If Colombia​ held a minute’s silence for every victim of its 60-year armed conflict, then no one would speak for the next 17 years.

Good morning, I wrote about the Colombian Truth Commission Report for the @LRB

Today marks the Intl #DayOfTheDisappeared.
The @ICRC Central Tracing Agency provides families on all sides of a conflict with information about their missing loved ones. Decades after the end of a conflict, the ICRC tracing #archives continue the work.

Not just files, answers.

The @icrc reacts to a ‘deliberate and targeted campaign of misinformation’. My story on what humanitarian neutrality means in #Ukraine️ or indeed any war. https://t.co/uQXlJVc2Go

Recent critiques of @ICRC's meeting with #Russia's Foreign Minister reveal misunderstanding of core humanitarian principles.

@H_NAILI (@CivCenter) explains why such meetings are a common - and vital - part of humanitarian work.

Over the past few days, false information about us has been circulating online.

This could put our Red Cross staff, volunteers, and the people we seek to help at risk.

So we’re addressing this head on. These are the facts 👇

[ICRC @ICRC]

We speak to all parties to a conflict, to protect and assist civilians.

Under the Geneva Conventions, this is our mandate.

Last week, our President was in Ukraine. Yesterday, he was in Russia.

Here’s how that dialogue helps those in need 👇

[British Red Cross 🧡 @BritishRedCross]

We've seen concerns circulating online following meetings between the ICRC and parties to the conflict in Ukraine.

It has taken me a long time to write about my experience of arriving in the UK as a #refugee because it’s painful and personal but I felt that maybe helping people to understand would stimulate something other than this terrible hostility towards #refugees and #Afghans

@DmitryOpines ha i was wondering about this

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

On #WorldRefugeeDay, we look at the painful journeys refugees were forced to take in 2020 despite the global pandemic.

For over a year, our lives, plans, and businesses have stopped due to COVID-19.

For Syrians, life stopped for ten years.

The government has learned nothing. They have changed nothing. And they now seem ready to retreat headlong into precisely the same mistakes they made in the past. https://t.co/I4diESoyuM

[Cal Bears History @CalBearsHistory]

On Sept. 30, 1945, @Cal's California Law Review published an article by Pauli Murray, LL.M. 1945, "The Right to Equal Opportunity in Employment." It was the first article by a Black woman ever published in a US Law Review & the first to discuss sex discrimination in employment.
