In my full interview with Christian Fraser on @BBCNews, I stressed the need to protect humanitarian workers and use proven aid delivery mechanisms. Getting fuel into Gaza is urgent, but how we deliver aid matters just as much.
UNOPS Washington Liaison Office retweeted
Reports in that @UNOPS premises in central #Gaza was struck today. My immense gratitude & thoughts are with colleagues supporting humanitarian operations in such difficult times.
Aid workers must be protected & all parties must abide by international humanitarian law.

Karuna Herrmann, Director of UNOPS Jerusalem, told @BBCNews that only a third of needed fuel is entering Gaza.
"If fuel runs out, the consequences are severe and immediate."

For the first time since the ceasefire, @UNOPS has been able to bring fuel into #Gaza. 150k litres over 2 days.
A critical step, but still just one-third of what’s needed daily.
Humanitarian operations remain at risk without sustained and sufficient fuel access.

Ukraine is adapting train tracks in the country's west to European rail gauge, which will boost transport capacity to the EU and create new economic opportunities.

Great to meet Kalpana Kochhar, Director of Development Finance and Policy at the @gatesfoundation.
We discussed the future of development cooperation architecture and the need to address the implementation gap especially in fragile contexts.

UNOPS Washington Liaison Office retweeted
Many communities still lack reliable infrastructure & it’s holding back development.
At #FfD4, I called for an end to “build-neglect-rebuild” cycle.
We must shift to long-term planning, smart budgeting & lifecycle management. @UNOPS offers #PracticalSolutions to make it happen.
