Today, as a neutral intermediary, we facilitated the release of 94 detainee members of SAF, reuniting them with their families in Zaleingei, #Darfur.
We don't negotiate or influence the decision on who is released and when. This decision is taken by the parties to the conflict.

I have arrived in Gaza, where people’s suffering is intolerable.
I repeat our urgent call for civilians to be protected in line with the laws of war and for aid to enter unimpeded.
The hostages must be released and @ICRC allowed to safely visit them.

.@ICRC mourns the loss of our colleague Abdellatif Ali Moussa who was killed in Gaza along with several family members.
The toll of this conflict on frontline workers is unacceptable.
Humanitarian workers and civilians are not part of the fight. They must be protected.

We are devastated by the killing of our valued colleague Abdellatif Ali Moussa, along with several of his family, in northern #Gaza. Abdellatif worked as a driver for the ICRC for some 20 years. We extend our profound condolences to Abdellatif's family, friends & colleagues.

Today I met families of hostages and Israel's foreign and health ministers. The families' pain is simply heart-wrenching.
The hostages must immediately be released.
@ICRC will not stop working to gain access to them: and we need agreements to be reached that allow us to work.

Extremely concerning reports from @ICRC and @PalestineRCS staff at Al Quds on the critical situation of hospitals in Gaza.
Thousands of wounded, displaced people and medical staff are at risk.
We strongly reiterate that hospitals must be protected in line with the laws of war.

It is intolerable that the catastrophic humanitarian situation has lasted a month;
It is unacceptable that it lasts any longer.
Today at the Gaza forum I urged States to protect civilians and to ensure the practical implementation of the laws of war.
