Au lieu de couper l’internet, pourquoi pas l’utiliser pour informer vrai et véhiculer des messages de paix pour nous réconcilier avec nous mêmes?
Salam,

UN Secretary-General Guterres invoked Article 99 yesterday over Gaza. That hasn’t happened for decades, not even under Kofi. This is the UN system raising the alarm using all the tools it has. A big deal. But absolutely merited under the circumstances.

What about the hostages taken by Hamas, hear I my friends ask.
1-They should not have been taken;
2-We call for their release and safe return to their families.
Protect Humanity!
Stop indifference!
Enough!

The world is celebrating the evacuation of 31 premature babies from Al Shifa hospital. Great, these little lives do indeed matter a lot!
But, my God, how low are we setting the bar on our Humanity scale!
Enough!

There is an invisible human threshold. Crossing it will make impossible to be human again.
Let’s preserve our human dignity and heal our humanity!
Stop indifference!
Enough!

A minute of silence.
A flag on half mast.
But, sadly, the number of colleagues dying to save lives keeps growing.
Why should we die to care?
No more violence!
No more hostages!
No more punished civilians!
No more targeted humanitarian assets & workers!
Stop indifference!
ENOUGH!

Appalling, Outrageous, Shocking, Saddening…, we are running out superlatives to express the bruises in our heart and soul. Our Humanity is hurt and there is a total breakdown of leadership in the world to heal it.
Action, Now!
Peace, Now!
Enough!

The International Red Cross & Red Crescent Movement is appalled to see the human misery that has unfolded in Israel & Gaza.

We are deeply alarmed by the call for relocation in Gaza.

We call on all parties to respect international humanitarian law and to protect civilians.

As we mark International today, let's delve deeper into what truly means in a multilateral world. ⤵

👉 Democracy isn't a fixed state and must never be taken for granted.

👉 Democracy has retreated over the past decade, and we've slid back to 1986
