Alessandra Vellucci, Directrice du Service d'information des Nations Unies (SINU) à Genève, a présidé le point de presse hybride, auquel ont participé des porte-parole et des représentants de l'Organisation internationale du Travail, du Fonds des Nations Unies pour l'enfance, de l'Organisation mondiale de la Santé, de l'Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'alimentation et l'agriculture et du Programme alimentaire mondial.
Appel humanitaire mondial de l'UNICEF pour les enfants touchés par les conflits et les catastrophes
Ted Chaiban, Directeur exécutif adjoint de l'UNICEF pour l'action humanitaire et les opérations d'approvisionnement, a déclaré que tout au long de ses plus de 25 ans de carrière à l'UNICEF, il était difficile de se rappeler une année où la situation des enfants touchés par les conflits et les catastrophes avait été aussi grave que celle que nous vivons actuellement. Le travail des organisations humanitaires n'avait que rarement été aussi important ou complexe. La situation épouvantable à Gaza, qui nous a profondément ébranlés dans notre humanité, en est un exemple.
