As winter approaches, UNRWA has enough supplies to feed Gaza's entire population for three months, but the Israeli government continues to obstruct delivery. theguardian.com/world/2025/nov…

Out of the 50,000 attendees at COP29 last year, we saw only 180 indigenous representatives. How can we fairly discuss real climate justice when this tiny fraction represents the people who protect 80% of Earth's biodiversity? #ClimatePlunder #COP30 #ClimateJustice

I am deeply concerned about the continued violations of the ceasefire in Gaza. They must stop. Everyone must abide by the decisions of the first phase of the peace agreement.

The horrible thing is that this massacre was entirely predictable yet no one did anything to stop it, most notably by failing to pressure the United Arab Emirates to stop arming the Rapid Support Forces in Sudan that committed it. x.com/amanpour/statu…

You can see the blood from space. Horrifying images are emerging from El Fasher after the RSF stormed the city. Executions, reports of mass killings in a hospital and satellite images that appear to show piles of bodies. @nadaabashir reports on the horror of Sudan's civil war.

The exhausted survivors from Al Fasher that reach our NRC reception centres in Tawila and elsewhere in Darfur tell horror stories of massacres, gang rape and starvation. We scale up our relief as fast as we can, but still have no access to Fasher and there is still no safe…

This is #Sudan's darkest hour. The relentless violence, massive displacement, and severe funding cuts demand immediate and decisive action. brnw.ch/21wX42e

“I will never have mercy on you,” the commander responds. “Our job is only killing.” Chilling reporting from @khoureld and @mmkelly22 on an RSF killing spree unfolding in #ElFashir Sudan, where less than 250,000 civilians remain amidst a military siege wapo.st/4qruyuV

After months of warnings from aid workers and first responders, Al-Fashir has fallen to the RSF who are documenting their atrocities. The fate of Darfur is now in the hands of a paramilitary group born out of the militia accused of commiting genocide - now and twenty years ago.

After 18 months of surviving forced starvation and shelling, a key Sudanese city has fallen to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF). Sky's @YousraElbagir explains what this means for the war. 🔗 trib.al/qgOUDqd #sudanwar #sudan #worldnews

There is an emergency press conference taking place right now (online) with NGO's about the situation in El Fasher. Pretty harrowing stuff. One person said what is happening in El Fasher in past 48 hours is akin to Rwanda 1994 in the scale of mass killings perpetrated by RSF…

"This morning new arrivals came in with clothes soaked in blood and torn by thorns from the desert along the way. Their condition is heartbreaking. Everyone here is deeply worried about El Fasher and those who couldn't leave. We have no information about them at all." Sudanese…

El Fasher is at breaking point. People are trapped and fighting is advancing further into the city. Ceasefire now, in El Fasher, in Darfur and throughout Sudan.

All eyes must be on Al Fashir, Sudan. The international community must send a clear message: further attacks on civilians, aid workers, or essential services will not be tolerated. Thousands remain trapped under siege, running out of food, water & medicine. We call on all…

Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, has been held by the Israeli military for 8 months without trial. U.S. lawmakers are calling for his release. “We had so much trust in our blue passport,” his sister said. “We thought it could protect us.” --> wapo.st/3L8LQwG
