https://t.co/9cmbFCCU4z NRC's @alex_saieh tells AP, refugees & migrants in Libya are scared to leave their homes in light of arrests, “This is really a ‘wake-up call’ to the dire situation that exists in Libya for migrants & refugees & the international community must step up.” https://t.co/C4svUCYrbF For Beirut’s most vulnerable residents, housing conditions have always been poor and uncertain. This report unpacks the multiple forms of housing vulnerability, (in)formal coping strategies and lists policy, area and household level recommendations. (2/2) New @NRC_Norway report on housing, land and property challenges in the light of the #Beirut Explosion. Available here: https://t.co/rp8lu7CkoK (1/2) UPDATE: We're hearing estimates of 3500 migrants detained in #Tripoli #Libya over the last 24 hours. Some are in detention centers. The situation remains tense & we're doing what we can to help people access information. NRC continues to monitor the situation. "We are hearing that more than 500 migrants including women and children have been rounded up, arbitrarily detained and are at risk of abuse and ill-treatment," said Dax Roque, #Libya Country Director of the Norwegian Refugee Council. Read more: https://t.co/NobWYWhjIq We are alarmed at today's mass arrests of over 500 migrants in Tripoli, #Libya. Those detained should be immediately released and the authorities should end the wider crackdown on migrants and refugees. @NRC_Norway statement: https://t.co/ZdRwU6AiMi In partnership with @giz_gmbh, we are providing much-needed Cash for Work opportunities to help Syrian refugees like Faisal earn an income and stay economically active.

The violence must STOP. Civilians must be PROTECTED. |
4/4 With conflict creeping closer towards Marib City, fighting could reach densely populated urban residential neighbourhoods, lead to high numbers of civilian casualties, and cut off people’s access to aid and services. |
3/4 https://t.co/L12xKfEjdz Many of these newly displaced people live in harsh, overcrowded desert conditions, in makeshift shelters made of old blankets and plastics sheets. They need food, cooking items, clean water, protection, and a home. NRC is on the ground and is scaling up our operations. |
2/4 https://t.co/4YPbJg0HeK Conflict in Yemen’s gas-rich region of #Marib is making a bad humanitarian situation worse. Escalation in fighting there means more people are fleeing their homes out of fear. Over 24k people have been displaced so far this year, many of them for second or third time. |

#InternationalYouthDay https://t.co/Ofpqsxf38Y #InternationalYouthDay events were in full swing today at both Azraq and Zaatari camps, celebrating the resumption of face-to-face youth training in Jordan and giving refugee youth the opportunity to enjoy activities they’ve missed out on for the past year – like football! https://t.co/WS7fOSiBRZ Five reasons why Yemen’s Sana’a airport must reopen: |
Save lives and prevent premature deaths |
More freedom to move around |
Quicker, easier and cheaper way to bring goods and aid into the country |
Good for the economy |
Build confidence in the peace process |
https://t.co/ZRJbwSJIgb “We urge the Saudi-led coalition, the internationally recognised Yemen government and Ansar Allah, to put the lives of Yemeni civilians first by agreeing on reopening the airport,” "thousands of Yemenis with long-term health conditions such as cancer, kidney, liver and blood conditions have died while waiting for treatment unavailable in Yemen." “Patients are trapped in Yemen, even when there is a route to save them. For thousands of sick Yemenis who need urgent medical treatment abroad, these last five years have amounted to a death sentence." "Five years of restrictions imposed on Yemen’s airspace by the Saudi-led coalition is preventing thousands of sick Yemeni civilians from seeking urgent medical treatment outside the country" "Sana’a’s airport closure for the fifth consecutive year has left stranded at least 32,000 critically ill Yemeni patients in need of life-saving treatment abroad, since the first and last medical flights in February last year." |

https://t.co/xgILAlJmMb "The formation of a Lebanese gov and the implementation of wide-ranging governance reforms is the key to unlocking the long-term, structural international support needed to create jobs, provide services and social protection. Only that can avert a total humanitarian disaster." "People we work with tell us they are skipping their meals, postponing critical healthcare and fearing homelessness because they can no longer pay the rent." “While we welcome the continued international support to Lebanon through a new funding mechanism to help the most vulnerable, this is far from enough to help the country survive the full force of its ongoing economic and political crisis." “The international conference in support of the Lebanese people held today falls short of providing the mammoth changes desperately needed one year since the Beirut explosion."

#Lebanon #BeirutExplosion https://t.co/B3oqWNuhSY Today marks one year since the Beirut explosion. We caught up with four of the people we met a year ago, right after the blast changed their homes, and their lives, forever. These 4 people have one thing in common: a total lack of hope for the future. |
