We are witnessing loss of civilian life at a scale we have not seen in the modern history of Israel and Palestine.

Leaders should rise to the moment and act to prevent further mass atrocities before it’s far too late.

We reiterate our call for restraint and respect for international humanitarian law. Governments around the world must condemn this loss of civilian life and work to ensure all humanitarian needs are met. (2/2) bma.org.uk/news-and-opini…

To meet the huge needs in Gaza, ICRC @IFRC @unicef World Food Programme World Health Organization (WHO) & others have mobilized both staff and life-saving supplies.

الهلال الأحمر المصري are ready to deliver supplies to PRCS when access becomes available.

We call on all parties to grant safe humanitarian access.

'Dying under bombs in Gaza cannot be the only option left to people.

Hospitals are overwhelmed. There are no more painkillers.

Our staff tell us about wounded people screaming in pain, and people who can't get to the hospital.'

Today is International Day of #RuralWomen

Women living in rural areas are crucial to the health of people & the planet. Yet they continue to face barriers to health & risks of poverty due to out-of-pocket expenses.

Join us in honoring their contribution

Racism, intolerance & discrimination tear at the fabric of our societies, which is a tragedy for everyone.

But we can all take action by spreading compassion, tolerance & acceptance.
