Médecins Sans Frontières (#MSF) warns of a marked increase in the number of preventable deaths in northeast #Syria, as the World Health Organization (@WHO)-funded medical referral system from 11 camps, including #AlHol camp, has ceased due to lack of funding.

1/5🚨𝗨𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲: cuts to @WHO funding mean patients in camps in #NESyria including from #AlHol, with over 42,000 people, mostly women and children, will be unable to access critical healthcare outside the camps. #HealthEmergency

Sharing this stunning multimedia report by @NatashaHallDC (and a talented web designer?) on #water 💧 in the #MENA. It's been exciting to work on this issue with her & others over the past three months.

To more 💧 research, coming soon

[UN Syria Commission of Inquiry @UNCoISyria]

On International Day for the Prevention of Violent Extremism, @UNCoISyria calls on States to bring home their children from NE #Syria detention camps where they risk indoctrination, radicalization & inhuman treatment. States must continue seeking accountability for mass atrocities by Da’esh & others.

A year since devastating earthquakes hit Turkey and Syria, your donations are still making a huge difference to people who lost their homes, livelihoods and loved ones.

Great piece from @lyse_mauvais highlighting the challenges, stigmatisation and discrimination women face as they return from #alhol camp and look to reintegrate.

#Gaza – Given the high number of civilian casualties & the scale of destruction following Israeli airstrikes on Jabalia refugee camp, we have serious concerns that these are disproportionate attacks that could amount to war crimes.

Detailed piece from @lyse_mauvais and @solin_amin on the difficult reality for women's healthcare in Abu Khashab camp. Something that is similar in other last-resort sites in Northeast Syria. #northeastsyria #camps

Based on available evidence, Brexit, in its current form, is one of the things constraining the growth of the UK's economy. Here's 5 mins on how we reached that conclusion. Watch the full edition of 'On the Week' on @BBCiPlayer here: https://t.co/Dk6BFgX0sx

[Financial Times @FinancialTimes]

The economic costs of Brexit were masked by the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine. But six years after the UK voted to leave the EU, the Brexit effect has become clear.

In this film, we examine how Brexit hit the UK economy https://t.co/YDiNPU9XHC

Our deepest condolences go to the family & colleagues of the aid worker killed in Al Hol Camp, NE Syria. Humanitarians should never ever be targeted.  Camp residents, relief staff & premises must be protected. It’s a war crime to kill an unarmed aid worker https://t.co/F3o04nZnBa
