I strongly condemn today's horrific attack on mourners at a church in #Karak. My deepest condolences to the families of the victims, and my wishes for a swift recovery to the injured. Places of worship must be safe for all. The @UnitedNationsJO stands with the people of #Jordan.

أُدين بشدة الاعتداء الآثم الذي استهدف اليوم المشيّعين في إحدى كنائس #الكرك. أتقدّم بأحرّ التعازي وأصدق مشاعر المواساة إلى ذوي الضحايا، مع تمنياتي للمصابين بالشفاء العاجل. يجب أن تبقى دور العبادة ملاذاً آمناً للجميع. تقف @UnitedNationsJO إلى جانب الشعب الأردني.

Over 352,000 @Refugees registered. Nearly 1 million calls to the Helpline each year. With 🇪🇺 funding, UNHCR keeps registration centres running, brings documentation services closer to refugees & answers calls from those seeking information and support. 🔗 bit.ly/3UGnqjg

At 65, Halima has spent over a decade in #ZaatariCamp after fleeing Syria. A mother, grandmother, and passionate gardener, she finds comfort in caring for her plants while holding onto hope for the future.🌿 "I hope Syria will be rebuilt and that we can return to our homeland"💙
