Yesterday's attacks across #Ukraine have targeted and killed civilians, including children, in their homes while they slept.
This is a breach of International Humanitarian Law and
parties should be held accountable. Children must have the chance to live without sirens and bombs.

Gaza’s aid system is on the brink of collapse.

Health facilities should never be a target in conflict, there must be accountability for attacks against health facilities. Once again, we call for all parties to respect International Humanitarian Law and for a lasting ceasefire.

Thankfully all staff are safe but the centre, which served over 1,000 patients daily and provided children with lifesaving medical care, is severely damaged. Despite this, Juzoor are looking to continue services and have already begun relocating resources.
