A lasting ceasefire is the only way to protect civilians and get humanitarian assistance to people in desperate need. We continue to call for a complete and permanent #ceasefireNOW .

The UN Security council has passed a resolution calling for an 'immediate ceasefire' during Ramadan in Gaza – this is an important step forward and must be swiftly implemented to protect civilian lives – especially children.

Today I saw long lines of blocked relief trucks waiting to be let into Gaza.

It’s time to truly flood Gaza with life-saving aid.

The choice is clear: surge or starvation.

Let’s choose the side of help, the side of hope & the right side of history.

I will not give up.
