What is happening in Lebanon & in the region is terrible. Today, UNHCR staff in Romania and around the world kept a minute of silence for our killed colleagues, as a testimony of solidarity & to remind that violence on civilians & humanitarian workers is inadmissible.
Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon are now relentlessly claiming hundreds of civilian lives. And I am very saddened to confirm that two UNHCR colleagues were also killed yesterday. On behalf of all us at UNHCR, heartfelt condolences to their families, friends and colleagues.

We have witnessed another terrible attack on civilians in 🇺🇦. As part of the prompt response on the ground, UNHCR came together with local partners and delivered necessary assistance and core-relief items. The need for support continues.
UNHCR is deeply troubled by yesterday's attacks in Ukraine, that killed dozens and injured over 150 people. These attacks highlight the ongoing severity of the full-scale war. UNHCR urges immediate respect for international humanitarian law and the protection of civilians.

🙏🏻@euronewsro for inviting me to discuss on the challenges refugees worldwide face on their journey to safety. Addressing root causes, protection along dangerous routes &access to asylum + protection-driven asylum systems are needed to reduce loss of life&human rights violations.
