This evening, Israeli residents set fire twice to the perimeter of the UNRWA Headquarters in occupied East Jerusalem.

This took place while UNRWA and other UN Agencies’ staff were on the compound.
While there were no casualties among our staff, the fire caused extensive damage…

Horrific. The Israeli government is proceeding with plans to invade #Rafah

Palestinian civilians have nowhere else to go. This is where they were told they would be safe.

The international community must act immediately to stop this now! #AllEyesOnRafah #CeasefireNOW

The fact that Israel banned Al Jazeera hours before beginning its assault on Rafah is not a coincidence.

After everything we’ve seen in the last 7 months, imagine what they’ll do when they think no one is watching.

This story is worse than it looks — this isn’t about fraud or corruption.

Shell got 2 for 1 carbon credits as part of a subsidy scheme deemed necessary to make carbon capture investable. This is carbon markets doing exactly what they’re supposed to. ft.com/content/93938a…

We regret cabinet decision to close Al Jazeera in Israel. A free & independent media is essential to ensuring transparency & accountability. Now, even more so given tight restrictions on reporting from Gaza. Freedom of expression is a key human right. We urge govt to overturn ban

Creating a climate fund was hard. Naming it is, too. ift.tt/3XjqWeA
