Play Video: Security Council, Lebanon, Ukraine & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (24 April 2024)

Noon briefing by Farhan Haq, Deputy Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: -Occupied Palestinian Territory -Lebanon -Security Council -Democratic Republic of the Congo -Ukraine -Deputy Secretary-General -Haiti -Guest Tomorrow -Climate -International Days -Financial Contribution -Guests OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY Our colleagues from the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs report that there were no humanitarian missions to northern Gaza today, as the Israeli army closed its checkpoints on two roads due to troop movements. Yesterday, however, UNRWA - the UN Relief and Works Agency - reports that it undertook a joint mission with UNICEF to the north, to Jabalia. The agencies provided medical aid and water purification assistance to people there. It remains extremely difficult to secure safe and unimpeded access for humanitarian movements to northern Gaza. OCHA reports that as of today, more than one-third of aid missions to the north in April were denied or impeded by Israeli authorities. Meanwhile, as hostilities across Gaza continue, the World Health Organization warns that it is extremely challenging to resupply and support hospitals working to strengthen and restore services. Yesterday, Al Awda Hospital in An Nuseirat refugee camp, in Gaza’s Middle Area, was reportedly hit. In a social media post, the Wordld Health Organization’s Director-General, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said the attack disrupted the solar energy system that supplies electricity to the hospital. Damage to water and fuel tanks was also reported. Over 200 Al Awda staff have been providing services to around 1,200 people each day. Dr. Tedros repeated his call to stop targeting and militarizing hospitals. As of yesterday, WHO has documented nearly 890 attacks on health care in the Occupied Palestinian Territory since 7 October. This includes 443 attacks in Gaza. Of the 36 hospitals in the Gaza Strip, 32 have been damaged. In the West Bank, WHO reports 446 attacks on health care. Staying in the West Bank, OCHA reports that between 18 and 22 April, 18 Palestinians were killed in the West Bank by Israeli forces. This includes 14 people, among them three children, killed in Nur Shams Refugee Camp during a large-scale operation by Israeli forces. Hundreds of homes in the camp were damaged, and several commercial buildings were destroyed. LEBANON The UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) reports that tensions remain high in southern Lebanon, with daily exchanges of fire continuing along the Blue Line in repeated breaches of the cessation of hostilities and in violation of Security Council resolution 1701 (2006). UNIFIL reiterates its call for these exchanges to cease as well as for all actors to exercise maximum restraint and to avoid any action that could lead to further escalation. The Head of UNIFIL and Force Commander, General Aroldo Lazaro, continued to hold discussions with local civilian groups, including religious leaders from Tyre, in the context of the escalating tensions. General Lazaro expressed his gratitude for their continued support to UNIFIL. SECURITY COUNCIL This morning, the Security Council was briefed on the situation in the Great Lakes region. Huang Xia, the Special Envoy for the region, told Council members that he continues to be concerned by the intensification of conflict as well as by the deterioration of the humanitarian situation in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. This, he added, is in addition to the persistent rhetoric of confrontation between Congo and Rwanda, in a context where hate speech is proliferating. Mr. Xia called for urgent efforts to appease tensions, and for dialogue. In addition to supporting the current diplomatic initiatives underway, he encouraged the countries of the region to fully engage in efforts to revitalize and fully implement the Peace, Security and Cooperation Framework for the DRC and the region. Also speaking at the Council this morning was Joyce Msuya, the Deputy Emergency Relief Coordinator. She said the humanitarian community has stepped up its efforts but added that the humanitarian operation is dangerously overstretched. She said that urgent steps must be taken to resolve the conflict and avoid further deterioration of the situation in DRC, and across the region. After so many years, people in DRC – and in the Great Lakes region – deserve the opportunity to live in peace, she concluded. This afternoon, Sigrid Kaag, the Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator for Gaza, is scheduled to brief Council members. We also expect her to speak to you at the stakeout, following the Council’s session.

Zimbabwean American actress Danai Gurira said, “The point is that reversing the upward trajectory of military spending would be a way of reducing the number of victims in need of support in the first place. The point is, working on arms control and ammunition management is also working to prevent conflict-related sexual violence.” The UN Women Goodwill Ambassador told Council Members, “The issue of impunity, the knowledge that one can rape a mother, a daughter, a son, a child and get away with it, feeds the pathology that keeps this issue dire and growing.” “We seem to not have found a way to create a deterrent that truly alters its perpetuation, and we know such deterrence exists. But the complicity around sexual violence being a spoil or inevitable consequence of war seems to deter various structures from truly holding parties accountable,” she added. Gurira said, “I'd like to speak to the governments here today who allow this to occur within their borders with impunity. If you refuse to protect your most vulnerable, yet allow their bodies to be a spoil of your political conflicts, you should be held accountable and should not be in a position of leadership.”

In Kosovo, where tensions remain high between the ethnic Albanian and ethnic Serb communities, the United Nations is leading efforts to promote open communication and dialogue. The UN Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) was established in 1999, well before the declaration of independence in 2008, and today plays a central role in promoting peace and security, and respect for human rights, in a region where memories of the wars of the late Twentieth Century, fought between the countries of the former Yugoslavia, are still fresh for many who suffered directly or lost loved ones. On 22 April, Caroline Ziadeh, the head of UNMIK, briefed the Security Council on the current situation in Kosovo, and the ongoing tensions between the Albanian speaking and ethnic Serb population. After the briefing, she came into the UN News studios to explain that, despite the considerable difficulties, progress in bringing together the two communities is far from impossible.

Play Video: Climate, Plastic Pollution & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (23 April 2024)

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: - Briefings Tomorrow - Climate - Plastic Pollution - Occupied Palestinian Territory - Security Council - South Sudan - Somalia - Ethiopia - Democratic Republic of the Congo - Ukraine - Haiti - Migrants - UK-Rwanda Asylum Law - International Days - Financial Contribution CLIMATE This afternoon, the Secretary-General will speak at the launch of the UN Development Programme’s Climate Promise 2025. The event will showcase leadership and collective action to tackle the climate crisis on the road to the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement in 2025. The Secretary-General will underscore that in the climate battle, it’s not all doom and gloom, as many actors are mobilizing to create plans aligned with the 1.5-degree limit. He will also encourage countries to make the most of this new initiative, and donors to provide it with the finance it needs for maximum impact. PLASTIC POLLUTION I just wanted to flag to you that the fourth session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee to develop an international legally binding instrument on plastic pollution, including in the marine environment, is taking place this week in Ottawa, in Canada, and is scheduled to go through next Monday. In a tweet, the Secretary-General said that every living being, and every part of the planet, are harmed by plastics and their production and said we need a strong plastics treaty that upholds human rights and addresses the full life cycle of plastics. We’ll be updating you on the status of the talks later in the week. OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY In addition to what Mr. Lazzarini said on Gaza, I wanted to tell you that we and our partners are providing nutrition support at nearly 300 sites, including more than 20 health facilities, nearly 240 formal and informal shelters, and more than three dozen sites in host communities. UNICEF has expanded outpatient treatment for acutely malnourished children to 95 different sites in Gaza – including 36 in the north and 46 in Rafah. These outpatient therapeutic programmes are being supported by more than a dozen humanitarian partners working on nutrition. Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported yesterday that the agency and its partners managed to evacuate four patients and their caregivers from Kamal Adwan hospital, in northern Gaza, over the weekend – that includes a nine-year-old boy. Also in a social media post, WHO’s Director-General Dr. Tedros said that the team could only partially complete their mission to that facility and to Al-Awda hospital due to ongoing hostilities, as well as severe delays at checkpoints. As a result, fuel and medical supplies were unable to reach Kamal Adwan and partners could not assess the needs at Al-Awda to support the restoration of services there. Dr. Tedros said that humanitarian aid and missions in Gaza urgently need safe, sustained and smooth passage across Gaza to serve people in critical need of life-saving care. We continue to contend with major obstacles that are limiting the scale of the humanitarian response in Gaza, including active hostilities, impassable roads, unexploded ordnance, fuel shortages, delays at checkpoints, and Israeli restrictions that prevent us from bringing in items essential for enabling aid deliveries.

Play Video: Terrifying Moment Russian Missile Collapses Ukrainian TV Tower

This is the moment a 240-metre television tower in Ukraine broke in half and collapsed into the ground. Local officials said the tower fell after a Russian airstrike hit Kharkiv. Ukrainian President Zelensky said the attack was “an intimidation to make the terror noticeable to the whole city” and an attempt to limit Kharkiv’s “communication and access to information”. Some experts predict that Russia is edging towards a renewed ground offensive against Kharkiv. It’s not the first time Russia has struck the TV tower, the first time being in March 2022 just after the war began. But Kharkiv has seen an increase in attacks in the last month and its shortage in air defence supplies has led President Zelensky to call for more funding and aid to help support his country. #ukraine #russia #kharkiv Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/
