The world’s most neglected horror-story:
Hundreds of thousands of Sudanese civilians in El Fasher, North Darfur, have now been bombarded, starved, and besieged for over 2 years.

New and devastating attacks are ongoing.

Indiscriminate shelling is destroying homes, hospitals, markets, water-supply, and electricity.

Aid has for a long time been systematically blocked.

Hundreds of people are reported to have died from thirst, and there are multiple reports of sexual violence and attacks against those fleeing.

It is crucial that Gulf countries, neighbours, and others with influence over the fighting parties take concrete action to protect civilians in El Fasher.

Silence now will only encourage further appalling violence.

#Uganda: In Bidi Bidi, refugees & host communities face climate challenges that threaten their livelihoods & food security. Through @noradno, we have empowered farmers with drought-resistant crops, improved farming techniques, & sustainable practices to withstand harsh weather.

[William Carter @WillCarter_NRC]

Food finding its way into worst #humanitarian catastrophe this millennium, traversing broken bridges + swollen rivers in #Darfur 🇸🇩Nothing to do with intl #aid convoys; Market systems + local ingenuity is seriously underrated. Ziplines become lifelines… absurd, perhaps beautiful

“We cannot be clearer: #Sudan is experiencing a starvation crisis of historic proportions. And yet, the silence is deafening. People are dying of hunger, every day, and yet the focus remains on semantic debates and legal definitions.”

#Sudan: Hunger is no longer just a consequence of war in Sudan. International humanitarian law is being ignored, food infrastructure is being targeted, and aid is being denied to millions.

[William Carter @WillCarter_NRC]

500 days of hell in #Sudan
Families torn apart. Communities erased. Children growing up under gunfire, displaced, starving. The scale of suffering is catastrophic while the path to peace remains elusive. World leaders must finally attend to the world’s largest humanitarian crisis

[NRC East & Southern Africa @NRC_EAY]

Food security is a lifeline for refugees in #Uganda and paves the way to self-reliance and resilience.

With the support of @noradno, we are empowering refugees and host communities with sustainable agricultural practices and livelihood opportunities

Fostering co-existence!

[Carl Skau @WFPChief]

There is famine in Sudan.
Families are dying.

Without urgent action, it will spread across the country, threatening millions of people's lives & the stability of an entire region.

Humanitarians must be able to reach those in need.
The conflict must end. https://t.co/nocLhZfNH2

Rafah: NRC staff witness families fleeing the possible Israeli assault. Many are deeply distressed, fearing immense suffering in coming days & weeks.
People have already fled multiple times and most have no safe shelter to go to.

[Jan Egeland @NRC_Egeland]

Over 30,000 Palestinians have lost their lives.
Northern Gaza is on the brink of famine, facing catastrophic hunger.

We’ve joined 28 UK organisations calling for action from UK Govt to prevent further death & destruction in Gaza.

#CeasefireNOW

[Knut Andersen @KnutAndersen5]

Are we, humanity, going to let this happen??

[FEWS NET @FEWSNET]

Famine is imminent in northern #Gaza.

"Acute malnutrition levels are rapidly worsening amid severe, sustained hunger, and destruction of water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructure."

#Gaza famine:

An airdrop: 6 costly & chaotic tonnes
A new harbour: aid provided in 2 months

15 WFP trucks just blocked by IDF: 200 tonnes

500 trucks over crossings: 7.500 tonnes per day safely distributed

Donors: push Israel to open borders!

USAs veto mot et vedtak i FNs sikkerhetsråd om å kreve en våpenhvile, gjør dem medskyldig i blodbadet i Gaza. De vilkårlige angrepene på sivile må stoppe!

[Knut Andersen @KnutAndersen5]

Are you the consultant we are looking for??

We are doing a strategic review of the Livelihoods and Food Security work in NRC this fall, and we are looking for a good consultant to do the review.
