What happened on Saturday in Israel was horrific...still is horrific given ongoing injuries and hostages. What's happening in Gaza now - and to come - is horrific too. There are heartbreaking interviews with Israelis and Palestinians. This is one bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w1…
Five IFRC network members killed. Civilians and healthcare workers must be respected and protected. #NotATarget @PalestineRCS @Mdais
We are saddened to hear that while bringing lifesaving support to people, several @PalestineRCS staff and volunteers have been injured and their ambulances and offices damaged. We repeat: Humanitarian teams must be protected and respected. They are #NotATarget.
Libya floods: what you need to know?
In Guatemala, heavy rains caused a landslide which has swept away homes & livelihoods. Teams from @CRGuatemalteca are on the ground rescuing people & providing relief. My thoughts are with everyone impacted by this disaster. We @ifrc are ready to support.
'Sometimes I think world leaders complain more than people in distress'. Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies Head @jagan_chapagain is first guest on 'People in the Red Vest'. Good listen spotify.link/wm5kYffhiDb
Our Director of Disasters, Climate and Crisis @carolineholt_1 spoke to @trtworld about how the IFRC has been dealing with global disasters and climate crisis-related disasters at #UNGA78.
Yesterday’s journey through the mountain roads. Feel very good to know that those villages that had not yet received assistance finally did. That’s not the end but it’s a good step. Well done @MaMrcs
The IFRC has launched an emergency appeal for 100 million Swiss Francs to further scale up relief efforts of @MaMrcs. "This emergency response is a marathon, not a sprint: people affected by the earthquake will need support for weeks and months to come", says @jagan_chapagain.
@SimNasr @JamesAndreF24 @dougf24 @sarahmorriseuro @IkrameKohl @NRushworth 🔴🇲🇦 #Morocco has declared three days of national mourning after the deadly #earthquake overnight. What is the scale of the devastation? @MonteReports asked Manager, Strategy and Global Network at the @ifrc, which has rescue teams on the ground, @BenoistC 👇
“The next 24 to 48 hours will be critical in terms of saving lives. Search and rescue efforts will be prioritised in parallel, of course, with making sure that those that we know have survived are taken care of.” — Hear from @carolineholt_1 with @AJEnglish.
A powerful 6.8-magnitude earthquake struck Morocco last night causing widespread damage. Teams from @MaMrcs responded immediately supporting the affected people. My thoughts are with everyone impacted by this disaster. IFRC is ready to support.
The Moroccan Red Crescent @MaMrcs is helping with immediate search and rescue operation after yesterday's earthquake. IFRC is assessing what the needs are and where best to help. Our spokesperson @TDellaLonga gives an update to @AlJazeera on the earthquake response.
