This weekend’s escalation in the Middle East is a reckless breach of international law with consequences far beyond the region.
The US and Israel’s attacks on Iran undermine the rules‑based order, and the silence of many Western leaders at this moment is deeply alarming.
Regional Directors of 14 INGOs in the Middle East Region, including Oxfam, have expressed profound concern at the accelerating military escalation across the Middle East and the wider region. www.oxfam.org.uk/mc/buot88/

Quote from Beth John, Climate Justice Advisor at Oxfam; "Abandoning those most exposed to a crisis they did not cause, whilst doing very little to ensure the biggest and richest polluters pay their fair share for the climate damage they are responsible for is deeply unfair. Deciding not to fairly tax these wealthy polluters – which could raise billions of public finance a year without costing the UK taxpayer – is not just a conscious choice by the government, but a statement about whose futures matter."
“The UK should be expanding its support for communities on the front lines of the climate crisis - not shrinking it."
Following reports of planned cuts to the UK's climate finance budget, Oxfam GB joins calls for the UK government to increase climate finance and pay its fair share.

People, goods and humanitarian assistance must be able to move safely and unhindered, in line with international law. A crossing that functions at the discretion of external parties and allows only a nominal number of people to cross daily doesn't amount to freedom of movement, a fundamental right.
The reopening of #Rafah crossing between Egypt and #Gaza is desperately needed for people who have been trapped without options for months, but reopening alone is not enough.
Oxfam’s Policy Lead for the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Bushra Khalidi told the BBC international law must be upheld.
“We are witnessing the impact of aid cuts every single day. Every aspect of people’s lives is being affected. Food, clean water and healthcare are not choices or luxuries - they are fundamental human rights.” - Oxfam's Magnus Corfixen www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
