Today is International Day of the Girl Child.

1120 days since Taliban banned girls from school.

Afghanistan is the ONLY country in the world that bans girls education.

While millions of girls are denied their basic human right to learn, what meaning does this day truly hold?

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Male violence against women and girls is the single most common human rights violation in the world. Supposedly egalitarian Western regimes reveal how much they truly value women's rights by their feeble response to an Afghan regime actively encouraging and enabling rape.

At the UN, before Israel attacked Beirut, Netanyahu called hospitals, schools & homes in Lebanon a legitimate target.

Israel’s genocidal intent & violence in Gaza is being repeated in Lebanon.

This is what Islamophobia, dehumanisation of brown lives & total impunity looks like.

[John Ganz @lionel_trolling]

Just as a reminder, Israel is now fighting the militant group in Lebanon that arose from the last time it tried to eliminate militants in Lebanon

🟡 NOW: UN member states lead a mass walkout as Netanyahu takes the stage at the UN General Assembly. The hall is almost empty now.

Go Fund Her: Irene, a 13 year old in Kenya whose two brothers were killed by cattle bandits and who had to drop out of school. Next stop marriage! We got her into school and on the path to being a doctor which is her dream. https://t.co/cXvRI2ZUbU
She and others need you!!

Building off its successes in tackling climate change and food insecurity, @plantvillage is fixing its sights on a new target: improving child welfare.

Read about the new initiative involving @DH_PlantVillage and @kateott44: https://t.co/oL01i2esJE

[David Hughes @DH_PlantVillage]

Proud of this work with Kate Ott. Betting on the education of young girls is a no-brainer!!! Girls who would be married are placed in schools and given enriching education not just from the school but the @plantvillage community (so from Ag to AI).

If slaughtering children isn't a red line for you, please reexamine your entire life.

This is shocking and devastating.

World record holder in the marathon, in the prime of his career, tragically passes away.

Kiptum ran 2:00:35 in Chicago and looked to be the man who'd break 2 hours in a marathon race.

An absolute tragedy.
