The situation in Gaza is critical. The prolonged blockade, now exceeding 40 days, has created lethal conditions with no aid reaching those in need. Women and girls are particularly vulnerable, facing dire circumstances. UNFPA and partners are working to deliver essential services despite growing obstacles.

The escalating crisis in Sudan, particularly for women and girls, demands our continued attention. As global focus shifts, their desperate needs risk being overlooked. The weaponization of sexual violence and the severe lack of essential services, with only 25% of life-saving facilities fully functional and further cuts imminent, paint a dire picture. It is imperative that we do not turn our backs. #FundSudan NOW.➡️ https://unf.pa/4473Yyn
