Today marks 15 years since the Convention on Cluster Munitions entered into force.

We must end the use — everywhere, forever.

Our partner, Al-Jaleel Rehabilitation Center, is facing imminent demolition by Israeli authorities.

Thousands rely on it for #Prosthetics, #PhysicalTherapy & #PsychosocialSupport. Destroying it is a direct attack on people with disabilities and a grave breach of International Humanitarian Law.
