One year ago, our colleague Manuel Alejandro Tique was detained while delivering aid to vulnerable communities in Venezuela.
From the Danish Refugee Council, we raise our voice for his release. His family, friends, and colleagues need him back.

We demand an end to this man-made famine and use of starvation a weapon of war by Israeli authorities. The answer is simple, let in principled humanitarian aid at scale. The world can no longer watch without acting as this catastrophe unfolds + the Palestinian people continue to suffer

It’s been three weeks since the EU announced a deal with Israel to deliver ‘aid at scale’ to Gaza.
Since then, none of the commitments have been implemented.

The IPC warns that the worst-case scenario of famine is currently unfolding in the Gaza Strip.
This is no time for smokescreen solutions or empty words. To prevent mass starvation, aid must be allowed in immediately and at scale.

It's time for an immediate, permanent ceasefire; all restrictions lifted; land crossings opened; full access and a principled, UN-led humanitarian response. #CeasefireNow #EndTheSiege

As mass starvation spreads across Gaza, our colleagues and those we serve are wasting away
As the Israeli government’s siege starves the people of Gaza, aid workers are now joining the same food lines, risking being shot just to feed their families.
