Preventing conflict and building peace is central to the work of the Secretary-General. While that work advances, the consequences of war still reach people thousands of miles away. Limiting that damage is part of the same job. I have seen a war turn into a food crisis, an energy crisis and a debt crisis for countries who were never part of it. I have also seen those consequences contained when we sat down to negotiate. Creating opportunities for agreement, that's the job of the Secretary-General. #newUN

“Let’s cut off Gaza’s water supply. They will either leave or die.”

Imagine a Palestinian saying this about Israelis.

Imagine the outrage, the headlines, the emergency meetings, the accusations of barbarism.

Last year, @mohhashem spoke to Israeli genocide scholar Raz Segal about how the weaponisation of antisemitism puts Jewish people at risk.

"It actually puts Jews in more danger because it feeds into this conflation of a people and a state."

Israel has just charged settler Yinon Levi with killing Palestinian human rights defender Awdah Hathaleen last year. But how likely is a conviction?

@dena spoke with Awdah’s cousin after the news broke.

“I am from #Gaza, and the war changed so much in my life, but it could not take away my dream of getting an education,” says Tala, a 15-year-old #Palestine Refugee now living in Brazil with her family.

After attending UNRWA schools in Gaza, Tala continued learning through UNRWA’s Online Education Programme, while adapting to a new country, a new language and a new life.

Today, her hard work has paid off: Tala won a gold medal in a mathematics competition at her school in Brazil.

“I am grateful to UNRWA for being part of my educational journey in Gaza, and I thank every teacher who stood by me and encouraged me.”

In Gaza, access to clean drinking water is becoming increasingly limited as damaged infrastructure forces people to rely on unsafe sources. Doctors warn contaminated water is worsening a growing public health crisis.

Michigan winters are too cold for Mike Rogers. He's got thin skin. I promise you in November, we're sending him back to Florida.

Last week, more than 100 peaceful protestors were arrested under TERROR LAWS.

Our right to protest is one of the most effective tools we have to hold our leaders to account about the genocide in Gaza, the climate crisis and other vital human rights issues.

These arrests are yet another attack on freedom of speech. Share this video if you think that these extreme measures need to stop!

The #Ebola outbreak in the #DRC is outpacing our response, making it imperative that we rapidly scale up every aspect of our efforts to contain it: https://t.co/rmg4GOYQX0

@WHO and @AfricaCDC stand in solidarity with the government, affected communities, and the courageous health workers serving under exceptionally difficult circumstances.

But this must be backed by sustained commitment, greater resources, and stronger international support.

Together, we must guarantee safe access for responders, protect civilians and health workers, and mobilize the support needed to end this outbreak and save lives.

“Overall, about 82% of the structures in Gaza are damaged.”

UN deputy spokesperson Farhan Haq told reporters on Friday that a new assessment has revealed that the number of structures assessed as destroyed in Gaza has increased by 9% since the October 2025 ceasefire

The long-term plan is to punish Palestinians so much that they’d abandon their homes, leaving settlers to occupy them instead.

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

Displaced from Rafah, injured during the conflict and now living in a tent in Khan Younis, 14-year-old Rahaf still finds hope in drawing.

“Drawing helps me express my feelings and everything inside me.”

Through UNRWA Summer Activities, she is finding moments to create, make new friends, and simply be a child again.
