“While welcome, the recognition of a Palestinian State doesn’t mean much if there isn’t a ceasefire in #Gaza. The recognition must be followed by a genuine commitment to a peace process in the region. #CeasefireNow“ — UNRWA Commissioner-General www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhkX... #UNGA80

UNRWA works across the region to provide millions of #Palestine Refugees with: ➡️ healthcare ➡️ education ➡️ psychosocial support ➡️ water and sanitation Learn more: www.unrwa.org/resources/fa... #UNGA80 #UNRWAworks

While welcome, the recognition of a Palestinian State doesn’t mean much if there isn’t a ceasefire in #Gaza, UNRWA Commissioner-General Lazzarini tells James Landale on @bbcnews at #UNGA80. The recognition could bring some hope to people living through an unbearable hell. #CeasefireNow

“My dream is to become a doctor,” says Mohammad. He went from UNRWA classrooms in basic education to earning full marks in Syria’s national Grade 12 exam. Palestine Refugee children in #Syria are going back to school today. #UNRWAworks

For 2 years too long, UNRWA has been calling for a ceasefire in #Gaza. The scale of suffering and destruction is unimaginable. 1.9 million people are forcibly displaced. Tens of thousands have been killed and wounded. On this #PeaceDay – like every day – we call again for a #CeasefireNow

“I am the youngest Student Parliament President in UNRWA schools in Jordan. On the first day of school, I was very excited and happy,” says Shahd, an UNRWA student in Grade 8. 161 UNRWA schools across Jordan provide education to over 100,000 #Palestine Refugee girls and boys. #UNRWAworks

By night, by day, people in #Gaza are forced to flee for their lives. They have nowhere to go. Most shelters are operating at full capacity. Some displaced families are sleeping outdoors and in unsafe areas. No place is safe. #CeasefireNow

In #Gaza, UNRWA colleagues are among those displaced and living in crowded rooms. “The look of misery, fear, and hunger in your children’s eyes is like a slow death for parents,” one of our colleagues says. He continues to serve others while living through unimaginable conditions. #UNRWAworks

The cost to flee homes in #Gaza City - under intense Israeli military operations. Fuel is scarce. UNRWA’s shelter supplies have been banned for almost 7 months. Spaces are overcrowded, hard to find. After nearly 2 years of war people have not had incomes. Let us bring in our aid. #CeasefireNow

🔹Around 11,000 Palestinian UNRWA personnel in Gaza continue to provide services and assistance to an entire population in need, while leading the collective humanitarian response. Our latest report on Gaza and the #WestBank: www.unrwa.org/resources/re...

"#Gaza has been the battleground of a fierce and rampant information war. Disinformation continues to be used as a tool to distract from the atrocities in the war-torn enclave." — UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini 👉 amp.dw.com/en/israel-pr...

“I am very happy to be with my friends and teachers, and to have such great teachers,” says Anas, an UNRWA student in Jordan. UNRWA is supporting the education of over 100,000 #Palestine Refugees in our schools in Jordan. #UNRWAworks

Shift the focus in #Gaza to: ➡️ immediate ceasefire ➡️ humanitarian aid ➡️ political will ➡️ humanity Allow UNRWA to bring in our aid and distribute it safely, and at scale. #CeasefireNow

In #Gaza, our UNRWA colleague lost her home while she was pregnant. “Our son was born, and the war continued." She shares the hardship of having a new life amid forced displacement and blocking aid. Like many, her baby is hungry. Supplies of baby milk are very scarce.

Our Juliette Touma talks to @newhumanitarian.bsky.social about impunity in #Gaza. Let aid in at scale through the UN including UNRWA. Reverse the famine. End the impunity. #CeasefireNow.

“I urge all Member States to demand an immediate ceasefire in #Gaza & facilitate the unfettered deployment of the United Nations’ humanitarian operations to reverse #famine & provide critical assistance to people in need." — UNRWA Commissioner-General, full statement: www.unrwa.org/newsroom/off...

People in #Gaza are living through exponential fear amid bombardment and devastation as airstrikes in Gaza City and the north intensify by the hour. Action now for a #CeasefireNow.

It has been nearly 7 months since UNRWA aid was allowed into #Gaza. UNRWA has a committed team of 11,000 on the ground. They are providing healthcare, water, sanitation, psychosocial support and learning. But supplies are desperately needed. The siege must be lifted. Let us do our work.

People continue to be forced to flee from the intensified Israeli military operation in Gaza City. They arrive at an already overcrowded UNRWA school building, now a makeshift shelter. They have nowhere else to go. UNRWA continues to stay and help the people in #Gaza. #CeasefireNow

“We’ve normalised horror” in #Gaza, our JulietteTouma tells @newhumanitarian.bsky.social “There's been impunity – and that has been going on for a long, long, long time… This carte blanche has got us, all of us, where we are right now.” This must stop.

More and more people in #Gaza are forced to leave their homes. Forced to take the road to nowhere. There is no safe place for them to go. There is no shelter. Urgent action is needed for #CeasefireNow

In #Gaza, children are growing up amid war, hunger and displacement. Their daily life is about survival instead of school and play, with the constant fear of drones and bombs. A generation at risk of being lost. #CeasefireNow

Families in #Gaza are being displaced again and again. Forced from their homes by relentless bombardment, only to end up in overcrowded shelters or tents with no water, no sanitation, no safety. There is nowhere left to go. The siege must be lifted. #CeasefireNow

“I have worked under all conditions, especially during times of war, emergencies, and displacement.” In #Gaza, UNRWA sanitation workers continue clearing waste and debris from shelters and camps, safeguarding the health of thousands of displaced families. #UNRWAworks

"No place is safe in #Gaza No one is safe. Airstrikes in Gaza City and the north are intensifying. More and more people are forced to leave, disoriented and uncertain, heading into the unknown." Full statement by UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini: www.unrwa.org/newsroom/off...

Thousands of people forced from #Gaza City and Jabalya are now in overcrowded shelters, makeshift tents — without clean water, sanitation, or safety. UNRWA continues to provide services, but the crisis is overwhelming. Displacement is growing. No place is safe. #CeasefireNow #UNRWAworks

The Israeli bombardment in the north of #Gaza is constant. Forcing thousands to flee. The only way for many is to walk. There is a shortage of shelters and tents. There is no safe place. Stop the war now and let #UNRWA bring in our critical supplies. #CeasefireNow

“#Gaza is being completely obliterated.” - UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini Children are starving. Families are forcibly displaced. People are terrified. With the large-scale Israeli military operation happening now, political will and decision-making is needed more than ever.

Entire neighbourhoods in Gaza City and Jabalya are being emptied. More than 86% of #Gaza is under displacement orders or militarised zones. Families are fleeing with nowhere safe to go. The siege must be lifted. #CeasefireNow

People in #Gaza City are living through the unimaginable. “All you see is destroyed houses and roads. Air strikes can happen anytime and anywhere. I am always worried and scared,” an UNRWA staff nurse told us. The Israeli military operation must stop. #CeasefireNow

“I have never encountered such blatant disregard for the protected status of humanitarian workers, facilities, and operations under international law,” says UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini about the war in #Gaza. Watch @cnn.com investigates: edition.cnn.com/2025/09/09/w...

“It is catastrophic throughout the city. Nonstop airstrikes everywhere, some happen without prior warning. Almost every moment there a house bombed. Things are escalating in a terrifying way,” an UNRWA doctor working in #Gaza City told us. This war must stop. #CeasefireNow

“We have to act, and it's absolutely unbearable to see the lack of action of the member states,” UNRWA Philippe Lazzarini tells Al-Mamlaka TV. In #Gaza, our staff continue providing life-saving services, while aid is still blocked. Urgent international support is needed.

After losing her home in #Gaza, Rawan faced fear and anxiety. Through UNRWA’s psychosocial support programme, she is slowly healing. Since the war began, UNRWA has provided over 500,000 children with psychological support. Your support makes this possible. Give today: bit.ly/4mRBeQm #UNRWAworks

Life in #Gaza: 🚨Over 700 days of war 🚨Families forcibly displaced 🚨Not enough food, shelter, sanitation 🚨Nowhere is safe The Israeli Authorities continue to ban UNRWA aid supplies from entering. Political will is needed to end this and lift the siege. #CeasefireNow

At least 2,000 desperate and hungry people have been killed while seeking food aid. The vast majority were killed near sites of the so called “Gaza humanitarian foundation”.” Full statement by UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini: www.unrwa.org/newsroom/off...

Israeli Military operations in Gaza City are displacing people. People have no place to go. No place is safe in #Gaza. No one is safe. #Ceasefirenow

🔊Sound on The war in #Gaza has been relentless for over 700 days. The people are living a constant nightmare. A life without rest, without safety. UNRWA has never stopped calling for an immediate #ceasefire, and to lift the ban on lifesaving supplies. Let aid in. #CeasefireNow

“UNRWA continues to be on the ground in #Gaza. Our medical teams are giving health consultations. Our shelters continue to have over 100,000 people living in them,” our Juliette Touma tells @rte.ie. People are exhausted and very hungry. This war has got to stop. #CeasefireNow

Rebuilding Nahr El Bared #Palestine Refugee camp in #Lebanon is the largest project UNRWA has ever implemented. For families, it means more than homes: it’s about dignity and belonging. UNRWA needs additional funding to complete the project and reach the 309 families still waiting to return.

Political will is needed now to end the war in #Gaza. Over 700 days of bombardments, the people have nowhere safe to go. Each day, a never-ending road of fear, destruction, and forced displacement. UNRWA has repeatedly called for a ceasefire. The war must be stopped. #CeasefireNow

Children in #Gaza should be in classrooms, not in the rubble. For the third consecutive year, around 660,000 girls and boys are out of school. Almost all schools are damaged or destroyed. Without urgent action, the children of #Gaza risk becoming a lost generation. #ProtectEducationFromAttack

"UNRWA continues to go hand to mouth," our Juliette Touma tells @thenewarab.bsky.social Donations from Arab countries have dropped 90%. Without urgent funding, services for millions of Palestinian refugees are at risk. Full article: www.newarab.com/news/pressur...

“#Gaza is being obliterated, reduced to a wasteland. Gaza is being emptied from its starving population forced to move into the so called “humanitarian” area of Mawasi.” Full statement by UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini: www.unrwa.org/newsroom/off...

The attacks on residential towers in #Gaza have displaced dozens of families, many left on the streets without shelter or basic necessities. With humanitarian access severely restricted, the suffering of already displaced persons is only deepening. We need a #CeasefireNow.

🔹Military operations have intensified in #Gaza, driving new displacement 🔹The new school year began amid conflict: some 658,000 children in Gaza, including 300,000 UNRWA students cannot access education. Our latest report on Gaza and the #WestBank: www.unrwa.org/resources/re...

“86% of the Gaza Strip is considered to be a military zone,” our Tamara Alrifai tells @france24.com. Conditions in #Gaza continue to be dire: people face severe shortages of basics amid extreme and repeated displacement. The siege must be lifted, and humanitarian agencies allowed to do their work.

In #Gaza, all it would take to reverse the man-made famine is political will and to lift the ban on UNRWA supplies. UNRWA has consistently called for an immediate ceasefire for over 700 days. Our humanitarian aid - banned by the Israeli Authorities - would save lives. Lift the siege. #CeasefireNow

In #Gaza, thousands are being forcibly displaced again, confined to unsafe areas. With schools, hospitals, shelters, and homes destroyed, access to food, water, and essentials is scarce. Survival is a daily struggle. No place is safe, no one is safe. #CeasefireNow

Forced displacement orders uproot people from their homes, leaving each person in #Gaza with just half a square metre—far below global standards of 3.5 m². “So for nearly 2 million Gazans, life has been confined to try to stay alive,” our Tamara Alrifai tells @aljazeera.com.
