It was an honour to be present for the #HolyFire ceremony at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in #Jerusalem today. With access restrictions for worshippers and the impact of the war in Gaza, a light in the darkness is more important than ever. Happy Orthodox #Easter!

C'était un honneur d'être présent aujourd'hui à la cérémonie du Feu Sacré à l'église du Saint-Sépulcre à #Jérusalem. Avec les restrictions d’accès pour les fidèles et l’impact de la guerre à Gaza, il est important de célébrer une lumière dans l’obscurité. Joyeuses #Pâques!

The health-care system in #Gaza is on its knees. Humanitarians have set up 9 field hospitals, but this is not enough to attend to the continuous influx of patients. Thousands need to be evacuated for treatment they can't access within the Strip. 🔊 Hear from staff on site 🔽
