The flags of the following five newly-elected Member States of the UN Security Council (for 2025-2026) will be installed: Denmark, Greece, Pakistan, Panama, Somalia. The Security Council today (2 Jan) welcomed Denmark, Greece, Pakistan, Panama and Somalia as the five new non-permanent members for the 2025 -2026 period. At a flag installation ceremony for the newly elected Members, Denmark’s Ambassador Christina Markus said, “the world is marked by profound uncertainties, raging conflicts, climate disasters and humanitarian crises,” adding that “there's plenty of work to be done, and our commitment to it must be steadfast.” Greece’s Ambassador Evangelos Sekeris said his country “looks forward to acting as a stabilising factor, serving as a bridge between the north of the south, the east and the west, while contributing to restoring the true meaning of the principle of the peaceful resolution of disputes.” Pakistan’s Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad said, “cooperative multilateralism with the UN at its core is the best way of tackling the multifaceted challenges of today,” and stressed that “we need to earnestly address the root causes of long-outstanding as well as new conflicts, prioritise dialogue and diplomacy, and support confidence building at regional and global levels to reduce tensions, to reverse the arms race and enable an environment conducive for peace, stability and development.” Panama’s Ambassador Eloy Alfaro de Alba said, “the Security Council played a crucial role in our national history when it held a formal meeting for the second time out of its headquarters in Panama City in 1973, under the able stewardship of our then ambassador to the United Nations, Aquilino Boyd.” Somalia’s Ambassador Abukar Dahir Osman for his part said, “as a proud member State of African Union, the Arab League and Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, we are profoundly conscious of the sacred trust placed in our nation and the weight of responsibility that accompany this mandate.” The five newly elected countries will join Algeria, Guyana, the Republic of Korea, Sierra Leone, and Slovenia as non-permanent members of the Council.

Noon briefing by Farhan Haq, Deputy Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: - Occupied Palestinian Territory - United States - Resident Coordinator - Mongolia - Briefing Occupied Palestinian Territory The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs warn that civilians are not safe anywhere in the Gaza Strip. Yesterday, the Israeli military once again ordered the evacuation of large areas within Gaza, citing rocket fire into Israel. OCHA’s initial analysis indicates that the new orders cover about three square kilometres in North Gaza and Deir al Balah governorates. Since then, strikes were reported in Al Mawasi area, where people had been ordered to move and take shelter. UNRWA’s Commissioner-General, Philippe Lazzarini, has issued a statement saying that this is another reminder that there is no “humanitarian zone,” let alone a “safe zone.” He warned that every day without a ceasefire will bring more tragedy. Over 80 per cent of the Gaza Strip is under unrevoked Israeli evacuation orders. In this situation, OCHA warns that the ability of humanitarian organizations to support people in need across Gaza is further diminishing. December saw some of the toughest restrictions on humanitarian movement ever recorded. This includes blocking access to border areas for collecting supplies and denying attempts to deliver goods and services or assess needs across Gaza. Overall, 39 per cent of UN attempts to move aid workers anywhere in Gaza were denied by the Israeli authorities, with another 18 per cent disrupted on the ground or hindered. For the besieged areas in North Gaza governorate, access has been denied for 88 consecutive days; that is since 6 October 2024. Turning to the West Bank, we have an assessment carried out by OCHA, UNRWA and humanitarian partners in the aftermath of the operation that Israeli forces carried out in Tulkarm and Nur Shams refugee camps last week, on 24 and 25 December. The UN teams visited the area on Tuesday. They estimate that over 1,000 housing units and about 100 shops were damaged from explosions or bulldozing. Over 20 families comprising more than 90 people were displaced. Damage to infrastructure disrupted electricity, water and sewage networks. In response, OCHA has mobilized humanitarian action by the partners, who are already trucking water to people. The teams also expect to install new water tanks, vacuum sewage and distribute hygiene kits and emergency cash. United States In a statement we issued last night, the Secretary-General strongly condemned the attack in New Orleans, where a driver struck a crowd gathered to celebrate the New Year, reportedly killing at least 15 people and injuring over 30 others. He extends his condolences to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives and to the Government and people of Louisiana and the United States. He also wishes a swift recovery to the persons injured. Full Highlights: https://www.un.org/sg/en/content/ossg/noon-briefing-highlight?date%5Bvalue%5D%5Bdate%5D=02%20January%202025

Play Video: Middle East: Escalation Threatens Regional Stability & Civilians | Briefing | United Nations

Briefing by Khaled Khiari, Assistant Secretary-General for Middle East, Asia, and the Pacific in the Departments of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs and Peace Operations, on threats to international peace and security - Security Council, 9829th meeting. "Madam President [US Permanent Representative Linda Thomas-Greenfield], Distinguished members of the Security Council, The Middle East is witnessing yet another dangerous escalation. The hostilities unfolding between Israel and the Houthis have taken an escalatory turn over the past weeks. The most recent round of military escalation follows a year of increasing Houthi attacks targeting Israel as well as vessels in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden that threaten civilians, regional stability and freedom of maritime navigation. Madam President, Since 13 December, the Houthis have claimed at least 11 attacks targeting Israel, using ballistic missiles and uncrewed aerial vehicles. On 19 December, Israel conducted airstrikes that targeted energy and port infrastructure in the Houthi-controlled ports of Hudaydah, Salif and Ra’s Isa as well as Sana’a. The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) claimed it was hitting military targets. Nine civilians were reportedly killed, and considerable damage occurred to the Red Sea ports that has reduced their capacity. Israel also struck two power stations in Sanhan and Al Wahdah districts of Sana’a, causing temporary power disruptions in Sana’a and Hudaydah. While many missiles and other projectiles fired by the Houthis from Yemen have been intercepted, on 20 December, a Houthi-fired missile warhead damaged an elementary school in Ramat Gan in central Israel. On 21 December, another missile landed in a residential neighbourhood in Jaffa, causing damage to nearby homes. Sixteen civilian injuries were reported in the latter incident, including a 3-year-old child. On 26 December, IDF airstrikes targeted Sana’a International Airport, the Red Sea ports on Yemen’s western coast in addition to power stations in Sana’a and Hudaydah, which the IDF said were being used for military purposes. The risks of disruption to vital humanitarian operations at a time when millions of people in Yemen are in need of life-saving assistance are of grave concern. The IDF’s 26 December strikes on Yemen have reportedly resulted in at least six killed and dozens injured. A United Nations Humanitarian Air Service crew member was also injured when the airport was hit. A high-level UN delegation, headed by WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, was also at the airport in Sana’a when it was struck. The delegation had just concluded discussions on the humanitarian situation in Yemen and the release of UN and other personnel detained by the Houthis. The United Nations continues to call for the immediate and unconditional release of all UN and other personnel arbitrarily detained by the Houthis. Madam President, I reiterate the Secretary-General’s grave concern about intensified escalation. I also echo his calls that international law, including humanitarian law as applicable, must be respected by all parties. We appeal to all to respect and protect civilians and civilian infrastructure. Humanitarian workers must be protected at all times. Madam President, We condemn attacks claimed by the Houthis, including on the Santa Ursula in the Arabian Sea on 27 December. The US forces targeted Houthi military facilities and weapons systems in Yemen on 16 and 21 December reportedly in response to Houthi maritime attacks. There have also been unconfirmed reports of airstrikes on 27, 28 and 29 December in different parts of Yemen. We reiterate that attacks originating from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen must stop. Security Council Resolution 2722 (2024) must be fully respected in its entirety, which demands that all attacks in the Red Sea must cease. No cause or grievance can justify continuation of these attacks. Attacks in Israel and Yemen, as well as in the Red Sea, are of grave concern. Further military escalation could jeopardize regional stability, with adverse political, security, economic and humanitarian repercussions. Millions in Yemen, Israel and throughout the region would continue to bear the brunt of escalation with no end. We must do our utmost to reverse this negative trajectory and support comprehensive efforts to end conflicts in the Middle East. We must preserve a path toward sustainable peace and stability that benefits all the peoples of the region. Thank you, Madam President".

Noon briefing by Florencia Soto Nino-Martinez, Associate Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: - Secretary-General’s Message for New Year - Yemen/Israel - Occupied Palestinian Territory - Syria - Syria/Humanitarian - Lebanon - Mozambique - Republic of Korea - James Earl “Jimmy” Carter, Jr - Financial Contribution Secretary-General’s Message for New Year The Secretary-General said that throughout 2024, hope has been hard to find. Wars are causing enormous pain, suffering and displacement. Inequalities and divisions are rife — fueling tensions and mistrust. The Secretary-General also reported that we have just endured a decade of deadly heat, with the top ten 10 hottest years on record. This is climate breakdown — in real time, he said. We must exit this road to ruin — and we have no time to lose, he stressed, adding that even in the darkest days, he has seen hope power change. There are no guarantees for what’s ahead in 2025, he said, and pledged to stand with all those who are working to forge a more peaceful, equal, stable and healthy future for all people. Yemen/Israel This morning, Assistant Secretary-General for the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific, Khaled Khiari, briefed the Security Council about the hostilities between Israel and the Houthis which have taken an escalatory turn over the past weeks. Mr. Khiari reiterated the Secretary-General’s grave concern about the intensified escalation and echoed his calls that international law, including humanitarian law as applicable, must be respected by all parties. He also appealed to all to respect and protect civilians and civilian infrastructure. Mr. Khiari warned that further military escalation could jeopardize regional stability, with adverse political, security, economic and humanitarian repercussions. Occupied Palestinian Territory Turning to the situation in the Gaza Strip, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs warns that the very means of people’s survival are being dismantled. This includes an onslaught on health care, emergency services and humanitarian access alongside relentless attacks that kill and maim civilians by the hour. The Director-General of the World Health Organization, Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, where said that Kamal Adwan Hospital of North Gaza is now out of service. He said that this follows the raid, forced patient and staff evacuation and the detention of the facility’s director on Friday. Yesterday, OCHA, WHO, the World Food Programme, the Palestine Red Crescent Society, and the UN Department for Safety and Security, delivered basic medical and hygiene supplies, food and water to critical patients, caregivers and staff who were evacuated from Kamal Adwan to the Indonesian hospital in North Gaza that is non-functional. OCHA said that ten patients were evacuated from the hospital, four of whom were arrested by Israeli forces at the checkpoint leaving the area. Seven patients along with 15 caregivers and health workers remain at the facility, which is severely damaged and has no ability to provide medical care. The team reported that the hospital has no water, electricity or sanitation. Yesterday’s mission to North Gaza was exceptional because most of our attempts – over 150 since October – have been denied by the Israeli authorities. Even the few that were initially agreed to have faced heavy impediments. Between Friday and Sunday, three of the four attempts to access the area were denied by Israeli authorities. Only this one was let through but faced major impediments. OCHA emphasizes that it should not require breaking a siege to help survivors in critical need. Aid workers must be granted safe and unhindered access to assist people wherever they are. Armed looting also continues. Two incidents recorded over the past three days in southern Gaza have affected dozens of truckloads of supplies and further exposed drivers to serious risks. Meanwhile, fighting and Israeli restrictions on commercial and other imports also persist. And these continue to dangerously paralyze the humanitarian operation, at a time when families urgently need more food, shelter materials, and clothing to survive the bad weather.

Russian gas has stopped flowing to EU states via Ukraine after a five-year deal expired, marking the end of a decades-long arrangement. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that his country would not allow Russia to "earn additional billions on our blood". Poland's government meanwhile said the cut-off was "another victory" against Moscow. The European Commission said the EU had prepared for the change and most states could cope. Moldova, which is not in the EU, is already suffering shortages. Russia can still send gas to Hungary, Turkey and Serbia through the TurkStream pipeline across the Black Sea.

Play Video: Vast dinosaur footprints found in quarry date back 166 million years | BBC News

About 200 huge footprints, left by vast dinosaurs in the Jurassic period 166 million years ago, have been found in a limestone quarry in Oxfordshire in England. They reveal the comings and goings of two different types of dinosaurs that are thought to be a long-necked sauropod called Cetiosaurus and the smaller meat-eating Megalosaurus. The longest trackways are 150m in length, but they could extend much further as only part of the quarry has been excavated. The tracks were first spotted by Gary Johnson, a worker at Dewars Farm Quarry, while he was driving a digger. "I was basically clearing the clay, and I hit a hump, and I thought it's just an abnormality in the ground," he said, pointing to a ridge where some mud has been pushed up as a dinosaur's foot pressed down into the earth.
