‘Very sick and very tired’: the reality of famine for Gaza’s most vulnerable

Catastrophic hunger caused by aid blockade is most keenly felt by elderly people, the young and the destitute In the overcrowded, rubble strewn streets of Gaza City, there was little surprise at the announcement that UN-backed experts believed the scenes of desperation could now be formally described as a famine. “This is something we have been saying for months now, and we have witnessed this and we have been living this and suffering this.

Industrial scale trawling threatens the complete collapse of sprat populations on which the incredibly rich marine ecosystem of Bantry Bay depends. SAVE OUR SPRAT is campaigning for a moratorium on all such activity until the species recovers. Please join or support us!! www.saveoursprat.ie

Proud to attend the official launch of the EU Mission City label today — with my colleague and Lord Mayor, Dan Boyle, an Taoiseach, Micheál Martin, and community and industry representatives. It's those representatives who will lead the city's response to the climate emergency. 👏👏
