We are deeply sadden by the news of the passing of Iwasa Mikiso, survivor of Hiroshima & a tireless advocate for banning & abolishing nuclear weapons. We are sending condolences from the entire global campaign to his family, friends and colleagues in Nihon Hidankyo.

Nuclear threats are unacceptable at any time, by anyone. For an Israeli government minister to do this at the height of its offensive in Gaza is both dangerous and irresponsible. We welcome the widespread condemnation of the threat and the Israeli PM disowning it. #nuclearban

1/ Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is a direct violation of international law and puts civilians at incredible risk. We stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine and urge the international community to pressure Russia to participate in conversation and diplomacy. #nuclearban

This is what real leadership looks like! Thank you, @jacindaardern for telling the world about the dangers of nuclear weapons and urging states to join and ratify the #nuclearban treaty to outlaw these weapons on the 75th anniversary of the nuclear attack on #Hiroshima .

75 years ago the world saw the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapons. It must not happen again. Only nuclear zero is worthy of the victims of Hiroshima & Nagasaki. PM Ardern urges all States to join the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons #nuclearban

Way to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of the #nuclearban treaty: Fiji has just become the 39th state to ratify the #nuclearban treaty! 👏Congratulations @FijiMissionUN 👏 Fiji’s ratification is all the more important because of its experience of the impacts of nuclear testing.
