Humanitarian fallout from escalation in Middle East is increasingly daunting.

International law is best protector against vicious cycle of violence and war. Humanitarians will hold line, and continue to save as many lives as we can.

A stocktake of the crisis and our response:

First 24 hrs on Bluesky: very familiar to what Twitter felt like a few years ago. Interesting, calm and relevant. No commercial algorithms + your data not tracked across platforms: so refreshing. Free, in a way. Like the internet was supposed to be? https://t.co/rL3NUdkYep

World Humanitarian Day: 280 aid workers killed during 2023. So far in 2024, 172 killed (Humanitarian Outcomes). Horrific beyond words. But they also embody the spirit to stay and deliver, with the ultimate risk to their lives, to help people.

From today, Norad will take over major new administrative tasks from @NorwayMFA . This includes Norad now administering the majority of Norwegian emergency aid and having significantly more responsibility for administering Norway’s human rights work.

– Verdens øyne er rettet mot det som skjer på Gaza. Som om vi er tilskuere uten mulighet eller evne til å påvirke det som skjer. En kollektiv svikt fra verdenssamfunnet og grusomheter som gjentas hver dag, sier @AnneBerghRC

Two years of loss and suffering, families who have had to flee their homes.

But also two years of compassion and immensely important humanitarian work to help fellow humans in their hour of need.

Being a lifelong learner isn’t about taking pride in your knowledge. It's about having the humility to know what you don’t know.

Takk til @Regjeringen og @jonasgahrstore som gir 350 mill kroner til Røde Kors-innsats i Ukraina.
– Hjelpen er veldig viktig, den gir oss mulighet til å jobbe hardt og støtte millioner av mennesker. Den minner oss om at vi ikke står alene, sier @dotsenko_maksym i @RedCrossUkraine
