The Adré border crossing between Chad & Sudan is a lifeline for aid in Sudan. I saw it first-hand in Chad last year.
I welcome the 3-month extension but it must become permanent.
Unrestricted access. Aid must get to those most in need.

@Peter_Biro @ECHO_CESAfrica @UEauBurundi @EU_Commission @hadjalahbib Children make up most of the camp’s population. Many missed school and carry trauma.
EU support provides protection, education and psychosocial support — restoring some stability.

The conflict in the Middle East continues to escalate.
10 health workers & 3 journalists were killed in 🇱🇧 in the last 48 hours, victims of 🇮🇱 military operations. This is unacceptable.
#IHL must be respected. Always.
A political solution is long overdue.

Israel's expanding military operations in southern Lebanon have resulted in the death of yet another health worker today. A paramedic was killed in a strike on an ambulance in Bint Jbeil. Additionally, a medical warehouse in the same city was destroyed in an attack. Prior to today's strikes, @WHO has verified that 51 Lebanese health workers have been killed since 2 March, including nine paramedics just yesterday. Attacks on health facilities must cease immediately. This cannot become the norm. Health workers are safeguarded under international humanitarian law and should not be targeted. Peace is the best medicine.
