ONE SHOULD SPEAK THE TRUTH, NO MATTER THE COST, FOR ONLY TRUTH LEADS TO JUSTICE, AND JUSTICE TO PEACE.

[United Nations @UN]

Bombardments continue across Gaza, adding further misery to the catastrophic humanitarian crisis.

Health care and food are especially scarce in the north, where aid deliveries from the UN to desperate people have been blocked.

[UNFPA @UNFPA]

North #Gaza has been under siege for 30 days.

There is no food, medicine, shelter or safety.

Women and girls are trapped in this horror.

Once again, @UNFPA calls for international humanitarian law to be upheld.

The time for a ceasefire is now.

#CeasefireNOW

[Anthony Albanese @AlboMP]

A minimum age for social media of 16 years will make a difference.

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

Today, millions of #PalestineRefugees face the alarming possibility of losing the essential services provided by UNRWA — education, healthcare, and social support — that sustain their daily lives.

"This school is the reality of 13 months of non-stop bombing, non-stop strikes on people's homes, on hospitals, on schools"

In #Gaza City, @UNWateridge describes appalling scenes at an @UNRWA school where disease is spreading and the structure is about to collapse. Families have been forced to return following intensified Israeli military operations in northern Gaza.

[United Nations @UN]

For decades, @UNRWA has been supporting Palestine refugees with education, healthcare, shelter and more.

Take a look at the critical work the agency has been doing in the region for the last 74 years: https://t.co/z4gyZrLpu7

[UN News @UN_News_Centre]

Today, millions of Palestine refugees fear that the public services on which their lives depend will soon disappear. They fear that their children will be deprived of education, illnesses will go untreated, and social support will stop
– @UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini, 6 Nov 24

[United Nations Geneva @UNGeneva]

Over 2 million people urgently need life-saving support, with only 6% of pre-war aid currently reaching #Gaza due to access restrictions. Support from the international community is vital to sustain critical @UNRWA operations.

Racism, intolerance and discrimination tear at the fabric of our societies.

But everyone, everywhere can take action to spread compassion and understanding.

[United Nations Geneva @UNGeneva]

Addressing the UN General Assembly, @UNLazzarini describes a critical moment for @UNRWA as new Israeli legislation threatens its operations.

“I am asking Member States to act in defense of Palestine refugees and of UNRWA”

[United Nations @UN]

“UNRWA has been a lifeline for the people of Gaza.

It is the only pillar of their lives left standing.”

– @UNLazzarini warns General Assembly that Israeli legislation against @UNRWA will have disastrous consequences for millions of Palestinians.

The ongoing conflict in #Lebanon has reached a critical point.

Over 3,000 people have been killed since 8 Oct 2023. At least 1.3 million people have been displaced both within the country and across borders.

The scale of loss and suffering far surpasses the 2016 conflict. ⏬

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

For over a year now, @UNRWA schools in #Gaza have been turned into shelters.

In the buildings that are still standing, displaced families are struggling to survive. Living conditions are dire, people need everything, and the humanitarian situation keeps deteriorating.

[United Nations @UN]

The ongoing conflict in Lebanon has displaced thousands of children and their families.

Escalating violence is disrupting their lives and undermining their rights, as living conditions continue to deteriorate.

Here’s what @UNICEF is doing to help. ⤵️

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

“We are trapped in a nightmare; there is no income, no hope" says Imad, who has been displaced 4 times.

In #Gaza, UNRWA and partners continue tirelessly to distribute food parcels. Since the war started, nearly 1.15M people have been reached.

[UN Humanitarian @UNOCHA]

📍#Gaza:

🔴Healthcare conditions in North Gaza are critical
🔴Over 100 kitchens in central and southern Gaza producing 400k meals daily risk closure due to supply shortages
🔴Over 42 million tons of rubble and widespread explosive hazards pose a threat to civilians

"I feel particularly down for the failure of the international humanitarian law to protect civilians and the health system, and all the impunity," decries a @UNFPA representative in #Lebanon.

[Philippe Lazzarini @UNLazzarini]

Today, at @UNRWA’ s darkest hours, I told the @UN General Assembly, that the Agency has been providing learning to generations of #Palestine Refugees, many of whom have achieved remarkable success around the world.

It’s an education that champions human rights & gender equality +
promotes UN values including tolerance & respect for cultural identity.

In the absence of a capable public administration, only @UNRWA can deliver education to hundreds of thousands of girls & boys.

In the absence of UNRWA, an entire generation of Palestinian refugee children will be deprived of the right to education.
Their future will be sacrificed, sowing the seeds for marginalization and extremism.

Without UNRWA, hundreds of thousands of children will be robbed of their childhood.

The future of Palestine Refugees is our shared responsibility

"It is unbearable here. I can't imagine how people are surviving" @hadimuhannad visits an @UNRWA school in #Gaza City sheltering families who recently fled from besieged Jabalia.

The dire situation is beyond imaginable and only getting worse.
The only hope is a #CeasefireNow
