغم ان المهمات الانقاذية التي يتولون تنفيذها يتم الإبلاغ عنها مسبقا لتأمين الحماية اللازمة لها.
• اجدد الدعوة الى مساعدة لبنان في معرفة مصير الاسرى اللبنانيين في السجون الإسرائيلية والتي ترفض إسرائيل حتى الان السماح للجنة الدولية للصليب الأحمر بالتواصل معهم والاطمئنان عن صحتهم وطمأنة ذويهم والدولة اللبنانية.
Our medics were not missing… they were buried.
Buried beneath a silence heavier than words, and beneath pain beyond endurance.
The survivor, Asaad Al-Nassasra, speaks—his voice bearing witness to loss;
to companions who left with him on a humanitarian mission, but he returned alone… leaving them under the soil without a farewell.
And on March 30, 2025, the truth emerged as it is:
bodies concealed, souls departed, and a wound that will never close.
They were deliberately killed by Israeli occupation forces.
This is not a story of survival…
but a testimony to a tragedy that will remain.
We @ifrc are proud to have partnered with the @QRCS in delivering a dynamic workshop focused on strengthening capacities in Planning, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (PMER) and Accountability. With over 25 participants attending in person and more than 60 joining virtually, the workshop served as a valuable platform for learning, exchange, and collaboration.
A sincere thank you to the leadership of the Qatar Red Crescent Society for their commitment, and to all participants for their active engagement and contributions.
This successful collaboration reflects our shared dedication to quality programming and greater accountability to the communities we serve.

@QRCS Sec-Gen @Faisal_AlEmadi opens 5-day Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability & Learning workshop, held in cooperation with @IFRC_MENA regional office
We are horrified by this level of cruelty and inhumanity.
@ifrc will always stand with the @PalestineRCS emergency medical teams in their life saving work.
May they rest in peace.
This must stop! And the perpetrators brought to justice.
Thank you @qatar_fund DG Mr Al-Sulaiti and @QRCS SG Mr Al Emadi for the thoughtful discussions on current regional & global challenges, and importantly future collaboration to do more jointly.
“Forgive me, Mom. I chose the path of helping others.”
These were the final words of a @PalestineRCS medic, captured in shocking footage showing rescuers under attack in Gaza.
No one wearing a vest with a Red Cross or Red Crescent should ever be a target.
As @jagan_chapagain said: "In Gaza, independent investigators must be allowed access and given full details of what happened. Impunity in any place breeds impunity in every place".

President @KateForbes_IFRC joined the @RedCrossLebanon on a mission to southern Lebanon & the Beirut suburbs areas heavily impacted by the recent conflict. In Shamaa, Tayr Harfa, and Mreijeh, she witnessed the devastation firsthand but also the unwavering dedication of Lebanese Red Cross staff & volunteers.
At the Lebanese Red Cross branches in Tyre and Mreijeh, @ifrc President met volunteers, heard their stories, & thanked them for their unwavering commitment.
I had the privilege of accompanying our President @KateForbes_IFRC to visit @RedCrossLebanon leadership, staff, and volunteers in Beirut & South Lebanon, and meeting Lebanon’s President, Prime Minister, and Speaker of Parliament. I’ve witnessed the Lebanese Red Cross dedication and sacrifices firsthand during the response to the recent conflict ,and we @ifrc remain committed to supporting them in their life-saving work and helping communities recover.
