[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Just when it seems there are no words left to describe the living hell in Gaza, a new one has been added: “famine”.

This is not a mystery — it is a man-made disaster, a moral indictment and a failure of humanity itself. Famine is not only about food; it is the deliberate collapse of the systems needed for human survival. People are starving. Children are dying. And those with the duty to act are failing. As the occupying power, Israel has unequivocal obligations under international law — including the duty of ensuring food and medical supplies of the population. We cannot allow this situation to continue with impunity.

No more excuses. The time for action is not tomorrow — it is now. We need an immediate ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages and full, unfettered humanitarian access.

The impact of funding cuts in Afghanistan is broader than ever, affecting all sectors and organizations. Thamindri De Silva, World Vision National Director, stresses that without sustained support, challenges won’t just pause — they’ll deepen. Long-term solutions are crucial.

Without the essential support we receive from donors, like @ECHO_MiddleEast, & our government partners, children wouldn't be able to catch up on the classes they missed due to violence and displacement and many would end up dropping out. #EiE #SafeSchools #LeaveNoOneBehind

🎓 In the West Bank, education brings hope. With support from the EU, children affected by displacement can continue learning and rebuild their futures. 📚

8/ Yet, the lessons from Kakuma still resonate:

🧭 Community matters.
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Dignity matters.
🌱 Opportunity matters.
We must act not just to respond—but to resolve.

🧵1/ On #WorldRefugeeDay, I’m reflecting on my time in Kakuma Refugee Camp in 2012 - a time when 45.2 million people were forcibly displaced.

Today, that number is 123.2 million.

The scale has more than doubled. But the strength of displaced communities remains. #WithRefugees

7/ But the humanitarian system is under immense pressure.

⚠️ Needs are rising.
💸 Funding is stagnating.
🌐 The humanitarian–development–peace nexus is more critical than ever.

[World Vision Syria Response @WorldVisionSR]

Today is #WorldRefugeeDay, a moment to stand in solidarity and renew hope for the children of Syria.
Let’s listen to their voices, amplify their stories, and work together to create a future where they can thrive.
Every #child deserves a life that is safe and full of opportunity!

[Micah Branaman-Sharma @meb7030]

As needs escalate globally, especially in fragile and conflict-affected areas, how can we better align funding with the realities on the ground? #advocacy #fundinggap #humanitarianaid

This week I'm in #Ukraine attending their national disaster management #training. Why? Because we need to be prepared to reach the most vulnerable in every scenario

[World Vision - Middle East & Eastern Europe @WVMEERO]

Today marks three years since the start of the devastating war in Ukraine.

So many children have faced unimaginable loss, enduring recurring trauma and displacement.

Together, let's ensure their voices continue to be heard.

After 15 months of devastating conflict, we welcome the #ceasefire in #Gaza, offering hope for a future free from violence. It continues to be crucial that aid reaches those most in need. Children must be protected, and humanitarian access must be prioritized. #GazaCeasefire #HumanRights #Peace

[Eleanor Monbiot @EleanorMonbiot]

After 14 years of conflict & isolation, poverty and malnutrition in North Central #Syria is shocking. @WorldVision has been working with our partners to rehabilitate schools, clinics and water systems but is only a fraction of what is urgently needed to make meaningful impact.

[World Vision - Middle East & Eastern Europe @WVMEERO]

The impact of the current conflict escalation in #Lebanon on children & families is far worse than we initially feared… Displaced children are bearing the brunt of the ongoing violence as shelter, food, water, & psychosocial needs continue to soar.

[Micah Branaman-Sharma @meb7030]

If the conflict continues on this trajectory, this escalation will compound miseries for the most vulnerable people across the region, particularly children, who face death, injury and forced displacement.

[World Vision - Middle East & Eastern Europe @WVMEERO]

As the conflict escalates in #Lebanon, children are now facing unimaginable danger & families are desperately seeking safety...

@wvlebanon & its partners will continue responding in critical areas, supporting those in need with lifesaving assistance.

It's essential that children are included in ALL decision-making spaces. They don't need adults to speak for them, we must empower them to speak about issues that affect their lives and instigate change on their own terms. #childparticipation #UNGA79 #SOTF
