Nothing PM Netanyahu said in today's speech changes the reality on the ground for Palestinians. Israel continues to obstruct aid, bomb, displace and starve civilians. We need a #ceasefirenow, hostages returned safely, full access for humanitarian aid & to stop arms sales.

Women and girls in Afghanistan continue to be banned from getting an education and have been pushed out of public life.
Now they’re missing from UN backed talks with the Taliban in Doha about the future of the country.
A devastating outcome for Afghan women and girls who not only feel abandoned by the international community but remain excluded from talks about their future.
