MEDIA RELEASE: Nearly 230,000 children, pregnant women & new mothers could die in the coming months due to hunger in Sudan, unless urgent, life-saving funding is released. "We are seeing massive hunger, suffering & death. Yet the world looks away." - Dr Arif Noor Save the Children International.
Due to the crisis, millions of children have fled their homes in Sudan and continue to cross the border into South Sudan. I had the opportunity to share with Al Jazeera World how this situation needs the world’s attention and support.
"The situation in Gaza is as dire as it comes." Janti Soeripto was in Gaza this week. This is what she saw 👇
All of us at Save the Children US are grieving with our World Central Kitchen colleagues after the senseless loss of 7 team members in Gaza. Humanitarian aid workers are #NotATarget. We need safe unfettered humanitarian access and a definitive ceasefire now.
It is an unspeakable tragedy that World Central Kitchen staff, like so many other aid workers have lost their lives while saving others. The work of humanitarians in #Gaza is vital, they are protected under international humanitarian law. The pattern of attacks on aid workers is an outrage.
It’s easy to feel outraged & hopeless hearing the horrifying news coming out of #Gaza every day. But we need to act. Listen to our CEO Mat Tinkler explain how our voices can have a collective impact. We urge you to email your member of parliament today: click.savethechildren.org.au/take-action-fo…
He’s not only driving laps on the racetrack, but Daniel Ricciardo is helping us drive real change for children too 🥲 Thanks to his Aus GP helmet auction, made possible by Optus , an amazing $61,000 has been raised to support our work with Hands on Learning ❤️ Thank you so much!
Let's not forget the 11 Australian women and 20 Australian children trapped in these appalling detention camps, the Australian government must step up and bring its citizens home Amnesty International Australia 🕯

VLOG: "People in #Rafah are terrified, have to make extremely difficult choices to stay & face potential conflicts on their doorstep, or to leave and face an uncertain future where there is no land nor safe space for children." Rachael Cummings, Save the Children International Team Leader #Gaza.
