There are no words to describe the level of human suffering.
Hospitals must be sanctuaries for all. They must be protected under international humanitarian law. #NotATarget
About 1 million people have been displaced in the #GazaStrip.
Humanitarians warn that the population “is at imminent risk of death or infectious disease outbreak if water and fuel are not immediately allowed to enter the Strip."

My urgent plea to the parties to the conflict in Israel and Gaza.
@ICRC is ready with medicine and other relief items. Entry must be granted, and our teams in Gaza must be allowed to work safely and effectively.
The situation is critical.
Today, on #WorldHumanitarianDay, we celebrate the power of community and people helping people, both in the spotlight during crises and behind-the-scenes in day-to-day life.
More than 300 prisoners have been released in Yemen today, part of a prisoner swap for nearly 900 people facilitated by the @ICRC. @chrissymacCNN speaks to @FCarboniICRC about how the operation is progressing:
This is what #neutrality & @ICRC's role as neutral intermediary looks like in practice: seeking dialogue with all stakeholders in order to gain humanitarian access to all those affected by armed conflicts, on all sides of frontlines - including #detainees
Happy #InternationalWomensDay to women everywhere: to the formidable staff & volunteers of the #RCRCMovement worldwide, & to the inspiring women fighting the odds in conflicts from Afghanistan to Mali & Ukraine.
Gender equality is a priority for us all.
تقاسم الإنسان اليمني العيش مع شجرة البُن على سفوح الجبال الشوامخ منذ الأزل، متحديان كل الصعاب، وارتبطا ببعضهما ارتباط البراعم بالأغصان، وتشاركا الصدارة معا. بُن اليمن ليس مجرد مشروب فقط بل تأريخ وذاكرة بلد عظيم حان الوقت لينعم بالسلام من جديد.
جمعة مباركة.

Our founder and former director Claude Bruderlein is retiring today.
He established the CCHN as a leading initiative in the domain of frontline humanitarian negotiations and was key in creating our community of practice.
From the CCHN and its community, thank you Claude!
#Taiz, the site of one of Yemen’s longest-running battlefields, thousands of internally displaced people live close to the frontlines.
The ICRC in collaboration with YRCS have distributed food baskets and EHI to 2,200 internally displaced people living in the camps in #AL_Hawban
We are shocked and saddened by the loss of a @RedCrossUkraine volunteer due to the recent shelling in the Kherson region.
Our thoughts are with their staff, volunteers and family at this devastating time.
🔴Humanitarian aid workers and volunteers are #NotATarget. EVER.
Today, during the mass shelling of Kherson, a volunteer of the Ukrainian Red Cross Emergency response team was killed.
The Ukrainian Red Cross expresses its condolences to the family of the deceased people.
