#Shanghai’s strict lockdown has been extended indefinitely, and it’s still impossible to order food and water. Got up at 5.30am again today but still, system gridlock. As I tried and tried to place my order, my basket depleted as essentials sold out. Madness. #shanghai #lockdown

A woman from Mariupol came to Hungary with 4 kids. Her own. Her sister’s kid (mother went to find water and disappeared). Child of her killed neighbors. She was running for an evacuation bus and saw a kid, sitting on the street next to his dead parents. She took him too.

Critical food shortages in #Afghanistan. One million children may die of starvation. The Mirwais hospital at Kandahar is full of severely malnourished children. The country is heading for a humanitarian catastrophe, and aid is not coming in. #Afghanishtan #humanitarian
