Two @ICRC aid workers were killed in Sudan on May 2, and now one @UN worker was killed yesterday in Gaza. My heart is with their families. Too many humanitarian workers have already been killed. Those helping civilians access aid must be protected in order to save lives.

A rise in conflict, including in Sudan & Gaza, has led to a historic level of displacement. The NEW report from @IDMC_Geneva shows that 75.9 million people were uprooted in 2023, the largest internal displacement figure ever recorded. #GRID2024 Read:

Terrible to see the scale of death & damage from flooding in Afghanistan. My thoughts are with those impacted by this devastation. Our @USAID partners are mobilizing emergency relief including food, water, and other essential materials.

When I think about partnerships in the humanitarian world - this famous Swahili phrase always comes to mind. I’ve seen, firsthand, how the private sector’s essential role furthers our efforts. Together, let's learn from each other & unite to allow resilience to shine through 🌟

860,000 people in Sudan have been denied humanitarian aid for more than a month because the warring parties are blocking access to lifesaving aid. Millions face famine because of the conflict. SAF & RSF must open up full access for humanitarian aid and end the conflict now.
