For more than two decades, the UN’s humanitarian air service has delivered life-saving humanitarian aid to people in remote and hard-to-reach areas. Despite funding cuts, @WFP_UNHAS remains committed to its vital work serving the world’s most vulnerable. wfp.org/unhas

✈ @WFP_UNHAS is how we reach people who would otherwise be unreachable. Let’s keep it flying.

“This is one of the worst tragedies we’ve seen,” @WFPChief tells me as dozens of Palestinians were reportedly killed by Israeli fire while desperately approaching a @wfp 25-truck aid convoy in northern Gaza. She tells me how it all unfolded and calls for immediate humanitarian…

WFP Statement | #Gaza On the morning of 20 July, a 25 truck WFP convoy carrying vital food assistance crossed the Zikim border point destined for starving communities in northern Gaza. Shortly after passing the final checkpoint beyond the Zikim crossing point into Gaza, the…

Humanitarians working to save lives SHOULD NEVER risk their own.

#Gaza

Naem Ahmed's family hugged the last bag of WFP wheat flour they received - a small celebration amid desperate conditions. Everyone in #Gaza is hungry. It's time to flood the Strip with food and reach ALL families, everywhere - safely and without interruption.

#DidYouKnow that @WFP uses Unmanned Aircraft to deliver life-saving supplies to remote communities? The initiative aims to improve access to hard-to-reach areas, increase efficiency while enhancing operational flexibility in humanitarian assistance delivery. #UAS

Today, more than 80 million children in Latin America and the Caribbean receive school meals. School meal programmes have proven to improve nutrition, drive local economies, and support education outcomes for generations. 🍎✏️✨ ow.ly/otWG50Wr9X9

Kfarchouba was home to 11,000 people—today, only 1,000 are living here. I visited southern Lebanon & met with government stakeholders still grappling with the aftermath of destruction. @WFP continues to work with partners to help ease the burden through food assistance.

Today, @WFPChiefEcon addressed @EP_Development with a stark warning: rising hunger – caused by conflict, weather extremes and economic hardship – is being met with falling aid. If we don’t address the root causes, we risk more suffering, deeper instability and forced migration.

Decreasing funding has consequences. Last year, @WFP helped 124 million people. This year, we won't be able to help more than 100 million people. To reduce suffering, we need to work with our partners like the #EU and its Member States to address the underlying causes of hunger.

No fuel in Gaza means no hospitals, no clean water, no food. Our statement. @WHO, @UNDP, @UNFPA, @UNOPS, @UNRWA, @WFP: unocha.org/news/un-warns-…

In #SouthSudan’s Upper Nile, surging conflict is pushing families to the edge of famine. ✈️@WFP is delivering lifesaving food—including by airdrop—to reach those cut off by violence. ⚠️But to scale up, we need secure river routes and urgent funding. Lives depend on it. ⤵️

Thank you to our Goodwill Ambassadors, Advocates & High-Level Supporters for joining today’s briefing on #SchoolMeals. @WFP helps 60+ governments reach 100M+ children each year—investing in: Children's health Family hope Overall stability Your voice matters. Grateful for you!

#Gaza: WFP perseveres and distributes food to vulnerable communities in Northern Gaza; agency urgently appeals for non- interference with ongoing aid operations. Without sustained and unimpeded access the risk of starvation looms larger. ⬇️ FULL STATEMENT⬇️

343M+ people worldwide face extreme hunger. Food = Dignity + Stability & Hope. #InternationalDayofHope

Nowadays, hope can seem hard to find. I see hope in activists raising their voices for human rights, in humanitarian heroes overcoming obstacles to help the most vulnerable. And I see hope in the @UN, where countries address the world’s biggest challenges together.…
