The eradication of all landmines cannot wait. Whether new or old contamination, clearance must be completed by #MineAction actors and States Parties of @MineBanTreaty. It is a human problem and too many people have lived for generations next to unexploded ordnance #IMAD2023

#ExplosiveOrdnance contamination threatens lives, curtails freedom of movement, limits access to arable land, disenfranchises communities and above all instills fear and insecurity. Today, #IMAD2023 we remember the work that still needs to be done #MineActionCannotWait

I met today with Mullah Baradar and the Taliban leadership. We spoke about @ICRC’s plans to scale our life-saving work across #Afghanistan. Neutral, impartial and independent humanitarian action is the basis of our work. ICRC has served Afghans for 30 years. We won’t stop now.

Our current research on #humanitarian programming in #Yemen shows that access is heavily compromised, especially in the #North. What leverage is there to change this? Is it really time for #development funding..?
The economic collapse in Yemen is driving humanitarian needs. Some 5 million Yemenis are just one step away from famine. I briefed the Security Council on what the aid operation is doing to respond & how the world can help – including by addressing the root causes of the crisis.
