Today, UNICEF Representative Meritxell Relaño Arana visited As-Sweida Governorate, where she met with the Governor to discuss the situation of children and families and strengthen ongoing cooperation. During the meeting, she expressed appreciation for the continued support, which has helped facilitate UNICEF’s access and the timely delivery of critical supplies and services. Discussions also highlighted the importance of sustained coordination to ensure safe and consistent access and support the delivery of essential, lifesaving services. Sustained cooperation remains key to reaching every child with the services they need to survive and thrive. #ForEveryChild, #Every_right @RelanoMeritxell @UNICEFmena @UNinSyria @SweidaGov1

For 30 years, Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food remains one of the most powerful tools to treat severe acute malnutrition. Just a small sachet of fortified peanut paste. As the sole provider of RUTF in #Afghanistan, & with donor support, we must sustain this lifeline #ForEveryChild.

This is absolutely unacceptable. Karine was killed in a drone strike that hit a residential building – civilians, including aid workers, live there. Our hearts are with her family, loved ones and all of her colleagues at @UNICEF. Humanitarians should never be a target.

@unicefchief May Karine Buisset Rest in Peace. Deepest condolences to the family and colleagues in DRC

All of us at UNICEF are devastated and outraged by the killing of our colleague Karine Buisset in a reported drone attack in Goma, DRC. My immediate thoughts are with the family, loved ones & colleagues across UNICEF. Civilians, including aid workers, must never be targeted.

Happening now in Damascus: #UNICEF, together with the Government of #Syria and line ministries, is convening the #Joint_Annual_Review — united around one shared priority: #children. 🤝 Participants are reviewing 2025 results and setting 2026 priorities across #health and #nutrition, #education, #child_protection, #water_and_sanitation, #youth_development, and #social_protection, aligning action with the Government’s National Recovery Strategy. “The Government leads the humanitarian and recovery agenda. UNICEF and the UN are here to support, not replace, national systems, so every child in Syria can access the services they deserve.” UNICEF Representative in Syria, Meritxell Relaño Arana. This moment reflects a shared commitment to recovery, partnership, and scale, to help ensure services reach every child, in every governorate. #ForEveryChild, every right 💙 @syrianmofaex @SyrMOfH @SyrMOEgov @SyMOSAAL @SyrMOfE @SyrMOYAS @RelanoMeritxell @UNICEFmena @UNinSyria
