The U.N. development agency says the amount of rubble in Gaza would be enough to build 13 giant pyramids in Egypt or fill up all of New York's Central Park about 40 feet high with debris.

I echo @antonioguterres: famine in Gaza is a man-made disaster. The deliberate collapse of essential systems is costing lives — incl. children. Obligations under international law must be met. We urgently need a ceasefire, unimpeded humanitarian access & the release of hostages.

@UNDP says invest in more renewables even if some big companies are turning their backs on commitments made. @UNDPasiapac analysis show millions in region remain in the cold&dark. This isn't only about power supply – it's about saving lives & saving the planet. Heed our call⬇️
