“People are desperate, hungry and terrified.”

— @UNRWA chief @UNLazzarini warns of a deepening crisis as people struggle amid deplorable living conditions and alarming levels of hunger never before witnessed in Gaza.

Lebanon: The impact of unrelenting, overlapping crises continues to worsen, increasingly robbing children of their education & forcing many into child labour.

New @UNICEF data shows deterioration in almost every aspect of children's lives in the country. https://t.co/imt5uUHIqX

A thread on some of the key trends in today's ITT data:

Secondary is HALF of target. Target has gone up (method change that now rightly accounts for previous shortfalls) but key point is that recruitment is 22% lower than before the pandemic

[United Nations @UN]

“There is a high risk of the total collapse of the humanitarian support system in Gaza, which would have devastating consequences.”

– @antonioguterres warns that the conditions for the effective delivery of humanitarian aid in Gaza no longer exist. https://t.co/mgIWu1Mciw

[United Nations @UN]

English teacher education census results have just been announced by the @educationgovuk. Secondary programmes figures look concerning yet again.

[Jack Worth @JackWorthNFER]

Official Government data shows quite how dire the teacher training recruitment situation is in England right now, with only half the required secondary trainees recruited and 15 out of 18 subjects failing to meet their targets

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General.

Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.

@Greg_Dryer @LiamTeachCoach @HelenJe63185798 “Indeed, these results lend credence to a common rule‑of‑thumb often used by economists who study mega‑events: if one wishes to know the true economic impact of an event, take whatever numbers the promoters are touting and move the decimal point one place to the left.”

[United Nations @UN]

“The international community needs to insist with one voice on a ceasefire, immediately, on human rights & humanitarian grounds.”

Gaza: Around 2.2 million people need urgent food assistance.

@WFP is distributing all the aid it has inside Gaza, but without safe access, fuel & connectivity, its ability to help those in need is severely limited. https://t.co/il7vhTfowX

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

UNRWA staff are on the ground for the people of #Gaza to distribute food, water, medicines and other essential supplies.

Much more is needed. Above all, #Gaza needs a humanitarian ceasefire.
