The confirmation of famine in
#Sudan
’s North Darfur state is a sobering reminder of our shared responsibility.
The global community has long warned that this crisis was preventable.
Immediate humanitarian access is vital to delivering life-saving aid.
Time has run out.
I am always inspired by stories like Iryna's, where those who received aid become aid providers.
Their unique understanding of community needs and the spirit they share foster strong networks of support and hope. 🌟

Extreme heat is having an extreme impact on people and planet.
Today I launched a global call to
#ClimateAction
focused on:
🔸 Caring for the most vulnerable
🔸 Stepping up protections for workers
🔸 Boosting resilience
🔸 Limiting temperature rise and phasing out fossil fuels
I join
@antonioguterres
in calling for urgent
#ClimateAction
.
It's unbearable to see vulnerable communities struggle to survive as aid dwindles and temperatures rise.
Extreme heat is drying up resources for the people who need them the most.
We have no time to waste.
I’m deeply saddened by the loss of more than 200 lives in the south of Ethiopia following landslides triggered by heavy rains.
.
@UN
agencies are dispatching food, nutrition, health and other critical supplies to help affected people.
My thoughts are with the families affected by the landslides in
#Ethiopia
, and I honour the rescue workers who lost their lives saving others.
@UNOCHA
and partners are working closely with the Government to mobilize critical aid on the ground.
At the
#UNSC
, I warned of growing risks of a regional spillover in
#Yemen
and emphasized the need to protect civilians.
Strikes on Hodeidah port threaten the population's access to much-needed basic items.
Despite challenges, we remain committed to supporting those in need.
Deeply touched by Maryna Slobodnichenko, Deputy Minister of Health of Ukraine, whose stories show the leadership and resilience needed during the brutal war.
UN & partners have stayed and scaled up response since the war's escalation and will continue to deliver for all in need.
Delighted to meet Professor
