Honoured to be in Lebanese Parliament today to see election of President Joseph Aoun. A signal of hope for 🇱🇧 after so many challenges. Key next step under his leadership is swift formation of government committed to take forward much-needed reforms. 🇬🇧 stands ready to support.

"الانفجارات في لبنان في الأسبوع الحالي وقصف إسرائيل لجنوب بيروت اليوم هما أحدث دائرة عنف مميتة، ويقلقنا بشدة سقوط ضحايا مدنيين نتيجة تلك الأحداث. ووجود أطفال من بين الضحايا مؤلم بشكل خاص." - نص كلمة السفير جيمس كاريوكي ow.ly/TuLS50TscNO

On the fourth anniversary of the devastating Beirut port blast on August 4, 2020 at 18:07, our hearts go out to all those affected then and now. Our flag at half mast. #٤_اب #انفجار_بيروت #انفجار_مرفأ_بيروت #Beirut #lebanon

تكرر المملكة المتحدة دعوة اليونيفيل إلى وقف الأعمال العدائية على طول الخط الأزرق وتجديد الالتزام بتنفيذ قرار مجلس الأمن الدولي 1701. إن الهدوء الذي ساد يوم أمس على الخط الأزرق يوفّر فرصة لإعادة التركيز على الحل الطويل الأمد للسلام.
UNIFIL@UNIFIL_

The parties must reaffirm their commitment to UN Security Council resolution 1701 and the cessation of hostilities, while pursuing long-term solutions to address the underlying causes of conflict.”

Thinking of Beirut today, and of all those still waiting for justice. It's been far too long. #BeirutExplosion

@himat900 Sadly I only visited (the first time in 1969, and several times in 2022), but never lived there.

#ANZAC Day always an important opportunity to remember the courageous contributions of 🇦🇺 & 🇳🇿 in multiple theatres around the world. I always add a quiet thought for my great grandfather who landed on Gallipoli OTD 1915 w/ 1st Battalion, #LancashireFusiliers. KIA 2 weeks later.
Royal British Legion@PoppyLegion

On #AnzacDay we remember the immense contribution made by thousands of men and women from across every part of Australia and New Zealand in operations and conflicts across the globe. Their service and sacrifice will not be forgotten.

The first International Day to Combat Islamophobia is a call for action to stamp out the poison of anti-Muslim hatred. Discrimination diminishes us all. We must stand up against it. Today & every day, we must counter the forces of division by reaffirming our common humanity.

Those who ban women from national life, like the #Taliban, are saying none of these achievements should have happened. The world would have been a poorer, more ignorant & more violent place. That's exactly what will happen to #Afghanistan if #AfghanWomen are erased from society.
The Nobel Prize@NobelPrize

Happy International Women's Day! We're celebrating women who have changed the world. Here's all of the amazing women who have received the #NobelPrize and their remarkable achievements at the time of the award. Who are the women who inspire you the most? #IWD2023
