Today I briefed the Security Council after my visit to Gaza. I’m haunted by what I saw & heard.
The effects of the violence perpetrated on children is catastrophic. The violence must end! All hostages, especially children, must be released. My remarks▶️

Despite the ongoing war in Sudan, UNICEF and its partners are working to reach children with life-saving immunization services. As of April, we reached over 6.7 million children with Measles & Rubella vaccines.

A pleasure to speak with students, many of them migrants, at a school in Chile this week.
Children told me of their challenges and triumphs, and the importance of education in an environment of mutual respect and understanding.

The war in Gaza is taking an unimaginable toll on children.
In Rafah, a city of children, the impact of a further escalation would be devastating.
The lives of children must be protected.
All the hostages must be released.
The nightmare for so many families must end.

As

enters a new chapter, authorities must put the rights of children at the heart of their agenda by protecting children against violence & ensuring they have safe access to basic services.
The children of Haiti need our full focus in restoring hope for the future.

Thanks to vaccinations, more children now survive and thrive past their fifth birthday than at any other point in history.
We must build on the momentum and ensure that every child, everywhere, has access to life-saving immunizations.
