2023 was the deadliest year on record for humanitarians. Honouring them on #WorldHumanitarianDay is not enough. In Gaza, in Sudan & many other places, aid workers are attacked, killed, injured & abducted. We demand an end to impunity so that perpetrators face justice.

8 aid workers were killed in #Ethiopia in 2024 while helping the most vulnerable populations. On #WorldHumanitarianDay, we appeal to end attacks on civilians and aid workers. #ActForHumanity
