2023 was the deadliest year on record for humanitarian workers. 2024 is on track to be worse. On #WorldHumanitarianDay, Food and Agriculture Organization demands an end to the violations against aid workers and the impunity with which they are committed. We must #ActForHumanity. We must #LeaveNoOneBehind.
