Russian attacks on Ukraine are again hitting humanitarian actors. A @RedCrossUkraine warehouse was destroyed in Kyiv, and a drone struck a @WFP vehicle in Dnipropetrovsk.
This is a deeply worrying trend. Humanitarian actors are protected under international humanitarian law.
I condemn last night’s Russian attack on Ukraine, which yet again struck civilian sites, killing and injuring many. Russia's attacks on civilians are deeply concerning.
Our thoughts are with the victims and all those affected. Norway remains steadfast in its support for Ukraine.
That's a wrap on ”Resourcing #A2J for Women and Girls in Crisis Settings”!
Thank you to everyone who joined and to Govts of #Sweden, #Norway, #Canada and #Switzerland, along with our partners at @UNHumanRights, @WHO for making this possible. And of course, gratitude to #UNTF
