Håber Sofie, som jeg normalt anser for en talentfuld politiker og debattør, læser lidt op på emnet inden du kommer med så bombastiske udtalelser. Hun og andre fra Venstre kan starte i denne tråd som viser den enorme effekt udviklingsbistand har på konflikt, sundhed, mv
Vores udviklingsbistand et meget den diplomatiske version af at betale en formue for en sabbatårsrejse, hvor man taget selfies med afrikanske børn og lærer dem en smule engelsk. Det er primært effektivt for vores egen gode samvittighed #dkpol

I spent yesterday in Korma with survivors of El Fasher atrocities. So many halting, harrowing conversations in Arabic, or translated from Zaghawa, about horror and misery.
Then Haseena pushed through crowd. Speaking in perfect English, she wanted the world to hear her story.

Israeli forces are said to have dropped more explosives on Gaza than fell on London, Dresden and Hamburg combined in the Second World War. The level of destruction is hard to fathom as is the humanitarian suffering.
Our Foreign Affairs Correspondent @SecKermani looks at the damage that’s been done and the challenges of now rebuilding if the ceasefire holds.

When the BBC decided to pull its documentary Gaza: How To Survive a Warzone, 13-year-old Abdullah al-Yazuri found himself in the middle of a national row in Britain. He’d hoped to share and document the “suffering that children in Gaza” face.
Instead, he found himself facing torrents of online harassment, abuse and death threats. Middle East Eye told his story, in an exclusive interview by Palestinian journalist Mohammed Salama, who was killed alongside 20 other Palestinians, including other journalists, in an Israeli strike on Gaza’s Nasser Hospital.
We’re proud to share with you that the exclusive interview with Abdullah is being recognised as a Lovie Awards finalist under the Public Service & Activism category - and now, your vote can help it reach even more people.

An independent media is vital for democracy. Access to information enables all people to make decisions and hold the powerful to account.
A world without journalism is a world without truth.

Israeli forces continue to demolish high-rise residential buildings in Gaza City, claiming without evidence that Hamas is using them.
Analysts say the destruction shows a clear intent to render the city uninhabitable, an act they say amounts to ethnic cleansing and genocide.
My thoughts are with my brave and dedicated former colleagues at @DRCinUA and the families of those who were killed doing an important but dangerous job. I am sorry for your loss!!

At the rate journalists are being killed in Gaza by the Israeli army, there will soon be no one left to keep you informed. We join with more than 150 other media outlets across the world, to condemn these crimes. And we call on the Israeli authorities to allow independent access for the international press in the Gaza Strip. #ProtectJournalistsInGaza #LetReportersIntoGaza cpj.org/full-coverage-israel…

Jana, 9, was evacuated from north Gaza last year, with UNICEF’s support.
Now she’s battling severe malnutrition again.
UNICEF’s Tess Ingram speaks with Jana’s mother, Nesma, who already lost a daughter, Jouri, to malnutrition.
These horrors must stop. Jana and all children in Gaza must be prioritized and protected now.

Journalists are civilians under international humanitarian law.
Facilities and equipment utilized for reporting and disseminating news are also civilian structures.
They must be respected and protected.
Journalists are #NotATarget.
