What ceasefire is this? At least 130 children reportedly killed in Gaza since it took effect in October 2025.

“Children in Gaza are not statistics.” My briefing today @ungeneva.bsky.social

The fragile Gaza ceasefire keeps showing the world that celebrations were perhaps too premature. Over one million children are exhausted and can no longer endure more violence and death. All parties to the conflict must do anything and everything to uphold their agreement.

Children in Sudan have been at the sharpest edge of this endless horror. Displaced, killed, injured, abused, starved. It needs to end. Sudanese Paramilitaries Claim Control of Key Army Garrison in Darfur www.nytimes.com/2025/10/26/w...

Beyond the initial excitement & optimism, over one million children in Gaza now need consistent actions & humanity. The bombs & killings lessened, but many other deadly threats remain. They have been through hell for over two years. www.unicef.org/press-releas...

Explosive remnants of war are a massive risk for at least 5 million children in Syria. Nearly 300,000 deadly devices are scattered across the country. UNICEF’s Ricardo Pires highlights the challenges.

Horrifying reports of at least 200 children killed and 303 injured since the ceasefire collapsed in Gaza. That’s over 500 children in about 48 hours. Unprecedented brutality after 15 months of unrelenting war. Humanity will struggle to come back from this.

“Every day without action is another that threatens the children of Syria. These children – who have lived their entire lives in danger – deserve to live the rest of their lives in safety.” - UNICEF Communication Manager Ricardo Pires. Full statement: uniceflink.org/3WjMRVx

Girls and boys in #Syria continue to suffer the brutal impact of unexploded ordnance (UXO) at an alarming rate. In December '24 alone, @unicef.org received reports of 116 children killed/injured by UXO, an average of nearly four per day. @ricardopires.bsky.social www.unicef.org/press-releas...

All I want for 2025 is more justice in the world.

It is a grim irony that children, women, and young girls bear the brunt of conflicts driven by the decisions of a tiny handful of powerful men—decisions that cause immense suffering. Good to join @carlnasman.bsky.social this weekend to discuss the toll 2024's conflicts have taken on children

“Gaza death trap” by Doctors Without Borders (MSF) says there are “clear signs of ethnic cleansing” by Israeli forces in the Palestinian territory.

Heavy winds & rainfall from #CycloneChido damaged or destroyed over 35k homes and affected more than 90k children across Cabo Delgado province, in northern #Mozambique, after the storm made landfall on Sunday. @unicefmozambique.bsky.social @guytaylor.bsky.social www.unicef.org/press-releas...

I spoke to Newzroom Africa about the impact of #CycloneChido and the risks of waterborne diseases like cholera, diarrhoea and malaria, which, if left untreated, can be deadly for children: www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-87...

UNICEF is on the ground, working with our partners to meet the most urgent needs of children and families impacted by #CycloneChido in northern #Mozambique. I spoke to @BBCWorld 7 'O Clock News about the cyclone's impact and how @UNICEF is responding: youtu.be/XtHkFggvW7g?...

Biden administration officials, watching the remarkable speed of the Syrian rebel advance, increasingly see the possibility of the regime of Bashar al-Assad falling within days, five US officials told CNN

“Day after day, week after week for nearly 14 months now, Gaza has been nothing short of hell on Earth. No child should have to endure such atrocities and carnage, and no parent should have to bury their child. Gaza has become a graveyard for children and families.” www.unicef.org/press-releas...

Haunting images of people being forcefully displaced from shelters in Beit Lahia, Gaza. Several reports of drones dropping grenades or opening fire along the routes.

Reports of 4 children killed by airstrikes today in Nuseirat camp while gathered around a kitchen/bakery searching for food. There is no safe for children in Gaza, even when they are desperately hungry. This insanity must stop.

Two girls & a woman died tragically today suffocated by despair while trying to get food in Deir Al Balah. How can such horror continue to be normalized? Never again, said the world once. How about right now😡 www.wfp.org/news/tragic-...

Children in Gaza are entering winter now, exhausted by 14 months of unrelenting war, trauma & loss. They need everything and have nothing. Trapped in a power struggle and forever scarred by massacres. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/27/w...

Famine is imminent in the north of Gaza. Hunger prevails everywhere else in the Strip. Death, trauma and indiscriminate killings continue, with children paying the highest price for a war they never had any part in. This madness must end. apnews.com/article/isra...

The ICC said there is reasonable grounds to assert Netanyahu and Gallant engaged in "the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts." The warrants remain classified in part to protect witnesses.

WIRED has tracked thousands of US military & intel personnel coming & going from classified sites, incl. NSA hubs & nuclear vaults. We know where they sleep, what they eat, and which brothels they visit. It's an ocean of blackmail & national secrets within reach of every spy agency in the world.
