We welcome High Commissioner @BarhamSalih on his first visit to the U.S. this week. He brings an important message to Washington: sustained support to refugees is not only lifesaving, but it also helps create solutions, stability and self-reliance.

There is no such thing as “just” another year of war. Every life lost, every family forced to flee, leaves a mark. Sudan cannot become a crisis that the world learns to ignore.

Some 14 million people have been forced to flee war in Sudan -- one in four Sudanese. After three years of relentless war with no clear end in sight, the people of Sudan need greater global attention, support and peace. unhcr.org/news/briefing-…

Just arrived in Beirut after last week’s devastating strikes. Over 1 million people displaced in this small country. I am here in solidarity —and to urgently push for protection of civilians and an end to this spiraling conflict.

Escalating conflict in Lebanon is more than what you see in the headlines. Life and loss exist side by side. Our colleague Dalal, who calls Lebanon home, shares what that feels like.

As the crisis in #Sudan enters its fourth year, fighting continues across large parts of country, driving displacement & deepening daily suffering of millions. Without global attention the risks & hardship for those displaced will only grow. Briefing Note⬇️unhcr.org/news/briefing-…
