Spent morning with Red Cross Lebanon. They are showing up – despite strikes on them. Under IHL they and all humanitarians must be protected. Healthcare must not be a target. In awe of this courage from volunteers and communities.

I saw the impact of aid cuts firsthand. Injured civilians walk for days to reach care – only to find medicines running out. Local health teams work around the clock to save lives. But funding gaps mean even hospital generators may not keep running. We can change this. #SouthSudan
We are living in time of reckless military adventurism, brutality, impunity and indifference. Critics say that a world like that has no need for UN. But we were made for times like this. My remarks with EU High Representative @kajakallas.bsky.social in Brussels.
A positive. And a first: today we launched our Humanitarian Plan in Damascus with Government of Syria. We aim to reach 8.6M people in 2026 with principled, lifesaving help. Please back partnership and ambition, and hold us to account for delivering.
A cruel swipe of a pen in a rich capital stacks the survival odds even further against the displaced Somali women I met today. Cuts mean they have to go much further to get lifesaving food, medicine and water, with no guarantees they’ll find any. #Somalia
As fighting spreads in Lebanon, Lebanese and Syrian families are fleeing with virtually nothing. They want to go home. They want this war to end. I took their testimonies to the Security Council.
The conflict across the Middle East is having a devastating impact on civilians, and pushing other crises further from view. My interview with BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg on why this is a moment for cooler heads.
South Sudan stands at a dangerous crossroads. Conflict up. Hunger up. Displacement up. Attacks on aid workers up. I saw it firsthand and felt the scale of this despair. We need access, funding and respect for international humanitarian law. My remarks: bit.ly/4vHf7BC
We do not lack laws to protect civilians in war. We lack the courage from states to enforce them.
The best test for humanitarian action is that we create conditions for us to leave. The work ahead in Syria remains significant, but the immense progress made alongside the Syrian government in 18 months is cause for optimism. We need to stay the course.
Back in #Syria – a year after my last visit, when there was a sense of cautious hope. That hope is still here. Fragile, but real. Even amidst new challenges, Syrians are rebuilding – returning home, reopening markets, restoring services. This is a moment we cannot miss.

There are a million better reasons to loathe Kristi Noem, but I'm petty enough to add the insertion of the term "bimbofication" into my mental lexicon. (The fetish itself neither arouses or repulses me, TBH.) But damn, you don't have to kink shame to find the heterosexual lifestyle freaky AF.
