“War is not the answer.

We need a way out of this disaster.

Diplomacy is the way out.

Full respect of international law is the way out.

Peace is the way out.”

— @antonioguterres calls for an immediate end to the war in the Middle East.

"Whatever differences countries have, we can all agree they will not be solved by killing schoolchildren.

That is why we have the laws of war: to protect children and other civilians caught up in conflict, as well as schools and all civilian infrastructure." - @volker_turk

[Tom Fletcher @UNReliefChief]

We need to get serious, or we'll be paying for this war for years to come. Civilians across Middle East and beyond have already paid too high a price. 
 
My interview with @amanpour in London yesterday.

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

“Every week I’m calling the relatives of UN colleagues and NGO colleagues who are being killed out there on the frontlines.”

@UNReliefChief @TFletcher tells me about the deadly risks humanitarian workers are being forced to take and the brutal impact of aid cuts.

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

“Diplomacy is not reality TV. The world is not a casino. Statecraft is not a real estate deal.”

@UNReliefChief @TFletcher tells me that as the war with Iran continues to escalate, “We’ll be paying for this war for years to come…

“We’re deeply frustrated… that’s diplomatic speak for saying we’re furious. Because rich people are winning out of this. The arms dealers are winning… And the people I serve are losing.”

"We didn’t even have a clean place to use the toilet.”

After 22 consecutive days of flooding in Thai Nguyen 🇻🇳 caused by multiple typhoons in 2025, Ms. Say struggled to rebuild. Thanks to @eu_echo, UNICEF, and Government partners, she received cash assistance & #WASH supplies to restore sanitation for her son's future.💧

In recent weeks, millions have been displaced by storms and floods in Thailand, Malaysia, Viet Nam and the Philippines. And more heartbreaking news has continued from Indonesia and Sri Lanka, where lives have been lost, and the essential services children rely on have been destroyed.

Children are among the most vulnerable when a crisis hits, facing risks to their health, safety and education. UNICEF is working with partners across the world to ensure children are protected before, during and after a crisis.

[Michaela Bauer @michaelabauer77]

Children in 🇻🇳 like Ta Minh Khang (7) have been heavily impacted by climate related typhoons & floods. UNICEF is delivering life saving support. More is needed to rebuild their lives and help them prepare for future disasters.

Millions of children in Southeast Asia are facing the devastating impacts of relentless climate-related disasters.

When we fail to address the climate crisis with the urgency it demands, we are failing children.

Children in Oceania, Sub-Saharan Africa and Central and Southern Asia are the most likely to live with a mother who has faced physical, emotional or sexual abuse by a partner in the past year.

UNICEF calls on governments and partners to invest in proven solutions to end violence against women and children.

“I kept breastfeeding, but with limited food and only relying on relief supplies, I couldn’t have enough milk for her,” Hương recalled after being isolated for days by the typhoon.

Her one-year-old daughter was diagnosed with moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) and has since received ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) supported by UNICEF and government partners — helping her recover and grow healthy again.

Every child has a light — and it’s time the world sees it. 🌟

UNICEF Viet Nam launches EduPower: Every Child – A Light, a movement for inclusive education where every child — especially every girl — can learn, grow & shine.

Together, we can make sure no child is left behind.

📍Yen Binh, Lang Son: UNICEF’s Ly Phat Viet Linh visits a primary school where floodwaters rose up to 4 meters, destroying classrooms and learning materials.

When disasters strike, children’s learning and well-being are disrupted.

UNICEF is working with the government and partners to restore safe learning spaces, provide cash assistance to affected families, and ensure children have access to clean water, sanitation, health care and psychosocial support.
