Spoke with SAF leadership on the gravity of the crisis in Sudan and my alarm over looming famine. The SAF must immediately facilitate the delivery of lifesaving aid to desperate Sudanese by opening the Adre border crossing from Chad to allow World Food Programme access. usaid.gov/news-informati…

Ready-to-use therapeutic foods (RUTF) to treat over 7K kids have arrived in Cyprus, the first stop on its way to the maritime corridor to Gaza. RUTF is formulated to address the most life-threatening form of malnutrition & can be a lifeline for thousands of kids in Gaza.

In the wake of Russia's brutal attacks on Ukraine's energy grid, Ukraine needs critical assistance to keep electricity flowing to millions of Ukrainians across the country. Recently, USAID completed the delivery of 7 autotransformers – a step in expanding their energy capacity.

860,000 people in Sudan have been denied humanitarian aid for more than a month because the warring parties are blocking access to lifesaving aid.

Millions face famine because of the conflict.

SAF & RSF must open up full access for humanitarian aid and end the conflict now.

Humanitarian assistance should never be a target.

Recent attacks on humanitarian convoys trying to reach Palestinian civilians are unacceptable and only exacerbate an already dire humanitarian crisis.

Russia’s recent attacks on Ukraine’s energy system are the worst since Putin began his full-scale invasion. USAID supports Ukraine’s energy resilience, recently delivering 91 cogeneration units that ease pressure on the grid by providing heat and power to >1 million Ukrainians.

The U.S. strongly condemns the attack today from Rwanda Defense Forces and M23 positions on the Mugunga camp for Internally Displaced Persons in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is essential that all states respect each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
