The war on aid is spiteful and exacts and intolerable human cost. I agree with this analysis :

On Friday, the global humanitarian system was jolted by a sudden & extremely drastic move: the US announced the freezing of virtually all foreign aid, based on Trump's latest exective order. Cruel even by Trump standards. More ๐ www.instagram.com/p/DFUx2NVoMp...
The consequences of even just a freeze will be catastrophic www.bbc.com/news/article...
Arenโt we supposed to commemorate the liberation of Auschwitz 80 years ago today? Instead we see razziaโs and deportation of migrants in the land of the free and ethnic cleansing across Palestineโฆ insanely cruel and dangerous times that are reminiscent of a dark page in modern history.
No surprise there, tough times ahead for the aid community and the millions of people who depend on aid through no fault of their ownโฆ

A short impression (60 sec video limit on Bluesky) about the situation of refugees following incessant attacks on their villages in northern Mali. With so many ongoing conflicts in the world, the crisis in the Sahel is at risk of passing under the radar.
Some weeks ago, reporter @celianmace shed light on the situation of people that are fleeing northern Mali โen masseโ. We were there and their stories were shocking and heartbreaking ๐.
Thank you @ecdpm.org !
