Gaza is “a post-apocalyptic environment,” with “people just waiting to be killed, either by airstrike, by disease, or even by hunger,” says UNRWA chief Philippe @UNLazzarini.
On the consequences of the Knesset vote to stop UNRWA’s operations, he warns “that means that the backbone of the humanitarian response in Gaza will collapse.”
Watch my full conversation with UNRWA’s commissioner general about the humanitarian disaster in Gaza, Israel’s move to shut down the organization, allegations of links to Hamas, and more.

Remembering John Berger born on this day in 1926. Before starting my Foundation course at St Albans college of art in 1984 ‘Ways If Seeing’ was our required reading, still sharp and relevant now. It was an honour to provide the artwork for his last book ‘Ein Geschenk Fur Rosa’
