The general meeting includes the 193 UN member states and 142 countries voted in favor of A resolution Support the document.

Israel voted against her, alongside nine other countries-Argentina, Hungary, Micronesia, Nauru, Palaos, Papuasie-Nouvelle.

“Roadmap” for the future

Before the vote, the French ambassador Jérôme Bonnafont recalled that the New York Declaration “presents a single roadmap to deliver the solution to two states”.

This implies an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, the release of all the hostages held there and the creation of a Palestinian state that is both viable and sovereign.

The roadmap also calls for the disarmament of Hamas and its exclusion from governance in Gaza, normalization between Israel and Arab countries, as well as collective security guarantees.

Speaking before the vote, the Israeli ambassador Danny Danon said that “this unilateral statement will not remain in memories as a stage towards peace, only as another hollow gesture which weakens the credibility of this assembly.”

He said that “Hamas is the greatest winner of all approval here today” and will declare it “the fruit of October 7”.

The high -level international conference in July took place in the context of the war in Gaza and to deteriorate the prospects of the two -state solution.

In remarks in the opening segment, a Secretary General António Guterres Note that “the central question for peace in the Middle East is the implementation of the two-state solution, where two independent, sovereign and democratic United States-Israel and Palestine-live side by side in peace and security”.

The meeting was requested by Poland after having pointed out that at least 19 violations by Russian drones of its territory overnight in a large -scale missile and a strike of drones against Ukraine.

The episode has marked the most serious foray since the start of Ukraine’s large -scale invasion in Russia in 2022.

While Poland and its NATO allies have shot down several of the drones, the incident increased tensions in the region – and has put the new threats posed by the drone war at the heart of the diplomatic debate.

Ascension of the drone

The incursion reported in Polish airspace highlights the growing role of drones in modern conflicts.

Relatively inexpensive and easy to deploy, drones are completing more and more – and in some cases in supplanting – conventional military equipment.

The armies, armed groups and militias around the world quickly adapt to their use, allowing strikes and recognitions with a lower risk for staff.

However, dysfunctions, loss of control and human errors can lead to strikes or involuntary impacts – in particular when deployed in cities and cities as opposed to the battlefield.

Analysts also say that drones scrambled the border between traditional military operations and asymmetrical war, which increases the risk of involuntary climbing through borders.

The Right’s Office, OhchrAsked 314 witnesses who left the RPDC – more commonly known as North Korea – and has consulted several organizations and experts to assess human rights conditions since 2014.

The situation has not improved and, in many cases, has worsened, “bringing even more suffering to the population,” said spokesperson Liz Throssell, information journalists in Geneva.

James Heenan, head of the office working on the RPDC, stressed the seriousness of human rights violations, where even a minor offense can lead to a sanction.

Killed to share online shows

“” We have credible evidence that individuals were executed-not only to watch the K-Dramas. The crime is for distribution At a certain level, foreign information, foreign media, “he said.

The report revealed that new laws, political and practices have led to increased surveillance and control over citizens, some of whom found themselves in forced work camps, as political prisoners.

Work in “shock brigades”

In a form of forced work called “shock brigades”, the Pyongyang authorities would have used thousands of orphans and street children to work in coal mines and other environments, exposing them to dangerous and long hours of work, according to the United Nations report.

Heenan also added that schoolchildren are also used to doing “exhausting” work collected harvesting and although they were supposed to be in class.

“The government says that it is a sort of study program to help them acquire life skills. But the information we have had for many years He responds to the qualification of forced work because children have no choice“He said.

The physically demanding and dangerous work of brigades is also undertaken by residents of the military or penitentiary system, as well as by mainly poor families of families who wish to become party members or improve their social status.

Deaths would be frequent under these conditions, but rather than increasing security measures, PDR publicly glorifies deaths as a sacrifice to the chief, according to the report.

The widely used death penalty

In 2014 and 2015, many senior officials were reportedly performed for “anti-state acts”, the report said.

Although this trend later decreased, escape said that from 2020, execution was used for the distribution of unauthorized media, drugs and economic crimes, prostitution, pornography, traffic and murder.

Since 2015, six new laws have made it possible to use the death penalty for offenses such as vaguely defined “anti-state” propaganda.

The respondents said they also witnessed public executions in the past decade. The report explains that the government has organized public tests and executions to inspire fear in the population and dissuasive.

“To block the eyes and ears of the people, they reinforced the repression,” said one of the witnesses to Ohchr.

Not enough progress

The escape expressed that certain improvements had been made to the treatment of people in detention establishments. North Korea has also ratified two other human rights treaties, but the report ultimately concludes that it is far from respecting its obligations under international law.

The RPDC remains more isolated than any other nation, adding more to the difficulty of monitoring and implementing fair human rights standards.

“” What we have seen is a lost decade »» said UN Human Rights Head Volker Türk. “And it hurts to say that if the RPDC continues on its current trajectory, the population will be subject to more suffering, brutal repression and fear that they have endured for so long. »»

“We all at the United Nations suffering from a strengthening of the ban on women working with us … We simply cannot work without a woman”, ” said Arafat Jamal, UN refugee agency (Hcr) Representative of Afghanistan, one day after agencies warned that the measures of de facto authorities had an impact on vital aid for hundreds of thousands of people.

Last Sunday, de facto The Afghan security forces have prevented national staff and UN entrepreneurs to enter the compounds of the world organization in Kabul, the United Nations mission in the country, UNAMA, said on Thursday in a statement.

Closed centers

And in light of the restrictions on Tuesday, UNHCR temporarily closed its cash and support centers for vulnerable Afghans, at the border and in areas where so many people have returned from Iran, Pakistan and elsewhere since the beginning of the year.

The registration process is to provide biometric data, as well as screening and interviews – work that would be “entirely impossible without Afghan workers”, said the UNHCR manager, noting that more than one in two returnees are women.

“” It was an operational decision,»M. Jamal continued. “” It is not a decision taken to punish who. “”

Since the start of the year, some 2.6 million Afghans have returned from neighboring countries – “a lot by choice,” said UNHCR.

Mr. Jamal noted that the pace of yields continues to rise, with nearly 100,000 people who crossed Pakistan in the first week of September only ” stretch our capacities and capacities of this country at the limit».

Reverberant replicas

Echoing these concerns, the United Nations Fund for Children (Unicef) warned that Afghanistan is still in shock from the 6.0 magnitude earthquake which hit the provinces of Kunar and Nangarhar on August 31, followed by several serious aftershocks.

At least 1,172 children died, more than half of the total number of deaths, said a representative of Unicef ​​country in Afghanistan, Dr. Tajudeen Oyewale.

Briefing journalists in Geneva via Videolink, Dr. Oyewale described by meeting the young victims of the Machkandol disaster in Nangahar, three girls and a young boy saved in emergency.

“For girls, it was even more thinking; They were lost; They lost their family, their homes were destroyed, “he said. “Family cattle have died. And for these young girls and this young boy, the future is completely dark. ”

The provinces affected by the earthquake are mountainous and extremely distant, continued the head of UNICEF.

Stuck earth roads

“It is filled with steep lands, difficult navigation … It took us about three and a half hours by car, of which 40 minutes on the paved road and the rest was through restless earth roads, many laps with vehicles coming in the opposite direction and especially rocks that fall on the road.”

Humanitarian workers warn that the earthquake has aggravated existing acute problems of Afghanistan.

In total, the crisis made more than 2,164 lives, at least 3,428 people were injured and at least 6,700 houses were destroyed or seriously damaged.

“Behind these figures are children who stand alone in the rubble and families torn in the blink of an eye … UNICEF literally has an additional effort and does everything you need to achieve these children and families with the support they need,” insisted Dr. Oyewale.

After more than two years of civil war, more than 25 million people are now hungry and At least 20 million require emergency health services.

The United Nations World Food Program (Wfp) also warned that families displaced in certain regions have not received no help for three months because it announced that For the first time, financing deficits forced her to withdraw support in areas where he does not have access.

“” The magnitude of needs in Sudan is so great that we must make difficult decisions about who receives help and who does not. These are heartbreaking decisions to make“Said WFP Leni Kinzli said in an urgent call for more international funding to help all people affected by more than two years of war.

Children are particularly vulnerable, have warned the humanitarian workers, with malnutrition “Roit”especially among young people and their mothers.

Education the last victim

According to the United Nations UNFPA Reproductive Health Agency, and partners Working in education, around 13 million of the 17 million young people who have stayed in Sudan are now outside school.

This includes seven million people registered but unable to take the courses due to the conflict or the trip – plus six million school children who have not registered for the school year.

Nevertheless, Unfpa said that since this month, 45% of schools in Sudan – almost 9,000 – have now reopenedquoting the Global education cluster that the groups 60 UN and NGO entities.

And although the situation in Sudan remains so disastrous, going back to school might not seem to be a priority, but help agencies insist that without this, the impact on young lives can be devastating, given the quantity of additional support which can be provided in schools, in addition to learning.

In schools, helped reopen by a partner without a partner, for example, additional support includes meals, safe water training, sanitation and teachers to help young people treat their trauma.

Pick up the parts

From November 2024 to July of this year, More than two million people have returned to their old houses Through Sudan, some 1,611 locations.

Most of these returnees reached Aj Jazirah (48%), Khartoum (30%), Sennar (nine percent), the blue Nile (seven percent) and the white Nile (five percent). The United Nations Migration Agency (Iom)) Travel monitoring matrix Note that only about one percent went to the Nile River and Western Darfur.

A Distribution of OI data Indicates that around 77% (or 1.5 million) returned from temporary houses inside Sudan, while 23% (around 455,000) returned from abroad.

This is a fraction of the more than 4.2 million refugees that crossed neighboring countries since the war broke out on April 15, 2023, between the Sudanese armed forces (SAF) and the paramilitary support forces (RSF).

Other key conclusions of the Sudanese movement OIM having an impact on the 18 states:

• When the war broke out, people were mainly uprooted from Khartoum (31%), southern Darfur (21%) and northern Darfur (20%).
• The highest proportion of internal displaced people was in southern Darfur (19%), northern Darfur (18%) and the Darfur center (10%).
• More than half (53%) of people fleeing violence would have been children.

Case study: Life is moving away

Among the young victims of the conflict, Aysha Jebrellah, 18 months old, was admitted for treatment for severe acute malnutrition at the Port Sudan pediatric hospital.

His mother, Aziza, was alongside her daughter while medical teams provide vital nutritional support and approach the medical complications that Aysha has suffered, linked to her condition.

Aziza was moved from her Khartoum family when the conflict broke out more than two years ago, first fled to Kassala, then moving to Port Sudan where she lives with relatives.

She described how her daughter had diarrhea and fever for about two weeks before being admitted to the hospital. At that time, she had stopped eating and seemed to go away before their eyes.

“When she refused to taste anything and continued to weaken, I was afraid of losing her,” said Aziza. “” Now I hope she will recover. “”

To meet health needs in Sudan, the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO)) The call of $ 135 million is just a fifth funded. “This is only a fraction of what is necessary urgently”, the agency said.
