473 million children worldwide are impacted by war. Yesterday I heard from @WarChildUK and Carey Mulligan about their vital work to protect child victims of conflicts - including advocating with partners for the return of Ukrainian children that Russia has forcibly deported.

The @InvestAfrica1 Africa debate highlights the huge potential across Africa and why more and more British businesses and investors will be choosing Africa in the coming years. The UK is committed to building new partnerships - as an investor, not a donor.

Turkey is a key NATO Ally and strategic partner of the UK. This relationship delivers growth and security for the British people. I spoke with @RTErdogan in Ankara about delivering a ceasefire in Ukraine and securing stability in the Middle East.

Russia is intensifying its attacks on the Ukrainian people. Last night Russia launched its biggest air attack on Ukraine since 2022, with over 500 drones and missiles across the country. Putin must stop this horror — and get serious about peace.

The DRC and Rwanda signing a peace agreement is hugely welcome, facilitated by strong leadership and sustained effort from the US. Full implementation is now essential. All parties should continue engaging with African and Qatari led mediation processes.

The situation in Gaza is appalling. @PalestineRCS plays a critical role in providing medical care to civilians in desperate need. Today I reiterated my outrage at the killing of aid workers. Those responsible must be held accountable.

Yesterday I spoke with Iran's Foreign Minister Araghchi. I urged him to return to the negotiating table to reach a long-term solution that helps ensure the ceasefire holds and prevents further conflict. Iran can never have a nuclear weapon.

A historic moment in the pursuit of justice and accountability for Ukraine. Since 2022 @Keir_Starmer and I have supported the idea for a Special Tribunal to prosecute those responsible for Russia’s war of aggression. This Agreement takes us a step closer to bringing it to life.

1 Billion children vaccinated, 18 million lives saved and $250 billion injected into the global economy. The UK is proud to partner with @Gavi to make it happen. Our investment will boost growth, protect us from deadly diseases and save up to 8 million lives by 2030.

NATO is growing stronger, fairer and more lethal with the UK at its centre. Together with @Keir_Starmer and @JohnHealey_MP in The Hague, we’re stepping up for our collective security, keeping Britain safe at home and strong abroad.

I’ve recently met with Eli Sharabi and Yocheved Lifchitz, who were held as hostages in Gaza, as well as Yocheved’s daughter Sharone. Their strength and advocacy for peace after such an unimaginable ordeal has been deeply moving. Hamas must release all hostages immediately.

I condemn Iran’s attack on the Al Udeid airbase yesterday and the UK stands in solidarity with the US and our ally Qatar. We have let Qatar know they will always have our steadfast support. Our focus must be on de-escalation and diplomacy to end this crisis.
