In today's @nytimes, I argue that the world must act to protect civilians, including humanitarians. @ifrc https://t.co/PZ7LtoVvyJ

"Despite these risks, our colleagues continue to show up not because they are fearless, but because the suffering is too urgent to ignore. Yet, courage is not protection, and dedication does not deflect bullets." This statement on World Humanitarian Day is attributed to

Today, we celebrate the 106th anniversary of the founding of @ifrc. As we pause to reflect on and celebrate the achievements of our network, I am reminded of the vision and legacy of our founder, Henry P. Davison.

Today, together with IFRC President @KateForbes_IFRC, we paused for a moment of remembrance @IFRC headquarters. We paid tribute to 10 volunteers and staff members of our global network that have been killed this year. Last year, we lost 32 of them. But they are not just numbers

“We observed a moment of silence—but we will not be silent.” Following the loss of eight @PalestineRCS colleagues in Gaza, IFRC President @KateForbes_IFRC reflects on this tragedy, calling for accountability, protection of humanitarian workers, and respect for international

To say I am heartbroken doesn’t even begin to describe the depth of sorrow I feel. Far too many of our colleagues and friends have been taken from us. They should have been protected. Their courage should have been honored. Their memory must never be forgotten.

I am back from my visit to Rafah- my second since becoming @ifrc President- and I am sharing what I saw. The struggle there is no longer just about survival; it is about holding on to humanity in the face of unimaginable hardship.

During her visit to Egypt, @ifrc President @KateForbes_IFRC met with senior officials to discuss relief efforts in #Gaza and humanitarian cooperation: ✅ Meeting with Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly to review Egypt’s role in facilitating aid to Gaza and reconstruction efforts.

We stand in solidarity with our colleagues at the ICRC and PRCS in Gaza. Today, the @ICRC office in Rafah was damaged by an explosive projectile, despite being clearly marked and notified to all parties. Yesterday, contact was lost with emergency medical teams from the

The tragic air crash over Washington, D.C. has claimed many lives and affected countless others. First responders and American Red Cross volunteers are working tirelessly to provide support and ease suffering. Our thoughts are with all those impacted.

This season of Lunar New Year is a time of family reunions, shared meals and hopes for prosperity. Yet, for many, these moments of togetherness remain out of reach. May this Lunar New Year inspire us all to strive for a world where dignity, peace and humanity flourish.

Today brings hope. The ceasefire reminds us that even amidst despair, humanity can find a way toward peace. Let this day inspire us all--each one of us--to build a future defined by compassion and solidarity for everyone, everywhere and every day.

As wildfires blaze through the Los Angeles area, tens of thousands have been forced to evacuate their homes. The American Red Cross @redcross is on the ground, working tirelessly with our partners to provide shelter, food, emotional support, and health services to those impacted.

Wildfires & winter storms across the US are stark reminders to prevent & prepare for emergencies. Make a plan. Write down important phone numbers and medications. Download emergency apps and set up alerts. Listen to fire and law enforcement authorities. Be aware.

As we head into the holiday season, may this be a time of peace, renewal and inspiration. Thank you to our volunteers and staff and everyone who makes our work possible at the @ifrc.
