[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I was encouraged by what seemed to be a growing consensus for the need of at least a humanitarian pause in the Middle East.

Regrettably, instead I was surprised by an unprecedented escalation of bombardments, undermining humanitarian objectives.

This situation must be reversed.

[Maria Jose Oomen Liebers @fribabae]

Stating that Hamas’s recent attacks took place “within a vacuum” is putting it mildly. The Israeli gvt’s response only reveals how it perceives itself to be above international humanitarian law. (Note: yes, I condemn Hamas - but I also maintain a critical mind!)

[Mariana Mazzucato @MazzucatoM]

Hamas should be punished for its war crimes on civilians without creating new war crime 'revenge' on innocent Palestinians in Gaza & West Bank. When will EC, US & UK impose Geneva Convention? Time to call for immediate de-escalation & ceasefire or risk losing all credibility.

[Yuval Noah Harari @harari_yuval]

Right now the minds of Israelis & Palestinians are filled with their own pain: no space left to even acknowledge the pain of the other side. But outsiders should make an effort to empathize with all suffering humans & help maintain a space for peace. https://t.co/3hmLy0m5EP @TIME

#IPCC #ClimateReport

Continued #GHG emissions will lead to increasing #globalwarming.

Every increment of warming will intensify multiple & concurrent hazards.

Deep, rapid & sustained reductions in emissions would lead to a slowdown in #globalwarming.

Clean water is not a privilege.

It is a human right.

Yet, 2 billion people still lack access to safe drinking water around the world.

Ensuring access to clean & safe water supplies is essential for people to lead safe, productive & healthy lives.‌ #GlobalGoals
