In my visit to #DRCongo last year, I saw firsthand the immense challenges - nearly 1 in 4 Congolese faces acute hunger.

Yet, their astonishing resilience shines through. They deserve peace & prosperity that reflect this richly abundant land.

My remarks: bit.ly/3UwPKSt

Conflict continues to fuel global food crises, pushing 135 million people into acute food insecurity in 2023.

The 2024 Global Report on Food Crises #GRFC24 identifies conflict as the main driver of acute hunger this year, particularly in Gaza, Sudan and Haiti.

State of #Gaza 's health care 200 days into the brutal war:

❗️Horrifying destruction and reported mass graves in and around Shifa and Nasser hospitals.
❗️Dire shortage of vital medications and equipment.
❗️Severe challenge in delivering supplies and restoring services.

Seasonal rains in #Somalia are intensifying, causing flash floods, casualties and widespread damage.

The rains are expected to further drive up humanitarian needs, but funding shortfalls pose significant challenges to the response.

Civilian fatalities from #explosiveweapons surged by 130% in 2023 compared to the previous year.

This alarming increase underscores the urgent need to enforce and expand support for the #EWIPA declaration, protecting lives in populated areas.

⏰ The time for complacency is up:

🛑 Stop the killing
🛑 Stop the maiming
🛑 Stop destroying schools
🛑 Stop demolishing hospitals

The use of #explosiveweapons in populated areas damages people’s rights to safety, education and health.

🌍⏳ It’s not too late. The #ClimateCrisis is a race we can still win.

But at the current pace, we’re falling short of goals, notably in the most vulnerable countries.

On #EarthDay , and every day, we must stand up for our planet and take urgent, more ambitious #ClimateAction .

A planet threatened by climate change, by pollution, by biodiversity loss.

A planet that needs to be rescued.

So we must unite.

And we must mobilize all our efforts for #ClimateAction .
