Nowhere is safe for children in Gaza.
An immediate humanitarian ceasefire provides the best chance to save lives, end suffering and enable the urgent delivery of life-saving aid.
We have lost touch with our colleagues in Gaza.
I’m extremely concerned about their safety and another night of unspeakable horror for 1M children in #Gaza.
All humanitarians and the children and families they serve MUST be protected.
