The EU is engaged to support & coordinate the global response to Ebola. I co-chaired a meeting with @WHO @AfricaCDC & African Ministers and partners to align our response. Cooperation, humanitarian access & swift action are essential to save lives & strengthen health security.

The lyceum in Mykhailo-Kotsiubynske was damaged in 2022 and rebuilt with EU & @FCA_global support so children could keep learning. Last night, four Russian drones struck it again. Russia continues to target civilian infrastructure and put children's futures at risk.

For many girls in Myanmar, the cost of sanitary pads can mean missing school. With EU support, @UNICEF is providing reusable pads and hygiene education. 💙

When she was younger, Leen thought strange metal objects she found outside were toys. With EU funding, @sardngo and @Welthungerhilfe are delivering child-friendly awareness sessions that teach children how to recognise explosive hazards and stay safe. 🧵 2/3

For 10-year-old Leen, returning home to northwest Syria meant going back to school and playing with friends. But it also meant living with a hidden danger: landmines and unexploded ordnance left behind by years of conflict. 🧵 1/3
