Mednarodna skupnosti poziva Izrael, naj v celoti odpravi zaporo dobav človekoljubne pomoči v Gazo, več držav je v nasprotnem primeru pripravljenih ukrepati. Prvi mož Agencije za pomoč palestinskim beguncem Philippe Lazzarini se boji, da se uničenje v enklavi bliža kritični ravni. Morda se bližamo točki, ko Gaza ne bo več primeren kraj za življenje Palestincev. - Članice Unije potrdile 17-ti sveženj sankcij proti Moskvi. - Vlada podpira predlog stranke NSi za možnost prenosa delnic Vzajemne na družinske člane. - V Ljubljani začela delovati platforma za prevoze Uber.

Dos meses después de que se bloqueara toda la ayuda humanitaria, Philippe Lazzarini que "la hambruna se está extendiendo" dentro de Gaza.

Superata la soglia dei 50'000 morti e dei 110'000 feriti, la Striscia di Gaza sembra aver perso il conto. Negli scorsi giorni, diverse organizzazioni non governative hanno lanciato l'ennesimo grido d'allarme sulla mancanza di beni di base come acqua, cibo e farmaci. Le Nazioni Unite per bocca di Philippe Lazzarini hanno definito la Striscia una “zona di morte post-apocalittica“. In una Gaza dove da 50 giorni non entrano più aiuti, dove sopravvivono 2 milioni di palestinesi e con loro almeno 58 ostaggi israeliani rapiti il 7 ottobre 2023, Israele rimane intenzionato a colpire fino all'annientamento di Hamas. E intanto Hamas si dice disposto a cedere la Striscia a condizione di poter mantenere quel che resta dei suoi arsenali. Modem fa il punto della situazione prima di tutto umanitaria con:PADRE CARLOS FERRERO, parrocchia di GazaMICHELE GIORGIO, giornalista, collaboratore RSI, Gerusalemme DANIEL BETTINI, giornalista. caporedattore esteri a Yediot Ahronot, Tel AvivALESSANDRO MIGLIORATI – responsabile della logistica per Emergency, Gaza PAOLO PEZZATI, portavoce di Oxfam Italia

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 27-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,290 on turnover of $5.8-billion N-T. The market moved higher again on Thursday, after a Wall Street rally overnight that followed better profit reports than expected from major companies. Philippines on track to lead Southeast Asian tourist arrivals in Taiwan for2024 The Tourism Administration says the Philippines is on track to become the top Southeast Asian source of tourists to Taiwan in 2024. It will be the first time that visitors from the Philippines will have topped the list. Data shows that 415,635 visitors were recorded arriving in Taiwan from January to November. The figure exceeded the 384,000 visitors from Malaysia and the 376,000 tourist arrivals from Singaporeans over the same period. Thailand was fourth with 356,000 visitors, and Vietnam was fifth with 344,000. According to the Tourism Administration, the Philippines ranked at number five globally (全球) in terms of visitor arrivals in Taiwan - behind Japan, Hong Kong and Macau, South Korea and the United States. Russian Lawmaker on Trump Putin Meeting A senior Russian lawmaker believes a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin could happen as early as this month or next. The chair of the Russian Parliament's International Affairs Committee told Russian state media that plans for a meeting are at an "advanced (後階段的) stage" and that "it will take place soon". Stuart Smith has more from Kyiv UNRWA Head on Israeli Ban The head of the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, Philippe Lazzarini, says an Israeli ban on his institution has not forced it to halt (停止) its services so far but that in the long run, the agency faces an “existential threat.” Israel last week formally banned UNRWA from operating on its territory. Lazzarini says he sees his agency as the target of a “massive disinformation campaign” with a “very great objective to try to dismantle the agency because of political considerations.” Greece Santorini Declares State of Emergency Greece has declared a state of emergency on Santorini because of the hundreds of undersea earthquakes that have shaken the resort island for nearly a week. The ministry of civil protection's announcement Thursday will provide authorities faster access to state resources. A magnitude 5.2 quake late Wednesday was the most powerful recorded since the series of quakesstarted on Jan. 31. A government spokesman says multiple emergency services and the military were already mobilized to support the island. The quakes has caused minimal (極微的) damage. Experts don't yet know if it could be leading to a stronger earthquake. Thousands of residents and seasonal workers have left, mostly evacuating to the Greek mainland by ferry. That was the I.C.R.T.

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, was this week ordered to stop its operations in occupied East Jerusalem, three months after Israel's parliament voted to ban it. UNRWA is the main provider of humanitarian aid and other public services for Palestinians. In East Jerusalem, it runs 12 facilities that provide critical public services, including schools where more than 1,200 children are enrolled and free clinics that serve more than 70,000 people. But the impact of the ban would extend across the West Bank as well, where the organisation offers primary healthcare services and 47,000 children go to UNRWA schools. The move would also affect its work in Gaza. During Israel's war on the enclave, up to a million people at a time have sought refuge in UNRWA shelters. Pressure from the international community and pleas by UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini at the UN Security Council to stop the ban from being put into effect have failed so far. Israel insisted the ban would not be reversed and the US backed its “sovereign decision”, saying UNRWA is not the only provider of aid to Palestinians. Despite the legislation, UNRWA has stated it will continue to do its work for as long as it can, but fears are growing that the ban will have far-reaching consequences. In this episode of Beyond the Headlines, host Nada AlTaher speaks to Tamara Alrifai, UNRWA's director of external relations and communications, about the toll this could take on Palestinians in dire need of humanitarian assistance, and how the agency will be able to carry out its work going forward.

A dois dias para entrada em vigor de lei israelense que proíbe atuação da maior agência da ONU em Gaza, chefe da agência pede apoio ao Conselho de Segurança   a uma conclusão progressiva e ordenada do mandato; para Philippe Lazzarini, interrupção imediata dos serviços pode prejudicar cessar-fogo e solução política. 

Izrael je ponoči potrdil dogovor o prekinitvi ognja v Gazi, ki bo začel veljati jutri. V agenciji Združenih narodov za pomoč palestinskim beguncem so pozdravili sporazum in strani pozvali k njegovi uveljavitvi. Ob tem izražajo pripravljenost pomagati v mednarodnih prizadevanjih za zagotovitev pomoči razdejani enklavi. Kot je še dejal vodja agencije Philippe Lazzarini, so pripravljeni pomagati tudi pri vnovični vzpostavitvi izobraževanja v Gazi in zagotavljanju primarnega zdravstva. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Delodajalci le za uskladitev minimalne plače z inflacijo za 1,9 odstotka, sindikati za 3,5-odsotno zvišanje - Videti spregledano je slogan Chemnitza, ki poleg Goric nosi naziv evropske prestolnice kulture - Pred rokometaši druga tekma na svetovnem prvenstvu; nasprotniki prihajajo z Zelenortskih otokov

Comissário da agência fala de implicações de leis aprovadas no Parlamento de Israel e prestes a entrar em vigor; Philippe Lazzarini argumenta que serviços na área de conflito são essenciais para sucesso do cessar-fogo.

Izraelska vojska nadaljuje napade na Gazo. Danes je bilo tam ubitih več kot 60 ljudi, 12 med njimi je življenje izgubilo v napadu na humanitarno območje Al-Mawasi na jugu enklave. Vodja Agencije Združenih narodov za pomoč palestinskim beguncem Philippe Lazzarini je opozoril, da v Gazi ni več humanitarnega, kaj šele varnega območja. Po njegovih besedah bo vsak dan brez prekinitve ognja prinesel še več gorja.

V oddaji tudi o tem: - Črna gora žaluje za 12-timi žrtvami včerajšnjega strelskega pohoda. - Sodni sistem je v postopkih, kjer so udeleženi tudi otroci, še vedno zelo tog in otrokom neprijazen. - Splošna bolnišnica Izola v novo leto vstopa z zahtevnimi naložbenimi načrti.

UNRWA chief says Israel has broken all rules of war in Gaza The UN's Philippe Lazzarini has condemned Israel's invasion of Gaza, stating that "all rules of war have been broken." The 14-month Israel's Gaza war sees escalating civilian casualties, with schools and hospitals targeted, he said. Urging a long-overdue ceasefire, Lazzarini calls for immediate action to safeguard civilians. He warned that the "world must not become numb." Israel targets homes in southern Lebanon, violating ceasefire In a sharp escalation, the Israeli military has demolished homes in southern Lebanon, defying the November 27 ceasefire. With 287 reported violations, the toll stands at 31 dead and 37 injured, official data shows. Strikes hit Kfarkela in Nabatieh and Hanin in Bint Jbeil, fueling regional tensions, Lebanon's National News Agency (NNA) has reported. Putin threatens 'destruction' on Ukraine after Kazan drone attack Russian President Vladimir Putin has vowed "massive destruction" against Ukraine after a drone strike hit a high-rise in Kazan, over 1,000 kilometres from the frontier. The escalating aerial attacks deepen tensions in the nearly three-year conflict. While Ukraine remains silent on the attack, Putin warns retaliation will bring "regret" to those targeting Russia. Putin has previously threatened to target the centre of Kiev with a hypersonic ballistic missile in response to Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory. Myanmar conflict forces more Rohingya to flee to Bangladesh In the last two months, 60,000 Rohingya have fled Myanmar's conflict-hit Rakhine state to Bangladesh, despite tightened border measures, according to an official. Bangladesh, already hosting 1.2 million refugees, urges international collaboration to stem the crisis. Officials highlight corruption at border crossings and stress Myanmar's need to resolve internal issues through dialogue. Regional talks continue, with no immediate resolution in sight. Google faces antitrust action in Japan Japan's competition watchdog is poised to find Google guilty of antitrust violations, according to Nikkei Asia. The Japan Fair Trade Commission is expected to issue a cease and desist order, following investigations into Google's search services. It comes amid growing global scrutiny of Google's dominance, with similar actions taken in Europe and the US. The US Department of Justice recently argued that Google should divest its Chrome browser to break its search monopoly.

On Wednesday night the United Nations General Assembly demanded an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, and also condemned a new law in Israel that will ban the operations of the relief agency UNRWA. UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini is on a tour of capitals that support the agency's work, trying to get that ban reversed. He joins Christiane in London.   Also on today's show: Golden Globe-nominated director Payal Kapadia ("All We Imagine As Light"); Syrian-American Artist and Architect Mohamad Hafez  Learn more about your ad choices.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 52-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,767 on turnover of $5.8-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan closed lower Thursday as heavyweights across the board came under pressure to push down the broader market after a mixed performance of the U.S. markets overnight,. Market sentiment weakened amid growing fears that the U.S. Federal Reserve will slow down its pace in a rate-cut cycle following the return to the presidency of Donald Trump, who has threatened to raise tariffs when he takes office in January, which could boost inflation. NGO calls for universal affordable childcare, flexible parental leave The Childcare Policy Alliance is calling on the government to establish universal affordable childcare and more flexible parental leave systems… …to help boost Taiwan's low birth rates. The NGO argued that the existing childcare allowance is inadequate for long-term childcare expenses and often pressures women to leave the workforce, as it doesn't fully support the costs associated with (與 相關聯) quality childcare. It also emphasized that flexible leave policies encourage more men to participate in childcare, which could help counter traditional gender roles and promote a "dual income, dual childcare" model. The alliance critiqued the government' s current policies, including the rigid 30-day minimum parental leave block, which is too rigid for parents needing to take leave on an ad-hoc basis. UNRWA Chief: Agency Facing Darkest Hour The UN's aid agency in Gaza is facing its '"darkest hour", according to its top official. Philippe Lazzarini says the situation in the strip has become "dystopian", and urged member states to increase spending on UNRWA. Sally Patterson reports from New York, where the United Nations is headquartered. Philippines Transports Supplies to Disputed Shoal The Philippine navy has transported food and other supplies to a territorial ship outpost in a shoal in the South China Sea without any confrontation with Chinese forces guarding the area. The Philippine delivery of supplies and military personnel to the Second Thomas Shoal was the third such trip without any violent clash since July, when Chinese and Philippine diplomats signed a rare deal to halt a spike in violent confrontations (對抗). It's the first known agreement by China with any one rival claimant country in a specific shoal in the South China Sea, which Beijing claims almost in its entirety. The Philippines occupied the shoal by permanently beaching a navy ship in its shallows in 1999, prompting China, which also claims it, to surround the atoll with its coast guard and naval forces in what has been a continuing territorial standoff. Italy Colosseum to Host Gladiator Fights The ancient Roman Colosseum will be the venue of gladiator fights for the first time in two millennia under a $1.5 million sponsorship deal with Airbnb. Under the deal announced by Airbnb and the Colosseum on Wednesday, the sponsorship by the short-term rental giant will cover the renewal of an educational program inside the ancient Roman amphitheater (露天劇場) covering the history of the structure and gladiators. Eight of the platform's users and their plus-ones will be able to participate in faux gladiator fights after the Colosseum's closing time on May 7-8, taking the same underground route used by gladiators in ancient Rome to reach the arena. The “gladiators” will be chosen from the applicants by lottery. That was the I.C.R.T.

Comissário da Unrwa, Philippe Lazzarini, sublinha que entidade deve fazer parte de um rumo para a paz; representante diz que eventual encerramento de atuação poderá sacrificar uma geração e plantar semente de mais ódio.

Em pronunciamento feito em Nova Iorque, Philippe Lazzarini afirmou que a Agência de Assistência aos Refugiados Palestinos é vítima da guerra em Gaza; ele adicionou que as ações de Israel para banir a atuação da entidade são motivadas politicamente. 

Presidente do órgão da ONU, Philémon Yang, informou que comissário-geral da Agência de Assistência a Refugiados Palestinos, Philippe Lazzarini, participará de reunião informal para responder perguntas dos países-membros.

The Israeli parliament has passed a law banning the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, from operating in the country. Lawmakers accused UNRWA staff of involvement in the attacks of October the Seventh and diverting aid in Gaza. UNRWA's boss, Philippe Lazzarini said the measure would only deepen the suffering of the Palestinian people. A US State Department spokesman said Washington had made it clear to Israel that it was "deeply concerned".Also we have a BBC investigation into How fraudsters are cashing in on illegal migration in the UK.

Il toto Nobel per la pace è partito. Qualcuno che si atteggia da bene informato sussurra che l'agenzia delle Nazioni Unite per i rifugiati palestinesi (UNRWA), la Corte internazionale di giustizia e il segretario generale delle Nazioni Unite Antonio Guterres siano tra i favoriti per il premio Nobel per la pace 2024. Per la sua attività in favore delle popolazioni colpite dai conflitti buone chance di vittoria sono attribuite all'UNRWA e al suo alto commissario Philippe Lazzarini. Un premio all'Unrwa riaccenderebbe evidentemente gli animi di chi osteggia le accuse di Israele contro l'agenzia, le stesse che avevano bloccato i finanziamenti di molti paesi, poi ripristinati dopo i risultati di inchieste indipendenti. Un Nobel per l'Onu e al suo segretario Guterres aprirebbe la polemica sulla Corte internazionale di giustizia che ha condannato l'invasione su vasta scala dell'Ucraina da parte della Russia e ha chiesto a Israele di garantire che non venga commesso alcun genocidio a Gaza in un caso presentato dal Sudafrica, ancora in corso, che Israele ha ripetutamente respinto come infondato. Qualcuno vorrebbe il presidente ucraino Zelensky, altri spingono per un Nobel postumo al dissidente russo Alexei Navalny, morto in una colonia penale artica a febbraio. Tra i papabili ci sarebbero anche l'Unesco e il Consiglio d'Europa. Le guerre, i massacri, la vigliaccheria internazionale e i morti intanto continuano. Non c'è stata pace in questo 2024 che è l'anno dell'incitamento alla guerra. Anzi, per il Nobel della guerra verrebbero in mente facilmente alcuni nomi. Allora fate una bella cosa, non assegnatelo il Nobel per la pace. È accaduto altre 19 volte (durante la Prima guerra mondiale, nel primo dopoguerra, durante la Seconda guerra mondiale, negli anni della Guerra fredda e della Guerra del Vietnam). Fatelo ancora. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Se cumplió ayer un año de los ataques terroristas del 7 de octubre de 2023 en el sur de Israel, cuando miembros del grupo islamista palestino Hamás cruzaron la frontera desde la Franja de Gaza, asesinaron a 1.206 personas, torturaron y vejaron a decenas más y secuestraron a 251. De aquellos rehenes, hoy siguen cautivos en Gaza 97, 34 de los cuales habrían muerto, según el ejército israelí. En Israel, una multitud emocionada inició las ceremonias de conmemoración en Reim, donde aquella madrugada fueron ejecutados al menos 370 jóvenes que asistían al festival de música Nova. En un mensaje televisivo emitido este lunes, el primer ministro israelí, Benjamin Netanyahu, prometió a sus conciudadanos que se cumplirán los objetivos de la guerra contra Hamás en Gaza fijados por su gobierno, lo que definió como una “misión sagrada”. "En el momento de la prueba suprema, demostramos una vez más que somos el pueblo de la eternidad. Un pueblo que lucha por traer luz al mundo, un pueblo que se esfuerza por difundir el bien y erradicar el mal. En cada encuentro de mi esposa y yo con nuestros combatientes, con nuestros heridos, con las familias en duelo, escuchamos una y otra vez el mismo mensaje: la guerra no debe detenerse prematuramente. Mientras el enemigo amenace nuestra existencia y la paz de nuestro país, seguiremos luchando. Mientras nuestros secuestrados sigan en Gaza, seguiremos luchando. No renunciaremos a ninguno de ellos. Yo no me rendiré". En estos 12 meses Israel desplegó una respuesta militar con pocos precedentes: sobre Gaza cayeron 22 mil bombas solo en los primeros 30 días, después de lo cual siguió una invasión de infantería en el territorio palestino. Según datos del Ministerio de Salud de Hamás, que la ONU considera fiables, estas operaciones han dejado un saldo de 41 mil muertos, 40% de ellos menores de edad. Y de acuerdo con la ONU, 66% de los edificios gazatíes fueron destruidos, incluyendo 87% de las escuelas, cifras muy por encima de casos tristemente célebres del pasado reciente, como Mariúpol en Ucrania y Alepo en Siria. Philippe Lazzarini, jefe de la agencia de la ONU para los refugiados palestinos, definió a Gaza como “un cementerio”. Mientras tanto, con el correr de los meses fue creciendo el enfrentamiento con otro grupo islamista, Hezbolá, que, en solidaridad con Hamás, bombardeaba desde Líbano en dirección a la frontera norte de Israel. Finalmente, el 23 del mes pasado se desató en esa zona una guerra abierta, en la que Israel fue matando y acorralando a los mandos medios y altos de Hezbolá, hasta asesinar a Hasán Nasralá, el máximo líder del movimiento islamista. Una semana atrás, se sumó abiertamente al conflicto otro actor de peso en la región: Irán, enemigo acérrimo de Israel, que respalda a Hamás y Hezbolá, lanzó unos 200 misiles hacia Jerusalén y Tel Aviv. Aunque no hubo víctimas, el hecho marcó un nuevo agravamiento en la escalada. Ayer, el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Irán elogió en un comunicado el ataque de Hamás del 7 de octubre de 2023 como "un giro en la historia de la lucha legítima de la nación palestina contra la ocupación y la opresión del régimen sionista". Además, describió aquella operación como una liberación de "la ira histórica contenida del pueblo palestino contra ocho décadas de ocupación, asesinato y genocidio". En esa nota Irán también acusó a los aliados de Israel de estar detrás de aquellas acciones del estado hebreo. La Mesa Internacional con Gustavo Calvo y Leo Harari.

Children make up half of Gaza's entire population of over two million, but none have been able to attend school since the 7 October attacks triggered nearly a year of devastating war.Philippe Lazzarini, Commissioner-General of the UN Palestine refugee agency, UNRWA, told UN News during an interview in New York on Tuesday that the longer the fighting goes on, the greater the chance of losing an entire generation.For 75 years, UNRWA has provided free basic education to millions and the agency is determined to reopen classrooms as soon as possible.Mr. Lazzarini told Khaled Mohamed what impact the constant targeting of schools and civilian infrastructure was having on Gazans as daily airstrikes continue.

Stephen Sackur speaks to Philippe Lazzarini, head of UNRWA, the UN's refugee agency for Palestinians. This week, six UN relief agency staff were killed in an Israeli strike on a central Gaza school that had been turned into an emergency shelter for thousands. UNRWA's death count in Gaza since the beginning of the war is over 220. Is his agency's mission now impossible?

In an exclusive interview with ‘Mehdi Unfiltered,' the Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, speaks to Mehdi on the threats that face both Palestinians in Gaza and his own organization. “I don't know how much worse it can become, I have to say, we are losing and we are lacking words to describe the situation,” says Lazzarini. UNRWA is currently fighting a polio outbreak in Gaza, but a successful vaccination campaign there is nearly impossible given Israel's bombardment. “This is a communicable disease which doesn't know any border and could also spread in the entire region, including Israel,” Lazzarini tells Mehdi. In addition to disease, UNRWA faces repeated Israeli attempts at dismantling their entire organization. From accusations that staffers took part in the Oct. 7 attack, to allegations that Hamas builds tunnels under UNRWA schools.“I do not have the military expertise to look at what's underneath the entire Gaza Strip… All these allegations need to be investigated. First, we need to investigate the killing of the UN staff,” says Lazzarini. Watch the full conversation above to hear what the Commissioner-General also has to say about war crimes in Gaza.Also on the show: why can't U.S. news organizations get their coverage of Donald Trump right? Mehdi is joined by journalist and author Wajahat Ali as well as former chief speechwriter to President Jimmy Carter, James Fallows, to talk about it. The conversation includes Ali calling for “fact checkers to retire for this election cycle,” Fallows on the “failure of imagination” among liberal white journalists, and a dark joke about detention camps from one of the two that we'll leave for them to tell. Then there is Afghanistan, where the situation for women and minorities gets worse by the day, under Taliban rule, but which is being ignored by much of our mainstream media.“What we see today in Afghanistan is gender apartheid. Women have been erased from public life. Their basic rights have been taken away from them,” Ali Maisam Nazary, Head of Foreign Relations for the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan (NRF), tells Mehdi on this week's show.Watch the full interview to hear more on the status of women in Afghanistan. Mehdi also challenges Nazary on the fighting in the Panjshir Valley, the NRF's record in the last government, and the difficulties that lie ahead. If you're a paid subscriber, be sure to let us know what you think in the comments, and who you would like to see Mehdi talk to next!

The latest Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, or IPC, partnership said that around 495,000 people — around 22 percent of the Gaza population — are still facing "catastrophic levels of acute food insecurity". This is also known as IPC Phase 5: the worst hunger rating. *) Every day, 10 Gaza children lose one or both legs due to Israel's war — UN https://trtworld.com/middle-east/every-day-10-gaza-children-lose-one-or-both-legs-due-to-israels-war-un-18176961 Ten children per day are losing one or both of their legs in Israel's genocidal war in besieged Gaza, the head of the UN agency supporting Palestinian refugees said. UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini cited figures from the UN children's agency UNICEF and said amputations often take place in "horrible conditions", without anaesthesia. He said that figure "does not even include arms and hands,” of which there are many more cases. *) Australia awaits Assange's arrival after US guilty plea https://trtworld.com/australia/australia-awaits-assanges-arrival-after-us-guilty-plea-18176954 WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has walked free from a court on the US Pacific island territory of Saipan in a deal that allowed him to head straight home to Australia.

The same vote on Tuesday showed that US President Joe Biden scored better with his approach on preserving democracy. The poll shows that less than five months before the November election, the electorate is divided on the candidates' approach to issues that respondents view as the country's top problems.

O comissário geral da agência, Philippe Lazzarini, adicionou que “geração inteira” de crianças está correndo o risco de ser condenada à pobreza, ao ódio, ao ressentimento e a conflitos futuros.

This is a special preview of the Inside Geneva podcast, available wherever you get your podcasts.   Recently UNWRA, the UN's refugee agency for Palestinians, has been facing scrutiny of what exactly their role is in the current Israel-Hamas conflict. Many people around the world hadn't heard of UNRWA before this conflict - so what is it exactly, why was it founded, and does it need to continue? Journalist Imogen Foulkes takes a deep dive, talking to UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini, Israeli diplomat Nina Ben-Ami, Jan Egeland of the Norwegian Refugee Council, and Louis Charbonneau of Human Rights Watch. Inside Geneva is produced by Swissinfo,  a multilingual public service media based in Switzerland.

Show Notes and Transcript UNRWA is a term that I had not heard 6 months ago. Their work, methods and purpose has intrigued me ever since.  Karys Rhea understands this issue at its core and joins Hearts of Oak to give the other side of the story.  The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugee, known as UNRWA, was set up in 1948, just 3 years after the UN started.  Karys starts by setting out the story of how and why UNRWA started.  A fascinating part of this story is how refugee status of 'Palestinians' is defined. It seems as though this is used to create a Palestinian refugee myth that exists out of hatred for Israel.  Which country in the world has dozens of refugee camps in their own country? How much money is used and is the UNRWA corrupt or transparent?  Karys exposes this group like you have never heard before. Karys Rhea is a producer of "American Thought Leaders" and "Fallout" at The Epoch Times and a fellow with The Jewish Leadership Project. She also works with the Middle East Forum and Baste Records. She has appeared on Newsmax, OANN, Real America's Voice, NTD News, and a variety of podcasts, and her articles can be found in Commentary, NY Daily News, Newsweek, The Federalist, Washington Examiner, and more. She has a BA from NYU in broadcast journalism and an MA in counterterrorism and homeland security from Reichman University in Israel. A former life found her touring the world as a drummer and songwriter before becoming disillusioned with the political and cultural arrogance of the music industry. She continues to release music in her spare time, in addition to publishing absurdist flash fiction.  Connect with Rhea...

Karys, thank you so much for your time today. (Karys Rhea) Thank you so much for having me, Peter. Not at all. It was great to meet you there at Epoch Times whenever I came there with Dr. Malone. And of course, you're there, a producer of American Thought Leaders and Fallout at the Epoch Times, you're a fellow of the Jewish Leadership Project, and people have probably seen you, especially your US audience on Newsmax or OAN or Real America Voice and many other of those networks. And I know your background, I think your BA is in journalism and then you've got a master's in counterterrorism and security, which is not just fascinating itself, but there are wider things to discuss. And you've got a strange background, I think, which you said to me was the music industry. The music industry to doing media and politics that's quite a step. Yeah well I mean I have competing interests on the one hand I grew up in the Bay Area and it's very progressive and artistic if you will lots of subcultures so I was always very much into the arts and performance and writing music. And then I spent 18 years in Brooklyn, which has New York City and much of that in Brooklyn, which has an incredible independent music scene. So after college, I made the decision to put a more lucrative and a safer career on hold and pursue music. And that's what I did for about seven years. And then I sort of grew up and got sick of hustling. And like I said, I had other interests and I started to slowly make my way into the non-profit world, doing Israel advocacy and, and, monitoring, Islamic terrorism and Islamism. And I went to grad school and then I got tired of doing that. And I switched into, broadcast journalism because as you mentioned, that is where I had originally received a degree in. And so that seemed like an appropriate career shift. Well it certainly is and obviously people can find you there on Epoch Times and also that is your handle on the screen for people to follow you on twitter and all the links are in the description but Karys maybe we can start with this term and I know you've spoken about it quite a bit I've seen a number of interviews you've done and that is this little phrase, which is an acronym, but I thought it was a phrase, UNRWA. And I heard this phrase from two of my US friends. And sometimes you let something go past thinking it's going to come up in the conversation, it's going to work out what it is they're talking about. I was never sure. So I had to ask, UNRWA, what is it? Do you want to just let us know what that stands for? It's obviously a United Nation agency, what it stands for, and then why this is an organization which you personally have been interested in it following? Sure. So UNRWA stands for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. Many people do not know about it and did not know about it until October 7th, but there are actually many people throughout the world that have been raising the alarm bells on how corrupt and ineffective this UN agency is. It is one of the oldest and the costliest and largest agencies of the United Nations. It started in 1949 in order to help deal with the Arab Palestinian population that had been displaced as a result of the War of Independence, Israel's 1948 war when it was re-established after World War II. And it produced about 400 to 750,000 Arab Palestinian refugees. There's debate about that. And this UN agency was set up to to handle these refugees. One year later, another UN agency was set up called the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the UNHCR. That agency deals with all of the refugees in the entire world. Today, it serves about 20 million refugees in 130 countries. And its mandate, as it should be, is to resettle these refugees that it's dealing with, right? You never want to keep refugees in limbo, in a stateless environment where you're in a camp and you rely on social services and healthcare and education, right? If you have been displaced from a conflict, the goal is not to keep you in a camp. The goal should always be to repatriate you, get you situated, get you settled in a new country where you can eventually be given citizenship and you're in that country and your children can be given citizenship. Right? You're repatriated. Now, UNRWA has a completely different mandate. And this is why, this is precisely why the Palestinian refugee population is still an issue today. If not for UNRWA, there would likely be no Palestinian refugees. Because think about it. Let's go back in time. When the War of Independence happened in 1948. That was after World War II. And after World War II, you had tens of millions of refugees created, right? I think 40 million refugees. I mean, there were millions of ethnic Germans, right, that were displaced from Eastern European countries. And you also had around that time the partition of Pakistan and India, right? And there was, I think, millions of refugees created from that, Muslim and Hindu refugees. How many of those refugees still exist today? Zero. There's no ethnic German refugees, no Pakistani refugees created from that conflict, right? Why? Because UNHCR has resettled them. And so that number of refugees has decreased. It has gone down and eventually has gotten to zero. The Palestinian refugees are the only group in the world whose population has increased from, as we said, 400 to 750,000 originally in that war, ballooned to what UNRWA says is 5.9 million refugees. Now, if UNRWA only claims to serve refugees that were displaced in this 1948 war, as it says, how has this number ballooned? People don't think about that. People accept, the media, academics, our governments, everybody just accepts this number that UNRWA touts. There is 5.9 million Palestinian refugees and nobody thinks to themselves, well, how is that possible? You know, and the reason is, is because UNRWA uses a different definition for what constitutes a refugee and their mandate, unlike the UNHCR, is not to resettle refugees. Not one Palestinian refugee that UNRWA claims to serve has been resettled into a host country. Not only that, as I just mentioned, the definition of what constitutes a refugee is different, right? So, you know, I could even read you. I have the actual definitions right here if you'd like me to, but if not, I can just summarize. Here, let me just read it to you. So we have, oh, wait, actually, I don't think I have it pulled up here. Never mind. It doesn't really matter. The point is, is that the UNHCR, the refugee status that they afford to those displaced from conflicts, it directly relates to those people, those individual people that were displaced. That's it. It does not carry on to their offspring, right? And that refugee status ends once they are resettled and especially once they are given citizenship in a new country, right? But refugee status for UNRWA extends to offspring of refugees regardless of whether they have been resettled or not, okay? And regardless of if they've gotten citizenship in another country, they're still considered refugees. So for example, if you were displaced in the 1948 war, you ended up in Jordan, and now you're given citizenship as about 1 million refugees, Palestinians in Jordan have been. All of those Palestinians are still considered refugees according to UNRWA, even though they are now Jordanian citizens. Not only that, but their children are now Jordanian citizens. And their children's children, even though they were born as Jordanian citizens, they are still considered refugees. This is bonkers, right? And not only that, UNRWA actually extends this refugee status to even adopted children, right? So, and it's so weird. They extend it. It's not all offspring. It's offspring of male Palestinian refugees, not females. And then it's adopted children as well of male Palestinian refugees. It is bizarre. So it's phenomenal that you have that crazy that the UN set up an organization to deal with refugees, but only one particular group a year before they set up a general. But you're right, you set up such an organisation to deal with an issue. So there was a conflict, Israel had reclaimed the land, it was rightly due, but there was a conflict, therefore, in that region, and Israel taking on the land, retaking its borders. So I can understand it would make sense to set up an organisation to help those who may be displaced by a conflict, conflict by any conflict, but yet that needs to have an end goal. But you talked about this passing on generation to generation. It seems as though the UN and other agencies, other bodies, worldwide governments, want to have an issue there, a problem there, because that's how they continue to apply pressure on Israel. So it seems to be they want a thorn in Israel's side. Is that a fair enough assessment? Absolutely. UNRWA was created to perpetuate the refugee, well, not created, but very soon after it was created. Because actually, I think a year after it was created, the director general or somebody high up in UNRWA recommended resettling about 250,000 refugees. The Arab countries were up in arms about this. Absolutely not, right? Not only that, we're not going to take any of these people in, right? These Arab countries that presumably were so, you know, sympathetic to the Palestinian plight and were so outspoken about, you know, how much these Palestinians needed to be cared for and how, you know, big bad Israel had treated them, right? And yet, how many Palestinian refugees have these Arab countries taken in? Only Jordan. Jordan is the only Arab nation that has taken in any Palestinian refugees and given them citizenship. They are still heavily discriminated against in Lebanon and Syria. You never hear about that. You only hear about Palestinian Arabs in the context of what Israel is doing to them. You never hear about how they're treated in Lebanon, where they are banned from dozens of professions, right. Uh, and kept in horrible, uh, conditions. So yeah, the UNRWA is, has basically just been hijacked. They are no longer, they are not a humanitarian, uh, agency as Enoch Wilf, who wrote a book called the war of return, I believe. And they, she heavily goes into the origins of, of UNRWA. She says that UNRWA is a war agency. It is not a humanitarian agency and it is meant to keep the Palestinian Arabs as as pawns in this fight against Israel. Tell us, you talked about corruption, I've heard that with the two friends i've spoken to stateside and they also repeat what you said that this is utterly corrupt organization within the UN and you think wow a corrupt organization is a corrupt organization within the corrupt organization of the UN. That's saying a lot. But what is specifically, because again, from the outside looking in, its mandate can seem a very positive one to actually help a group. So tell me why it's, I mean, the finance that goes through, how is that not used correctly? Is it because they have close relationship with Hamas? Is it because the money goes elsewhere? I mean, tell us a little bit about that side. Right, so even apart from Israel, even apart from UNRWA's connections to Jihadist groups, Islamic terrorist groups, even apart from the hate education, the anti-Semitic and jihadist material that they promote in their schools, even apart from their facilities being used by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad to store weapons and launch rockets, apart from all of that, they have actually been engaged in scandal after scandal relating to nepotism, sex for money. The suppression of whistle-blowers, right? There was a huge scandal, I think, in 2019 where the director general was involved in this horrific sex for money scandal. And he ended up being fired along with, I think, half a dozen others. And if you look at what was going on and how the funds were misused for private jets and lavish business trips, it was just horrific. So that's apart from the, you know, irredeemable nature as an anti-Semitic and violent group, right? So even just aside from all of that, this group has many problems when it comes to corruption. But in terms of how its funds are used with relation to, you know, terrorism and perpetuating this war against Israel, there's many different components of this. So, for example, there's the curriculum component, right? UNRWA schools serve half a million Palestinian Arabs throughout Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem. I think they serve about 300,000 just in Gaza and the West Bank. And they have hundreds of schools. And they use the Palestinian authorities curriculum since 2017. And year after year after year, the textbooks are shown to be absolutely, horrifically rife with material promoting martyrdom, suicide bombing, other forms of violence, not just against Israelis, but against Jews anywhere, glorification of Hitler, teaching children in the context of math and science that there is no better position to aspire to than to be a martyr and to die in service of Allah. There is no better goal than to be fighting against Jews everywhere and to take up arms against Jews. I mean, the examples of this have just been documented year after year after year by organizations like UN Watch and Impact SE, they monitor these textbooks, and you'll see just the horrific examples. Not only that, UNRWA's teachers, their social media accounts have been investigated. And these teachers, hundreds of them have been found to glorify Hamas, to glorify the October 7th massacres. They've been found to just be outspoken about slaughtering Jews wherever you see them, slaughtering Zionists, slaughtering Israelis. They use these terms Jews, Zionists, Israelis interchangeably in Arabic, right? Like you're not going to, you know, when I say they're talking about slaughtering Jews... I'm not using Jews interchangeably with Israelis or Zionists. They are. They will use the word Yahud. They will use the word Jew, right? And in other times, they will use the word Israeli. In other times, they will use the word Zionist. So they're not just talking about Israelis here, right? Even if they are, that would be horrific. You don't want to be promoting violence against anybody. But these educational standards are in direct violation of UNESCO's provisions, which demand that all UN educational materials promote peace-making and tolerance. And, you know, you're not allowed to be othering any sort of group, any sort of religious or national or minority group. And yet UNRWA does nothing to reform their curriculum. As far as I know, not one teacher has been fired. There was a few, there was about six that were placed on administrative leave after a big report came out a few years ago. That's the most that I have heard, even though year after year after UN watch and it takes their reports to the UN, takes it to, you know, to Gutierrez and to, Philippe Lazzarini, the director of UNRWA and says, here, this is what we found. You need to to do something about this, nothing gets done. So that's just one element. That's just the education. Then we could go into, you know, their… So can I pick up? So how, I mean, people will be surprised to think the UN are actually running schools in any country. It's one thing to actually give money or help the program, but I didn't know it was a United Nations rule to actually run whole education establishments in other countries. Yeah. So UNRWA, well, because UNRWA's mandate, again, it's not to resettle refugees, it's to provide relief for refugees. So UNRWA, especially in a place like Gaza, has become the de facto government of Gaza. They provide education, they provide healthcare, they provide loans, they provide social services, right? And there was a quote that came out after October 7th from a Hamas leader who said. It's the U.N.'s job to deal with the refugees, the millions of refugees. It's our job to build the tunnels. So essentially what UNRWA does is it allows Hamas and other terrorist groups to not take on the responsibility of governing their own population and building a state. UNRWA allows Palestinian leadership, even the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, to just focus on their war against Israel and not actually do the things that they would need to do to create a viable, functioning Palestinian state. That then they could actually have a chance of, you know, they could then actually have a chance of that state being independent and universally recognized. Tell us, there's one thing which came out, maybe the first time people did come across this term was earlier this year, or could be the end of last year, which was when a number of countries said they would cut funding or stop funding for UNRWA. Tell us about that because that seemed to be a possible wake-up call, although I think most countries have now rolled back and said, no, they'll keep giving. But there was, well, more than three months ago or whatever, a number of countries did say they had concerns. Right. It's tough to, it's hard to even really follow what's going on because, you know, one country will say we're pausing funds, right? And then a week later, you'll find out that they just released, you know, tens of millions to UNRWA and they'll say, oh, well, that was just leftover from like a previous contract or something. And now going forward, we're not, and then, and every few years, the European Union will pause funds because of a report that comes out discussing exactly the things we've been talking about here. And then they'll resume funding. You know, I mean, Trump completely pulled out funding of, he stopped all funding of UNRWA. We were giving, the US was giving about 300 million a year to UNRWA, which is about two thirds of its budget. They have have over a billion dollars annually from all of the countries. And just as an aside, the Gulf countries make up only about 7% of that budget. So the burden falls on the US and the EU and Germany and the UK. The UK gives about 40 million a year. And so we are funding UNRWA. And Trump pulled out this funding. He withdrew all of it in 2018 because he said it was the organization was irredeemably flawed. And unless they completely reformed, there was no reason to be giving money to an entity that was perpetuating a conflict rather than helping to solve it. Biden reversed that. Biden gets an office, you know, in 2021, he resumes funding. I don't think it's, I don't think it's back to 300 million a year. I think it's back to 150 million a year. You know, and then recently, like you said, the Biden administration and some other countries said, we're going to pause funding. You know, it might be paused for a few months here or there, but unless donor countries are prepared to permanently end funding, then I don't see any of these. I see these more as kind of virtue signalling moves rather than any profound interest in helping solve this problem. And I think I read that there were something like 60 refugee camps, I guess, run by UNRWA, supported by UNRWA. Obviously, you've got Lebanon, then Syria, then down to Jordan. And then half of them are, oh, they're in the West Bank and in Gaza. So half of the refugee camps are in areas where they are free to live. How do you have a refugee camp in your own country? I'm confused. Please explain that to me. I'm so glad you brought that up. There's no way to explain this. I mean, this is absolutely absurd. And it's such a tragedy that nobody has this thought that you just had, that people don't recognize, that people don't think to themselves, wait a second, why are there any refugee camps in Gaza and the West Bank? These are areas that would be part of a future Palestinian state. These areas are Palestine, right? And the West Bank areas, Area A and parts of Area B in the West Bank have complete autonomy. I mean, Israel has no jurisdiction over Area A in the West Bank, and Israel has no jurisdiction over all of Gaza, right? Israel pulled out of Gaza in 2005. There's people who say it's occupied. They don't know what they're talking about. Who occupied? There's no troops there. There's no Jews there. There's no Israelis there. How can it be occupied, right? People are now saying, oh, well, they still control the borders. Well, okay, we can talk about that, but that's not occupation. That would be correctly referred to as a blockade, right? But not an occupation. So, I mean, you know, so if Gaza is completely independent, has their own government, they're not taxed by Israel, right? Why are there still Palestinians in refugee camps? This makes no sense. And again, it's because UNRWA keeps them there, stateless, in limbo, right? And as an aside, let me just say that many of these camps, quote unquote, are not really camps at all. A few of them are, okay? There are some camps that, and you see pictures of them and they're, they're not in, they're not really in great conditions. But usually when you think of refugee camps, you think of tents, squatters. Many of what UNRWA considers refugee camps are actually four or five story concrete buildings that have electricity, running water, kitchens, satellite TV, internet. Okay. And Palestinians are living in these, in these buildings and they're still considered camps, but regardless. So, so, you know. Going back to the definition of a refugee, right, the UNHCR, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, which deals with all the other refugees in the world, their definition clearly states that to be considered a refugee, you cannot be in the country that you supposedly were displaced from. You have to be outside of the region, right? But these millions of Palestinians that are living in the West Bank and Gaza, that is their home. It's not like they would leave if they got a Palestinian state. So they should not be considered refugees to begin with. And yet they are. Wow. And you've got, I think it was a beautiful interview clip I saw of Douglas Murray talking about, of course, the interviewer telling him how Israel is occupying Gaza and he was trying to work out what do you mean by occupation and the journalist then wanted to quickly move on but the other point was the Gaza Strip does border another country and that is Egypt. I don't see any refugee camps in Egypt, obviously the Egyptian border and Gaza is fairly closed I mean there has been a lot of Israel have welcomed many, many of individuals living in Gaza to work in Israel. And that's been back and forward. And by doing that, Israel shows itself to be a good neighbour, as long as you don't try and kill us. That's the prerequisite, which we all have. But it seems Egypt, that border doesn't seem to be very open for work. And yet no one criticizes Egypt for having that blocked border. Yep, which just goes to show the double standard when it comes to Israel. The sole Jewish state in the world is held to a different standard than any other country. Not only is the border between Egypt and Gaza closed, but since October 7th, Egypt has reinforced this border with tanks, right? Right. I mean, the block. I mean, they have been adamant about not accepting a single Palestinian from Gaza after October 7th. Now, now think about that. In any war, Israel is at war, right? There is a full fledged war happening in Gaza. In any other war the civilian population is allowed to leave. There are refugees that are produced. This war has produced virtually no refugees. Why? It's because the Biden administration is not letting people leave. Why? Because we don't want any Palestinians displaced from this war. Oh, OK. So you just want to keep them in Gaza, right, at risk of being killed or at risk of, whether it's from Hamas or from Israel, right, at risk of starvation, at risk of losing their homes, right? You just want to keep them trapped in this war-torn region? That is cruel and inhumane. Biden gives, the U.S. provides Egypt with, I want to say, is it one and a half million? It may even be more than that. Egypt is the second largest recipient after Israel of U.S. aid. Biden could so easily pressure Egypt to open the border and say, yo, you've got to let some of these Gazans in. You're not in a very good position right now, okay? Not a word from Biden, not one word. And it's because this is all about images, the images that have to be portrayed, right? It's all about pressure on Israel. Well, if Biden really cared about the Palestinians' casualties, about the growing Palestinian casualties, then you would think that the first thing that he would do is try to get the border with Egypt opened so that Palestinians could actually leave. Biden doesn't care at all about the Palestinians, neither does Egypt, neither does UNRWA, neither does any other country, not in the Middle East, not in the West. Since, I mean, 2005 was the last time Israel were in Gaza, and then they pulled out and obviously didn't do the job of finishing off Hamas and removing that external threat they face. But since 2005 to last year, 7th of October, when the atrocity happened. Was there no, you've got a better understanding because you're aware of this space, but surely that was the time for such organizations as UNRWA, for the world community. For the EU, for the US to have conversations about what actually could happen now, supposedly, what could be the narrative, the people are now free of Israeli occupation so they can get on with actually building their country. That doesn't seem to have happened and I'm wondering how, because in one way on one side I feel sorry for those, I even hesitate to call them Palestinians because I do have a massive issue with that, but we're talking to Robert Spencer about that next week, the Palestinian delusion, but that's a whole other issue but you kind of feel sorry for the people in one way but at the same time, hey you have got a government and if you don't like the government you have to overthrow it, that's what happened under communism all across eastern Europe, that supposedly was what the Arab spring was about, overthrowing government or leadership that you don't want and bringing a new one and yet those who Palestinians living in Gaza they seem to keep this government therefore kind of that does make you responsible for the the crimes the government does upon you and the crimes that the government may do on other countries and bring it on you so I've kind of come to a position where I look at the Palestinian people differently because I think, well. You've kind of brought some of the misery upon yourself, if that's not being too cold and callous. I don't mean that, but we're all responsible for what happens in our own countries. There's a lot to unpack there. I think to a certain extent, you're right. It's hard to really know how many Gazans or even Palestinian Arabs in the West Bank support Hamas. There's been a lot of polls on this. Some people say these polls are not to be trusted. If you call up a Gazan and say, do you support Hamas? Obviously they're going to say yes. But what we do know is that they do enjoy some measurable, of some measure of of popular support. There have been some protests over the years against Hamas, that Hamas has heavily cracked down on. And I salute those Palestinian Arabs. They did that with great risk, you know, but it's nothing like Iran where you know, where you see since 2009 year after year, people rising up. The mass is really rising up and protesting against their government. It's nothing like that. And even these Palestinian Arabs in Gaza who are unhappy with Hamas, I think that not a lot of people understand that just because Palestinian Arabs support Hamas, I mean, don't support Hamas, doesn't mean they like Jews. So there can be Palestinian Arabs who are very upset with Hamas because Hamas keeps them in these horrific economic conditions. Now, actually, if you look at pictures of Gaza, they're very different than what the general media narrative is. The general media narrative is that this is a region that is the most densely populated region on earth. False. That is just the whole thing is steeped in poverty and shacks everywhere. False. there is such an incredible degree of luxury alongside poverty in Gaza because Hamas has created an incredible gap between the poor and the super rich. So there are actually, there's a whole class of Gazans that really live a life of luxury. And it really goes against this narrative of Gaza being some, you know, open air prison or what have you. But I digress. In terms of Palestinian support for Hamas, it's very, very disturbing to have seen the level of complicity in October 7th among ordinary Gazans, right? We know, like you said, there was about 20,000 Gazans that came to work in southern Israel virtually every single day, before October 7th, so much for it being a prison and blockaded, right? You have 20,000 people leaving, coming to work every day in Israel. And they were working in these kibbutzim. And these kibbutzim that were on October 7th were largely, the residents were largely left-wing peaceniks, right? They really reached out. They sent an olive branch over to Gaza. They wanted Gazans to come in and work. They thought that, you know, getting, because they would get paid a lot more in Israel, and then they'd be able to have more economic success in Gaza that would help the region grow and flourish. Well, what we have found after October 7th is that many of these workers provided, they were complicit. They provided maps to Hamas of where to attack. Not only that, we saw troves of Palestinian civilians. Barefoot and on horseback come through, break through the border on October 7th and actually carry out some of these attacks themselves, whether it was murder, whether it was taking them hostage, whether it was just coming and looting. So these Israeli residents of these kibbutzim, after October 7th, a lot of them, you've heard them discuss how they have completely changed their views. They thought that it was really just Hamas is the government and the people are different from their government, much like in Iran, where the regime is not supported by the masses and enjoys minority support among the population. And that's what people thought about Gaza. And now that has just largely been questioned. And we see that there is a level of support that maybe people weren't really prepared to admit before. And polls have shown that if there were to be an election that was held in the West Bank, I mean, one of the reasons why, you know, Mahmoud Abbas is a dictator, he hasn't held elections. He's the president of the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, and he hasn't had elections in, what is it, 15 years now since he was elected? And one of the reasons, even though it was supposed to be a four-year term, and one of the reasons is because poll after poll shows that Hamas would win in the West Bank. So, yeah, I mean, I think that, look, it's not surprising. When you have half a million Palestinians that are indoctrinated in their schools, in their mosques, on state TV, right, in higher education, when they are indoctrinated to believe that they are perpetual victims, that Jews are evil, that they are irredeemably impure, filthy sons of apes and pigs. When you are indoctrinated to believe that Hitler was righteous, when you are indoctrinated, when the protocols of the elders of Zion and Mein Kampf are still in display cases in bookshops throughout this region. Then why wouldn't you support Hamas? I mean, these kids don't stand a chance and kids have been interviewed. There have been videos that show kids that are in UNRWA schools being interviewed and they say things like, we are taught to believe that the Jews are bad, right? I mean, it's black and white. There's no grey area here. It's very clear that there is systemic anti-Semitism, that it really has to do with Jews, not so much Israel, that this is a holy religious war, and that the issue is fundamentally not about two states, but about the Palestinian leadership's refusal to accept a non-Muslim sovereign in the region. That is what what it comes down to. Just finishing off it's obviously if any of us were overseeing the UN the first requirement for funding going in would be have a government that actually you can work with and if you have someone like Hamas you can can't give a penny, obviously there'll be massive demands for huge increases of money to go in, probably like we've seen in the crazy amount amount spent in Ukraine, I could imagine demands for that money now to be switched over to Gaza. But of course, with those refugee camps outside. If I was Nenyao, personally, I would just say, well, we're going to get buses. We're going to bring you all to your other refugee camps in Jordan, in Syria, in Lebanon. And actually, we'll turn Gaza into a nice area that actually may be a national park or something. And therefore, the people still get to live in the refugee camp in an area. But you kind of think, well, there has to be a way forward. How do you see? Because this war will come to an end. Either by the time Israel achieve its objective of destroying Hamas or by the time the world's PR machine forces Israel to stop. It'll be one or the other. And at that point, there'll have to be a conversation. What do you do with this problem that we have next door? And I don't know how you see, not that you have a crystal ball, but I don't know how you kind of see that conversation going and whether it's going to end up in a better situation than where we currently are. Right. What you're talking about is the day after, right? This is a term that a lot of people have used when talking about the Gaza war, which in my opinion is a little premature. We don't usually talk about the day after a war when we're in the middle of a war, but people seem to be obsessed with this idea that Israel is going to reoccupy Gaza and then everybody's going to be up in arms about this. But let's be clear about one thing. This is not Ukraine. This is no stalemate. OK. And if not for the Biden administration, this war would have been over weeks ago. OK. Israel has won. They've done a tremendous job. They've been incredibly successful at achieving, largely achieving their goals. Right. though they haven't retained the hostages. But Hamas is, I think, two-thirds of their military apparatus is just completely reduced to nothing. And Israel has one last stronghold, basically major stronghold, Rafah, right? And this is where a lot of the Palestinian Arabs, the Gazans, have been moved, right? And so if Israel can take out Rafah, and this is also where they believe the hostages are, where Yaha Simwar is, the head of Hamas, the war will pretty much be over. And then the process of what I call de-Hamasification, just like the de-Nazification of Germany after World War II, then needs to commence. But Biden has put a red light on Israel and is refusing to let Israel to take out Rafah, right? He doesn't want more casualties. So Biden is, with pressure from other countries, but mainly the Biden administration is prolonging this war and not letting it be won, which it could be won very swiftly. And also, let's just let's just be clear when I say Israel has been largely successful in their goals. I'm even taking into account the large number of Palestinian refugees, because even though people are going on about the fact that there have been tens of thousands of, sorry, Palestinian casualties. Did I say refugees? But people are going on about how there's been 30,000 Palestinian casualties. And that's outrageous. But actually, if you look at the casualty count in any comparable conflict in the history of modern urban warfare, the combatant to civilian ratio is unheard of. The amount of restraint and precision that Israel has exercised cannot be said of any other army in the history of warfare, okay? If you average out the general civilian to combatant ratio, it's usually about nine to one when you're dealing with modern urban warfare, meaning for every one combatant or enemy soldier, terrorist that you kill, nine civilians die. This is how it's been in past conflicts, taking out ISIS or whatever in modern warfare. Israel has managed to achieve, especially in this war, a two to one or even in some cases a one to one ratio. Because what that 30,000 casualty number doesn't tell you is that roughly half of them are Hamas fighters, right? But people, but the media loves to rely on the Palestinian health ministry, the Gaza health ministry for these numbers as if it's not completely 100% in arm of Hamas, right? Right. Like it's so insane. Like would we trust like Al Qaeda's numbers? Right. Or like ISIS's numbers. And yet everybody just accepts Hamas's numbers, even though this 30,000, this number of 30,000 does not mention any Hamas fighters. Not once have they included Hamas fighters in this number. They just say that the majority are women and children, but there have been incredible analyses done of this number that have shown how bogus and how problematic it is, even from just a statistical standpoint. But yeah, so I mean, Israel's done a tremendous job of minimizing casualties. But in terms of the day after, there really can only be one answer to this, and that is is that for some period of time, Israel needs to maintain control, security control of this region, right? After World War II, after Germany, after Nazi Germany was defeated, we did not just pull out and just like, okay, you're left to your own devices. No, there was a denazification process to reform the entire society so that the civilian population could be raised on tolerance and peace. And that is what needs to happen here. That cannot be done by the United Nations. We've already seen how corrupt UNWRA is. But even just other UN agencies cannot be, despite what everybody is saying, the UN is not equipped to be in control in Gaza. If you look at the history of UN peacekeeping missions, especially in that region, every single one has been an abysmal failure in Lebanon, in Syria, in Egypt. It's just, I mean, Eugene Kontorovich, Professor Eugene Kontorovich has documented this extensively and provided massive evidence for why this is just a recipe for disaster and for Hamas regrouping and taking power, if not, another organization that's equally as religiously, extreme and violent. So it can't be the UN. It can't be the Palestinian Authority because the Palestinian Authority is virtually the same as Hamas. The only difference is that because Israel has a presence in parts of the West Bank, the Palestinian Authority isn't able to carry out October 7th, you know, October 7th like attack, even though they have said that they would want to, even though members of Fatah and the Palestinian Authority have have praised the attacks. Members of Fatah actually participated in the attack and they have been very supportive. So, you know, and we had seen that when in 2005, when Israel pulled out and they thought that the PLO, which was the precursor to the Palestinian Authority, was going to be in charge there. Well, they didn't do a very good job because Hamas came, Hamas was elected and then they purged the strip of the, of their their Fatah rivals, and the same would happen. The PA is just, it's just an incompetent apparatus to keep that region secure. So unfortunately, although Israel doesn't want to be in control of over a million Gazans, Israel needs to maintain a presence there for security purposes and really transform that region so that something like October 7th can never happen again. Well, I'm still up for a national park there, but that's a different discussion. Karys, thank you so much for coming on. Fascinating, that whole understanding of UNRWA, of that refugee situation, which is probably an eye-opener to many of our viewers and fits perfectly into the current situation that we find in Israel. So thank you so much for your time today. Thank you so much for having me. It's been great.

*) UN agency for Palestinians barred from North Gaza aid deliveries The United Nations Agency for Palestinian Refugees says that Israel had definitively barred it from making aid deliveries in northern Gaza, where the threat of famine is highest. The head of the agency Philippe Lazzarini said on X that “despite the tragedy unfolding under our watch, the Israeli Authorities informed the UN that they will no longer approve any UNRWA food convoys to the north.” He called the decision “outrageous,” saying the decision makes it intentional to obstruct lifesaving assistance during a “man-made famine.” *) Israeli war to only end with Jews settling in northern Gaza: Knesset member The head of the Knesset's National Security Committee Zvika Fogel has said “the Israeli war on Gaza will end with Jews settling in northern Gaza,” while speaking to Israeli public broadcaster KAN. He added that “Israel must end the war when Jews settle in the entire northern Gaza Strip.” Fogel called for encouraging the “voluntary migration” of Palestinians from Gaza saying, whoever wants to “voluntarily migrate” will receive a “grant” from him. *) Four suspects remanded in custody over Moscow concert attack Four men accused of involvement in the massacre at a Moscow concert hall that killed 137 people have been remanded in custody, as Russia observed a national day of mourning following the attack claimed by the Daesh terror group. President Vladimir Putin has vowed to punish those behind the “barbaric terrorist attack,” and said the four gunmen had been arrested while trying to flee to Ukraine. Kiev has strongly denied any connection to the attack. All four suspects have been charged with terrorism, according to Moscow's Basmanny district court, and face life imprisonment. *) Senegal anti-establishment candidate leads in presidential poll Senegal's anti-establishment candidate Bassirou Diomaye Faye appeared to be closing in on a first-round victory in a presidential poll. Opposition figure Faye had promised voters “a profound change” and a presidential programme of left-wing pan-Africanism. Faye was well ahead of former ruling coalition Prime Minister Amadou Ba, according to preliminary results from individual polling stations published by local media and on social networks. *) Pro-Palestine protesters stage event at New York Metropolitan Art Museum Protesters covered the steps of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art with a large patchwork blanket displaying messages of solidarity with Palestine to draw attention to Israel's war on Gaza. Many demonstrators gathered on the steps of the museum, also known as The Met as they chanted slogans such as “Free Palestine” and “How many children did Israel kill today?” They also distributed brochures that highlighted the museum's silence over Israel's “genocide” of Palestinians and its support for its war in Gaza, advocating for a world where justice prevails.

Unrwa head Philippe Lazzarini said on social media “This is outrageous and makes it intentional to obstruct life-saving assistance during a man-made famine. These restrictions must be lifted,” For reaction to this Unrwa spokeswoman, Juliette Touma.

Philippe Lazzarini, Commissioner-General, UNRWA, has the latest on the humanitarian situation in Gaza, as negotiators push for a ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas.

V Gazi je vse več otrok na robu preživetja zaradi lakote, opozarja Svetovna zdravstvena organizacija. Okoliščin lakote, kakršne spremljamo tam, do zdaj v svetu ni bilo, poudarja glavni komisar agencije Združenih narodov za pomoč palestinskim beguncem Philippe Lazzarini. Lakota se največkrat pojavi postopno, kot posledica različnih dejavnikov, Gazo pa je zajela v le štirih mesecih. In kot so Združeni narodi opozorili že večkrat, je krivec tokrat izključno človek. Drugi poudarki oddaje: - Vojna se nadaljuje tudi v Ukrajini; tako Kijev kot Moskva sta zaradi napadov evakuirala prebivalce z obmejnih regij. Zahod vse težje organizira dobavo orožja in streliva za Ukrajino, a v Ramsteinu je bilo kljub temu slišati zaveze o trdni podpori proti ruski agresiji. - Zaposleni na večini upravnih enot danes znova stavkajo. Med zahtevami so v ospredju višje plače in načrt zaposlovanja. Če jim vlada ne bo prišla naproti, čez teden dni sledi nov stavkovni dan. - Podlaga za referendumsko odločanje o izgradnji drugega bloka krške nuklearke bo resolucija o dolgoročni miroljubni rabi jedrske energije. Dokument bi že morala obravnavati vlada, a usklajevanja še niso končana. Med pomisleki je tudi cena.

Vodja agencije Združenih narodov za palestinske begunce Philippe Lazzarini je danes opozoril, da agenciji grozi propad. Finančno jo je izčrpala blokada sredstev številnih držav po izraelskih obtožbah, da so njeni zaposleni sodelovali pri napadu Hamasa na Izrael sedmega oktobra.

Agenciji Združenih narodov za palestinske begunce grozi propad, je danes dejal njen vodja Philippe Lazzarini. Pri tem je opozoril na politične posledice, če bi se to zgodilo. Cilj je Palestincem odvzeti status beguncev, s tem pa doseči, da njihova pravica do vrnitve ne bo več politično vprašanje mirovnih pogajanj, je dejal Lazzarini. Medtem na Cipru čaka ladja z 200 tonami pomoči za Gazo, na pot naj bi se odpravila še ta konec tedna.

*) Israel killed 13,430 Palestinian children since October 7 — Gaza Israeli air strikes and ground invasion have killed 13,430 children since the start of Tel Aviv's carnage in the besieged Palestinian enclave, Gaza's Media Office said. It added that 8,900 women were killed over 150 days, and 7,000 people, 70 percent of whom are women and children, are still under the rubble or missing. The media office said that 364 health personnel and 132 journalists also were killed during the period. *) Dismantling UNRWA would sacrifice 'generation of children' The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, is calling out threats to shut down the organisation. Philippe Lazzarini said cutting UNRWA loose would leave a generation of Palestinian children in the lurch, breeding anger and violence. He told the UN General Assembly that stopping UNRWA's work is a bad idea because it would hurt millions who depend on their help, especially at a time when things are already tough. UNRWA is facing funding freezes and pressure from Israel to close up. *) Thousands flee as attack blamed on M23 rebels claims 15 lives in DRC's east The M23 militia fighters have launched sweeping attacks in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, killing at least 15 people and leading thousands to flee, witnesses and government officials said. Testimony from locals, health workers and government officials on Monday pointed to attacks in the Rutshuru region of the eastern province of North Kivu. Access to the North Kivu capital Goma has been virtually severed. *) US top court reverses Colorado move to disqualify Trump from state ballot The US Supreme Court has handed Donald Trump a major victory as he campaigns to regain the presidency, barring states from disqualifying candidates for federal office under a constitutional provision involving insurrection and reversing a judicial decision that had excluded him from Colorado's ballot. The justices on Monday unanimously reversed a December 19 decision by Colorado's top court to kick Trump off the state's Republican primary ballot on Tuesday after finding that the US Constitution's 14th Amendment disqualified him from again holding public office. The Colorado court had found that Trump took part in an insurrection for inciting and supporting the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol by his supporters. *) EU hits Apple with record $2B antitrust fine in Spotify case Brussels has fined Apple $2B for thwarting competition from music streaming rivals via restrictions on its App Store, the iPhone maker's first-ever penalty for breaching EU rules. A huge lump sum inflated a basic penalty of $43M included as a deterrent - a first for the European Union's antitrust authorities on Monday. The European Commission charged Apple last year with preventing Swedish streaming service Spotify and others from informing users of payment options outside its App Store, following a 2019 complaint by Spotify.

Israel has accused the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) of being involved in the October 7th attacks. “October 7th was a gamechanger. Because the involvement, direct involvement, of those 13 UNRWA employees in the October 7th attacks on Israel changed everything,” said Nina Ben-Ami, Head of Bureau, International Organizations and UN Division, Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Inside Geneva looks at what's at stake.  UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini says: “Today the needs are absolutely staggering in the Gaza Strip."UNRWA has fired the employees under suspicion, but its major donors have cut funding, even before the formal UN investigation into Israel's allegations is completed. UNRWA has 13,000 staff in Gaza, providing schools and clinics.  “Even if the allegations are true, that's no justification for cutting off funding for the most important aid and relief agency in the Gaza Strip,” says Louis Charbonneau, UN Director at Human Rights Watch. Can other aid agencies step up if UNRWA has to stop? Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee Council: “All of the non-governmental organisations, all of the Red Cross, Red Crescent organisations, all of the UN agencies combined, we're not even half of what UNRWA is for Gazan society.” Where does this leave the 1.5 million Gazans now crammed into Rafah? Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee Council, explains that “Israel is thinking of going in with a bloody ground offensive. We would hold the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and all of these other countries providing the arms to this…we will hold them accountable for what is going to happen in Rafah.”“UNRWA remains the only lifeline in a region full of despair. A region which now deserves that we collectively look at promoting a proper genuine peaceful political solution,” concludes Lazzarini.  Join host Imogen Foulkes on our Inside Geneva podcast to learn more about the allegations and possible outcomes for UNRWA.   Get in touch!

One of the key groups responsible for providing humanitarian assistance in Gaza is the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), whose leader is sounding the alarm about what he calls a “man-made disaster.” But UNRWA itself has come under intense criticism recently, after the Israeli government alleged that 12 of its staff in Gaza were involved in the October 7th attacks on Israel. As a result, over a dozen countries suspended funding, including the United States, its largest donor.

Depuis fin janvier, l'Office de secours et de travaux des Nations unies pour les réfugiés de Palestine au Proche-Orient (UNRWA), est dans la tourmente. Son commissaire général, Philippe Lazzarini, a annoncé que plusieurs salariés de l'agence étaient accusés d'avoir été impliqués dans les attaques perpétrées par le Hamas, le 7 octobre 2023 en Israël.Dans la foulée, plusieurs donateurs de l'UNRWA – dont le principal, les Etats-Unis – ont indiqué suspendre leurs financements. Au point de mettre en péril les opérations de cette agence, dont le budget repose à 90 % sur des contributions internationales volontaires de la part d'Etats ou d'organisations multilatérales, alors que la bande de Gaza, pilonnée par l'armée israélienne, fait face à un désastre humanitaire sans précédent.Dans cet épisode du podcast « L'Heure du Monde », Laure Stephan, correspondante du Monde au Liban, l'un des principaux pays d'accueil des réfugiés palestiniens, nous explique les enjeux et les conséquences potentielles de la crise à l'UNRWA.Un épisode d'Adélaïde Tenaglia.

Ein Standpunkt von Jochen Mitschka.Erwartungsgemäß war das Urteil des Weltgerichtes ein politisches. Es hatte nicht gewagt, das Wort Waffenstillstand zu verwenden, aber es war ansonsten ein eindeutiges vorläufiges Urteil gegen das noch so starke Imperium der westlichen Kolonialstaaten und die USA. Craig Murray erklärt, warum das Votum des Gerichtes für Israel vernichtend ist. Und gerade als ob der Westen zeigen wollte, wie unwichtig das Urteil sei, stoppt er die humanitären Hilfen über die UNO, weil angeblich 12 von tausenden Mitarbeitern mit der Hamas kooperiert hatten, oder mehr mit Hamas in Kontakt waren, was angesichts der Verwaltung von Gaza durch die Hamas unvermeidbar ist. Selbst wenn in ein oder zwei Jahren Israel wegen Völkermord verurteilt wird, ist es irrelevant für die bis dahin geschaffenen Fakten, also Tote, Verstümmelte, Traumatisierte, zerstörte Wohnungen und Besiedlung durch israelische Siedler. Und so wird das Gericht keinerlei Einfluss auf die Verbrechen haben. Diese Art der Politik ist die Fortsetzung von Aktionen, Handlungen, und Erschaffung von medialen Realitäten, die lange vorher, auch schon vor und während 1948 zu beobachten waren. Um das zu verdeutlichen will ich die Analyse eines Historikers zur Nakba, also der ersten großen Vertreibung von Palästinensern durch Israel, heranziehen. Eine Beschreibung, die diametral den Geschichten entgegenstehen, welche Vertreter aller politischen Parteien am 17. Mai 2019 im Bundestag verkündeten. Beginnen wir aber mit einer Wertung der Aussagen des IGH / ICJ zu dem Fall „Völkermord durch Israel in Gaza“.Das UrteilCraig Murray, über dessen Beobachtungen des Verfahrens vor dem IGH ich bereits berichtete, nimmt natürlich auch zu dem vorläufigen Votum des Gerichts Stellung (3).Er erklärt, dass der IGH ganz eindeutig das Argument Israels, nämlich in Selbstverteidigung zu handeln, ablehnte, obwohl dies die Hälfte der israelischen Schriftsätze dominierte. Das Gericht stellte nicht nur fest, dass ein plausibler Fall von Völkermord vorliegt, sondern erwähnte die Selbstverteidigung in seinem Zwischenurteil nur ein einziges Mal - und das auch nur, um darauf hinzuweisen, dass Israel sich darauf berufen hatte. Dass der IGH das Recht Israels auf Selbstverteidigung nicht bestätigt, sei vielleicht der wichtigste Punkt in dieser Zwischenverfügung. Das Argument, das jeder westliche Staatschef verwendet, sei vom IGH zurückgewiesen worden, indem es einfach ignoriert wurde.„Was mir an der Entscheidung des IGH am meisten auffiel, war, dass der Beschluss viel detaillierter auf die Beweise für den Völkermord einging, als es nötig gewesen wäre. Die Beschreibung war eindeutig.“ (3)Dabei verweist Murray auf Paragraf 46. Der Grund, warum dies so entscheidend ist, sei, dass der Gerichtshof nicht sagt, dass Südafrika dies behauptet. Der Gerichtshof sage, dass dies die Fakten sind. Es ist eine Tatsachenfeststellung des Gerichtshofs. Für Murray ist das von alleräußerster Wichtigkeit. Der Gerichtshof gehe dann auf die Darstellungen der Vereinten Nationen über die tatsächliche Situation ein und zitiert ausführlich drei verschiedene hochrangige Beamte, darunter Philippe Lazzarini, Generalkommissar des UNRWA...... hier weiterlesen: https://apolut.net/das-ende-der-heuchelei-von-jochen-mitschka+++Bildquelle: Ralf Liebhold / Shutterstock.com+++Apolut ist auch als kostenlose App für Android- und iOS-Geräte verfügbar!

Mentre venivano uccisi altri 174 palestinesi e poco dopo la decisione della Corte internazionale di Giustizia (Cig) che all'Aja aveva definito “plausibile" l'accusa di “genocidio” a Gaza lo Stato di Israele ha ricominciato il tuo attacco frontale contro l'Unrwa, l'agenzia dell'Onu che assiste milioni di profughi palestinesi. Già nelle scorse settimane era emersa la possibilità che 12 lavoratori dell'agenzia dell'Onu avessero partecipato all'attacco di Hamas del 7 ottobre nel sud di Israele (1.200 morti). Il commissario generale dell'agenzia, Philippe Lazzarini, ha annunciato il licenziamento dei 12 accusati promettendo un'immediata indagine interna che faccia chiarezza sull'accaduto. Per Israele è stato fin troppo facile spostare la discussione dalle proprie responsabilità da una controffensiva che ha i contorni del massacro deliberato all'agenzia Onu. Dal 2009 in poi il premier Benyamin Netanyahu ha portato avanti un'opera di delegittimazione contro le Nazioni Unite appoggiato da Trump e da diversi governi europei. Se si vuole ammazzare, affamare e schiavizzare un popolo non c'è nulla di più fastidioso dei testimoni, come accade nel Mar Mediterraneo. Il direttore Philippe Lazzarini ha anticipato l'imminente stop alle operazioni per la distribuzione di aiuti da cui dipendono due milioni di persone a Gaza dipendono. “Nove Paesi (tra cui l'Italia, ndr) hanno sospeso provvisoriamente i loro finanziamenti all'Unrwa. Queste decisioni minacciano la nostra opera umanitaria nella regione, incluso e in modo particolare nella Striscia di Gaza”. La direttrice di +972 ed intellettuale israeliana Orly Noy ha detto al manifesto che “Le motivazioni di Israele sono evidentemente politiche, punendo l'Unrwa si negano i diritti dei profughi e si puniscono tutti i palestinesi”. #LaSveglia per La NotiziaDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/la-sveglia-di-giulio-cavalli--3269492/support.

Philippe Lazzarini ,The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees,  UNRWA,   voiced disappointment over Switzerland's recent move to cut aid to the agency, saying he hoped the Swiss officials would change their minds. The lower house of the Swiss parliament voted this month to cancel the funding it provides the UN agency for Palestinian refugees amid persistent accusations that the organization glorifies terror against Israel. Former Labor party Knesset member  Dr Einat Wilf is the author of The War of Return: How Western Indulgence of the Palestinian Dream Has Obstructed the Path to Peace KAN's Mark Weiss spoke to her about the role of UNRWA.

„Der Kampfeswille der Ukrainer ist ungebrochen, aber auch nicht endlos – der Krieg zeichnet jeden Menschen“, sagt Franz-Stefan Gady, Verteidigungsexperte am Institute for International Strategic Studies in London, im Gespräch mit Anna Engelke. Denn die Ukrainer wüssten um die Konsequenzen, käme es zu einem größeren russischen Durchbruch an der Front. Die ukrainische Gegenoffensive hält Gady für gescheitert – unter anderem, weil das ukrainische Militär zu viele verschiedene Angriffsachsen gebildet, den russischen Gegner unterschätzt und zu wenig Zeit für ein gemeinsames Training gehabt hätte. Wann und wie die Ukrainer in 2024 wieder zu größeren Offensiven fähig werden können, erläutert Gady in dieser Folge. Für die Ukraine ist diese Woche eine entscheidende. Sowohl im US-Kongress in Washington als auch bei der EU in Brüssel hängt wichtige Unterstützung in Milliardenhöhe für die Ukraine fest.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/yowplydd Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Gaza: Israeli forces in the center of Khan Younis, civilians on the ground. Gaza: fórsaí Iosrael i lár Khan Younis, sibhialtaigh ar an bhfán. The United Nations says 600,000 people in southern Gaza who have been ordered by Israeli forces to leave their towns soon have nowhere to go. Deir na Náisiúin Aontaithe nach bhfuil aon áit le dul ag 600,000 duine i ndeisceart Gaza ar ordaigh fórsaí Iosrael dóibh a mbailte a thréigean gan mhoill. According to the senior executive of the United Nations in the Palestinian territories, Philippe Lazzarini, half of those people have already left their burned-out towns but they are on the way since all the shelters have been full to the brim for a long time. Dar le feidhmeannach sinsearach na Náisiún Aontaithe sna críocha Palaistíneacha, Philippe Lazzarini, go bhfuil leath na ndaoine sin tar éis a mbailte a fhágáil ina dtáinte cheana féin ach gur ar an bhfán atá siad ó tá na hionaid dídine ar fad lán go boimbéal le fada. Although the Israelis have given instructions to the pilgrims to go to specific 'safe areas', the United Nations says that nowhere in Gaza is safe and that the Israelis are pretending. Cé go bhfuil treoracha tugtha ag na hIosraelaigh do na fánaithe dul chuig 'ceantair shábháilte' faoi leith, deir na Náisiúin Aontaithe nach bhfuil aon áit in Gaza sábháilte agus gur ag cur i gcéill atá na hIosraelaigh. Another thing is that these 'safe areas' are barren areas of land that have no resources or human resources at all, according to a local official from the United Nations. Rud eile de, is geadáin talún aimride atá sna 'ceantair shábháilte' seo nach bhfuil acmhainn ná áiseanna daonna dá laghad iontu, dar le hoifigeach áitiúil ó na Náisiúin Aontaithe. It is estimated that over 80% of the people of Gaza - both north and south - have been driven from their towns by this. Meastar go bhfuil os cionn 80 faoin gcéad de mhuintir Gaza – idir thuaidh agus theas – ruaigthe as a mbailte faoi seo. In this persecution, blood is constantly being shed. I gceann na géarleanúna seo, tá an fhuil á doirteadh i gcónaí. The Israelis have declared that their soldiers have reached the center of the city of Khan Younis in the south of Gaza and that they are going to fight with the Hamas forces there. Tá sé dearbhaithe ag na hIosraelaigh go bhfuil lár chathair Khan Younis i ndeisceart Gaza bainte amach ag a gcuid saighdiúirí agus go bhfuil siad ag dul i gcomhrac le lucht airm Hamas ann. The Israelis say they are determined to kill the Hamas leaders they believe are hiding in Khan Younis. Deir na hIosraelaigh go bhfuil rún daingean acu ceannairí Hamas a chreideann siad atá ina bhfolach in Khan Younis a bhású. In northern Gaza, Israeli forces are targeting specific areas in Gaza City, especially Jabalia. I dtuaisceart Gaza, is ag díriú ar cheantair faoi leith i gCathair Gaza, go háirithe Jabalia, atá fórsaí Iosrael. Of course, hundreds of thousands of civilians live in those places, many of them in the rubble of buildings flattened by Israeli bombs. Dar ndóigh, tá na céadta míle sibhialtach ina gcónaí sna háiteanna sin, cuid mhór acu i smionagar na bhfoirgneamh atá leacaithe ag buamaí na nIosraelach. Almost 16,000 people have been killed by the Israelis in Gaza in two months - 7,000 children among them - in the raids carried out by armed groups of Hamas on the south of Israel on October 7. Nach mór 16,000 duine atá maraithe ag na hIosraelaigh in Gaza le dhá mhí – 7,000 leanbh ina measc – i ndíol an ruathair a thug buíonta armtha Hamas ar dheisceart Iosrael ar an 7 Deireadh Fómhair. Hamas killed 1,200 people that day, including civilians and children. Mharaigh lucht Hamas 1,200 duine an lá sin, sibhialtaigh a mbunáite agus leanaí ina measc.

Stephen Sackur speaks to Philippe Lazzarini, head of UNRWA, the UN's refugee agency for Palestinians. He is just back from Gaza where the temporary truce gave him a chance to assess the scale of the humanitarian crisis. With Israel vowing to resume its war on Hamas, could Gaza soon be unliveable?

A cura di Daniele Biacchessi E' bastato il solo annuncio dell'apertura del valico di Rafah, tra Gaza e l'Egitto, per far scattare i primi movimenti di un popolo in fuga dalla fame, dalla guerra, dalla morte. E' il grande esodo di chi è rimasto imprigionato dopo gli attacchi di Hamas dello scorso 7 ottobre e dalla risposta militare israeliana. Al momento ne sono usciti oltre 400, esattamente 320 cittadini stranieri e 80 feriti gravi che non potevano essere assistiti negli ospedali di Gaza, ormai al limite della sicurezza sanitaria: sono in gran parte donne e bambini, che ora saranno curati in Egitto. Fra coloro che si sono salvati dall'inferno di Gaza ci sono quattro italiani e la moglie di uno di loro, palestinese, e cittadini di Stati Uniti, Giappone, Gran Bretagna, Austria, Giordania e altri Paesi. E' uscito anche il personale del Comitato internazionale della Croce rossa e di alcune delle ong che lavorano a Gaza: Medici senza Frontiere ha evacuato il suo staff internazionale, lasciando sul terreno i dipendenti palestinesi. Un nuovo gruppo di medici è pronto a entrare appena le condizioni lo permetteranno. Oggi è il turno di altre 7.500 persone, secondo una lista stilata dai diversi Paesi e dalle autorità egiziane e verificata anche da Israele. Si lasciano dietro alle loro spalle il disastro umanitario, politico e diplomatico, la distruzione di intere comunità, e oltre due milioni di abitanti che vivono ormai senza acqua ed elettricità, tagliati fuori dal resto del mondo per il black out delle comunicazioni, in condizioni sanitarie ormai impossibili da gestire. Il bilancio complessivo delle vittime, fornito dalle autorità della Striscia che fanno riferimento a Hamas, è di 8.796 morti di cui 3.648 bambini, 132 sanitari, e sono numeri in difetto. Restano le parole del commissario dell'Unrwa, l'agenzia per i rifugiati palestinesi, Philippe Lazzarini, dopo essere riuscito a entrare a Gaza. «Sono scioccato dal fatto che tutti chiedevano cibo e acqua. Non ho mai visto niente di simile». "Il Corsivo" a cura di Daniele Biacchessi non è un editoriale, ma un approfondimento sui fatti di maggiore interesse che i quotidiani spesso non raccontano. Un servizio in punta di penna che analizza con un occhio esperto quell'angolo nascosto delle notizie di politica, economia e cronaca. ___________________________________________________ Ascolta altre produzioni di Giornale Radio sul sito: https://www.giornaleradio.fm oppure scarica la nostra App gratuita: iOS - App Store - https://apple.co/2uW01yA Android - Google Play - http://bit.ly/2vCjiW3 Resta connesso e segui i canali social di Giornale Radio: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/giornaleradio.fm/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giornale_radio_fm/?hl=it

Israeli troops pushed deeper into Gaza on Tuesday, driving tanks and armored bulldozers through the rubble of shattered buildings and hunting for Hamas militants, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu categorically ruled out a cease-fire.10月31日，在以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡断然拒绝停火之后，以色列军队深入加沙地区，驾驶坦克和装甲推土机穿过被炸毁的建筑物废墟，追捕哈马斯武装人员。Israel said its forces attacked Hamas gunmen inside the vast tunnel network beneath Gaza.以色列方表示，以军袭击了加沙地下庞大地道网络中的哈马斯持枪人员。The tunnels are a key objective for Israel as it expands ground operations inside Gaza to wipe out the Hamas movement. Hamas has so far released four out of the 239 hostages Israel says were captured on Oct 7. Many of the hostages are believed to held in the tunnel network.隧道是以色列在加沙扩大地面行动以消灭哈马斯运动的一个关键目标。以色列称，哈马斯在10月7日挟持了239名人质，迄今已释放了其中4人。"Over the last day, combined IDF combat forces struck approximately 300 targets, including antitank missile and rocket launch posts below shafts, as well as military compounds inside underground tunnels belonging to Hamas," the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement.以色列国防军在声明中说：“在过去24小时内，以色列国防军袭击了约300个目标，其中包括反坦克导弹和火箭发射阵地，以及哈马斯的隧道和军事设施。The fighting came after Netanyahu on Monday evening slapped aside a call from 120 countries for a sustained humanitarian truce.10月30日晚的战斗发生前，内塔尼亚胡于对 120个国家要求持续人道主义停战的呼吁置之不理。"This will not happen," he told foreign media, vowing Israel would "fight until this battle is won".他向外国媒体表示：“这不会发生”，并发誓以色列将“战斗到这场战斗胜利为止”。"Calls for a cease-fire are calls for Israel to surrender to Hamas," he said.他说：“呼吁停火就是呼吁以色列向哈马斯投降。”China's Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin on Tuesday said the top priority now is the immediate full implementation of the United Nations' resolution as it reflects the strong voice of most countries, and to cease fire, stop violence and prevent the situation in Gaza from further deteriorating so there will not be an even greater humanitarian disaster.10月30日，中国外交部发言人汪文斌表示，当务之急是全面落实联大决议，该决议反映了大多数国家的强烈呼声，停火止暴，避免局势进一步恶化，防止出现更大的人道主义灾难。Every country has the right of self-defense, he said, but it needs to abide by the international law and protect the safety of civilians.汪文斌指出，各国都有自卫权，但都应遵守国际法，特别是国际人道法，保护平民安全。Wang said the root cause of the cycle of conflict between Palestine and Israel is the illegal occupation of Palestinian territories and noted that the basic rights of the Palestinian people have not been guaranteed for a long time.他表示，巴以冲突循环往复的根源在于巴勒斯坦领土长期被非法占领，巴勒斯坦人民独立建国的权利被长期忽视，巴勒斯坦民众的基本权利长期没有得到根本保障。"History has proved that violence cannot bring lasting peace and a cycle of violence and revenge only leads to further suffering," he said, adding that China will go ahead with unremitting efforts to promote a comprehensive, just and lasting resolution to the question of Palestine.汪文斌说：“历史证明，武力无法带来持久和平，以暴易暴只会陷入冤冤相报的恶性循环。”中方将为推动巴勒斯坦问题早日全面公正持久解决不懈努力.Israel launched the operation on Oct 7 in retribution for Hamas-led raids that killed an estimated 1,400 people, according to Israeli officials.以色列官方称，以色列于10月7日针对哈马斯的袭击发起了反击，该袭击造成约1400人死亡。More than three weeks of massive and sustained Israeli aerial bombardments have been followed by a large-scale ground offensive inside Gaza.在持续进行了三个多星期的大规模空中轰炸之后，以色列又在加沙发动了大规模地面进攻。Global backlash全球反对On Monday, witnesses saw "dozens" of Israeli tanks operating on the southern outskirts of Gaza City.周一，目击者看到“数十辆”以色列坦克在加沙城南郊活动。Israel's military also released images of mechanized units grinding through coastal sands in northern Gaza. They claimed an early victory: The rescue of one missing woman soldier from Hamas captivity.以色列军方还公布了机械化部队在加沙北部沿海沙地上行进的画面。他们宣称取得了早期胜利：从哈马斯手中营救出一名失踪女兵。But the toll from Israel's bombing campaign in Gaza has sparked a global backlash.但以色列在加沙的轰炸行动造成了巨大的伤亡，引发了全球反对。According to Gaza authorities, Israel's operation has killed more than 8,000 people, many of them children.据加沙当局，以色列的行动已造成8000多人死亡，其中有多数儿童。Thousands of buildings have been destroyed and the territory's 2.3 million residents have little access to water, food, fuel and other essentials.数以千计的建筑物被摧毁，加沙地区 230万居民几乎无法获得水、食物、燃料和其他必需品。Nearly 120 governments voted in favor of a nonbinding UN resolution calling for a sustained truce.近120个国家的政府投票赞成一项无约束力的联合国决议，呼吁持久停战。Gaza is believed to be on the brink of a humanitarian crisis, with very limited access to food and water, no fuel for electricity, and the "total collapse" of the health system.加沙正处于人道主义危机的边缘，食物和水的供应非常有限，没有燃料供电，医疗系统“完全崩溃”。On Monday, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees UNRWA said the limited number of aid trucks entering Gaza was insufficient to meet the "unprecedented humanitarian needs".10月30日，联合国近东巴勒斯坦难民救济和工程处表示，进入加沙的援助卡车数量有限，不足以满足“前所未有的人道主义需求”。"Nearly 70 percent of those reported killed are children and women," said Philippe Lazzarini, who heads UNRWA. "This cannot be 'collateral damage'."近东救济工程处负责人菲利普·拉扎里尼表示：“据报道，近70%的遇难者是儿童和妇女。他们不应该是战争的‘附带损害'”。Even Israel's staunchest allies have voiced concern over the dire humanitarian situation inside the territory.就连以色列最坚定的盟友也对加沙地区严峻的人道主义局势表示担忧。In Washington, the National Security Council's spokesman John Kirby said "pauses" to allow aid into Gaza should be considered.在华盛顿，美国国家安全委员会发言人约翰·柯比说，应该考虑“暂停”允许援助进入加沙。Israel said it is inspecting cargo to make sure weapons are not being smuggled in, and is monitoring to guarantee supplies are not seized by Hamas.以色列表示，他们正在检查入境加沙的货物，确保没有武器走私，且正在进行监控，确保物资不被哈马斯夺走。In Israel, citizens are still trying to comprehend the events of Oct 7.在以色列，人们仍在试图理解10月7日事件。Very little is known about the fate of the more than 230 hostages — aged between a few months and over 80 years old.对于230多名人质（年龄从几个月到80多岁不等）的命运，人们知之甚少。Hamas on Monday released a video of what it claimed were three women hostages, seated against a tile wall.哈马斯周一发布了一段视频，其中有三名女性人质坐在瓷砖墙边。One of the women called on Israel to agree to Hamas' demand to exchange hostages for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.其中一位认知呼吁以色列同意哈马斯的要求，用人质交换以色列关押的巴勒斯坦囚犯。The time and place of the recording could not be verified.录像的时间和地点无法确认。Netanyahu decried the clip as "cruel psychological propaganda".内塔尼亚胡对此表示强烈谴责。Israel Defense Forces n. 以色列国防军Collateral damagen. 附带性的破坏〔尤为军队等用语〕Humanitarian disastern. 人道主义灾难

El presidente López Obrador, miembros del gabinete federal y la gobernadora de Guerrero, Evelyn Salgado, presentaron esta mañana el plan de reconstrucción de Acapulco y Coyuca de Benítez, tras las afectaciones del huracán Otis. El plan de 20 puntos contempla principalmente la búsqueda de personas desaparecidas, reconstrucción de inmuebles, implementación de programas sociales, entrega de despensas y condonación de impuestos, luz y pago de vivienda.       Por su parte, el secretario de hacienda señaló que este plan de reconstrucción tendrá un costo de 61 mil 313 millones de pesos y será la secretaría de gobernación y el gobierno de guerrero quien coordine las obras. Además, la gobernadora de Guerrero, Evelyn Salgado, informó que se mantiene la cifra de 46 personas fallecidas y 58 desaparecidos.  De acuerdo con el reporte del gabinete de seguridad federal, en octubre se registraron 2 mil 148 homicidios en México, lo que representa una disminución de 2.1 por ciento, respecto a septiembre pasado.  Llama México ante la ONU al cese inmediato de hostilidades en gaza y exigió a Hamas la liberación inmediata de rehenes; durante la décima sesión especial de emergencia de la asamblea general de la ONU, la encargada de negocios en la representación permanente de México ante las naciones unidas, Alicia Buenrostro, llamó al establecimiento de un corredor humanitario, que permita el paso de civiles. Tras la apertura del pasaje de Rafah, al menos 320 personas extranjeras lograron cruzar a Egipto desde Gaza, en una primera evacuación de civiles; entre ellas la mexicana Michelle Ravel; en tanto Israel permitió la entrada a gaza del comisionado general de la agencia de la ONU para los refugiados palestinos, Philippe Lazzarini, quien señaló que la agencia permanecerá dentro de Gaza, y lamentó la muerte de 70 elementos de la organización por los bombardeos de Israel. para MVS Noticias, Jiro Montes de Oca.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Security Council briefing by Philippe Lazzarini, Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question.WHO has been working to support the Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population in planning and establishing a comprehensive triage, stabilization, and medical evacuation system, by providing ongoing training for health care staff. WHO is also working with the Egyptian Red Crescent Society to ensure that psychological trauma support services are available to patients.Our experts have visited Al-Arish, visited medical evacuation facilities and met with medical staff and ambulance paramedics who received advanced life support training. There are 65 ambulances equipped with full resuscitation and life support capabilities. Thirteen of the ambulance teams include trained emergency doctors in addition to paramedics with advanced life support training.Al-Arish Hospital will be the main first referral hospital. It has fully equipped resuscitation and intensive care facilities, and a range of surgical teams to manage severe injuries, including major trauma and burns. Onward referral arrangements to second-line hospitals in Egypt are also in place.Thousands more people inside the Gaza Strip continue to need access to urgent and essential health services amid shortages of medicines, health supplies and other aid such as fuel, water and food. Those in serious need include thousands of seriously injured civilians (many of them children); more than 1000 people who need kidney dialysis to stay alive; more than 2000 patients on cancer therapy; 45 000 people with cardiovascular diseases; and more than 60 000 people with diabetes. These patients must be able to have sustained access to health care inside Gaza. Hospitals and other health facilities must be protected from bombardment and military use.Before 7 October 2023, around 100 patients each day needed to access specialized health care services outside the Gaza Strip because of the lack of needed, specialized health services inside Gaza.#inspiringstories #inspirationalstory #faith #loveandtrust #podcast #newmedia #audiobookshttps://depictions.media/

El director de la Agencia de la ONU para los Refugiados Palestinos, Philippe Lazzarini, declaró que casi el 70% de los muertos confirmados son niños y mujeres: casi 3,200 niños han sido asesinados en Gaza en tres semanas, superando el número de niños asesinados anualmente en todas las zonas de conflicto del mundo desde 2019. Israel está llevando a cabo un "castigo colectivo". "Esto no puede ser calificado como un daño colateral".

Commissaire général de l'agence des Nations unies pour les réfugiés palestiniens (UNRWA). « Nous n'avons plus les moyens d'assurer l'aide humanitaire à Gaza. » L'alerte est lancée par Philippe Lazzarini, commissaire général de l'UNRWA, agence créée en 1949 pour fournir une assistance humanitaire aux réfugiés de Palestine et prendre en charge près de cinq millions de réfugiés, dont un grand nombre dans la bande de Gaza. Sous blocus total, sans eau, sans électricité, sans carburant et sous bombardements israéliens intensifs depuis les massacres du 7 octobre 2023 perpétrés par le Hamas, Gaza s'enfonce dans le chaos. Le président français Emmanuel Macron, en visite au Proche-Orient, a annoncé l'arrivée prochaine du navire-hôpital « Tonnerre » pour secourir les civils gazaouis. Alors que le secrétaire général de l'ONU et de nombreux pays dans le monde en appellent à « une pause humanitaire », quelle est la situation des populations de l'enclave ? Quelles sont les mesures d'urgence à prendre ? Comment apporter une aide humanitaire internationale ? Philippe Lazzarini, dont les équipes sont en première ligne à Gaza, est l'invité exceptionnel d'« Internationales ». Présentation : Françoise Joly (TV5MONDE), Laure Stephan (« Le Monde »). Depuis Amman (Jordanie).

The Middle East is on the "edge of an abyss". That's the warning from the United Nations. US President Joe Biden is asking for billions of dollars in funding for Ukraine and Israel, telling the American people they cannot give up on peace. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is continuing to spiral as hundreds of vehicles wait to be allowed into Gaza, to bring in vital supplies. Meanwhile, Israel has indicated that a ground invasion of Gaza is immenent. And there are fears the conflict could spill over, with warnings by UN agency chief, Philippe Lazzarini that the Middle East is on the 'edge of an abyss.' Washington Correspondent Nick Harper told Lisa Owen that getting the first 20 aid trucks across the border is a complex operation.

Eva Nowotny in conversation with Philippe Lazzarini UNRWA – The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees Eva Nowotny and Philippe Lazzarini talk about UNRWA, what makes it so special within the UN, why it is essential and what needs to be done to ensure a sustainable future of the organization and its work. Within the broader UN-family, UNRWA is quite a unique agency. It is the only organization in the UN family to provide direct public services like education, primary health care and a social safety net to Palestinian refugees in the region. It has a humanitarian mandate but its tasks are political in their impact in providing perspectives for Palestinian refugees. However, UNRWA finds itself in a crisis  due to the unreliability of its main donors. The agency needs a proper debate with the member states regarding common duties and commitment vis à vis Palestinian refugees in the future in order to find ways out of its precarity. Philippe Lazzarini is Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). Prior to this position, he was Deputy Special Coordinator, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator for Lebanon in the Office of the United Nations Special Coordinator for Lebanon (2015-2020) and Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator for Somalia (2013-2015). Philippe Lazzarini joined the United Nations in 2003 and has served the Organization in various capacities, including as Deputy Director, Coordination and Response Division of the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the Head of the OCHA Office for the occupied Palestinian territory, Somalia and Angola and as Area Coordinator for the OCHA Office in Iraq. Before joining the United Nations, he served for ten years with the International Committee of the Red Cross as the Deputy Head of Communication, Head of the ICRC Delegation in Rwanda, Angola and Sarajevo and as an ICRC delegate in Southern Sudan, Jordan, Gaza and Beirut.

Nada hace presagiar que la crisis en Palestina encuentre un camino diferente al actual. Las hostilidades, los conflictos y la tensión persiste con mayor nivel de preocupación ante el posible cierre de la Agencia UNRWA por falta de financiación. La última reunión de la Comisión Asesora de la Agencia de Naciones Unidas para los refugiados y refugiadas de Palestina en Oriente Próximo (UNRWA) se celebró en Beirut en medio de una inmensa preocupación por la alarmante situación financiera de la Agencia. Philippe Lazzarini, Comisionado General de UNRWA, pidió a los participantes que aumenten la financiación para la Agencia, reiterando el riesgo real y el impacto probable de una suspensión de los servicios para los refugiados de Palestina. Sin la llegada de fondos adicionales inmediatos, UNRWA no podrá mantener las operaciones más allá de septiembre de 2023, amenazando así con el cierre de más de 700 escuelas y 140 centros de salud. Estas indeseadas consecuencias. además, conllevarían la paralización de los servicios de emergencia en todas las áreas de operación, dejando a millones de refugiados palestinos al borde de la inanición. La Agencia necesita urgentemente alrededor de 200 millones de dólares para continuar brindando los habituales servicios humanitarios, pagar a su personal y terminar con el círculo vicioso de la deuda. De no obtener esa cantidad existe el riesgo real de interrumpir la asistencia efectiva a más de 600.000 refugiados palestinos en Siria, Jordania y Líbano en el último trimestre del año. Mientras no llega una pronta solución económica, Cisjordania sigue presenciando un mayor deterioro en la protección de los refugiados palestinos debido a unos niveles de violencia sin precedentes. En este sentido, la financiación de UNRWA ayudaría a proporcionar asistencia efectiva a los más vulnerables, proporcionar apoyo psicosocial y asesoramiento a personas adultas y a la infancia, uno de los colectivos más vulnerable en medio de este infinito conflicto. Entrevista a Raquel Martí, directora de la Agencia de Naciones Unidas para los refugiados y refugiadas de Palestina en Oriente Próximo (UNRWA).

Without $1.6 billion in funding for essential services and humanitarian aid to help Palestinian refugees this year, they could hit rock bottom, the head of the UN Relief and Works Agency – or UNRWA – said on Tuesday.In an interview with UN News's Daniel Johnson, UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini explains where the needs are most acute, and why the agency is an “indispensable” stabilizing force in the Middle East.

Pauvreté endémique, conséquences de la pandémie de Covid-19, crise financière inquiétante, temps difficiles entre 2018 et 2020, relations avec la Suisse et d'autres pays donateurs, nouvelle donne politique au Proche-Orient suite au rapprochement entre certains États arabes et Israël: dans quelle mesure l'agence de secours de l'ONU pour les réfugiés de Palestine (UNRWA), créée en décembre 1949 et qui vient en aide à quelque 5,6 millions de réfugiés de Palestine dans la bande de Gaza, en Cisjordanie, en Jordanie, au Liban et en Syrie, peut-elle continuer d'opérer ? Son Commissaire général Philippe Lazzarini répond à quelques unes de ces questions, au Club suisse de la presse à notre micro.

On this episode, we speak to Sudan's ambassador to the United States, Nureldin Satti. He discusses the coup in Sudan which overthrew Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok just hours after US envoy Jeffrey Feltman was in Khartoum. He also addresses the economic crisis in a country where the majority are impoverished, the legacy of former autocrat Omar al-Bashir, economic ties with China, and much more. Finally, we speak to Philippe Lazzarini, the director-general of the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). He discusses the agency facing collapse due to lack of funding, the impact this shortage has had on Palestinian refugees who rely on the agency for a lifeline, his message for Boris Johnson who cut funding for UNRWA, and the agency's work in Gaza, where its schools were a safe haven during the Israeli bombardment campaign this summer. He also talks about the international community's ‘abandonment' of refugees, and much more.

In Gaza, a UN official called for a genuine political process to avert further bloodshed after the military conflict between Israel and Islamist group Hamas that ravaged the Palestinian enclave.Head of the UN Palestinian refugee agency, Philippe Lazzarini, says the reconstruction needed to go hand in hand with efforts to create a different political environment.He says they need to have a genuine focus on human development on proper access to education, jobs and livelihoods.

Este viernes 14 de mayo, Cinco continentes vuelve a comenar en Oriente Próximo. El ejército israelí ha llevado a cabo esta pasada madrugada la operación más intensa de bombardeos, más de cien, sobre la Franja de Gaza. La reciente escalada ha causado más de un centenar de muertos en ese territorio de Palestina y nueve en territorio de Israel. Analizamos cómo afecta esto a quienes realizan tareas humanitarias en la zona con Philippe Lazzarini, comisario general de la UNRWA. También nos interesamos por la protesta de hoy en Colombia en contra de los abusos sexuales a manos de policías durante las recientes manifestaciones antigubernamentales.
