United Nations Video: Haiti: Over one million people displaced - Press Conference | United Nations

Play Video: Haiti: Over one million people displaced - Press Conference | United Nations

Press conference by Amy Pope, Director General of then International Organization for Migration (IOM), on her visit to Haiti. -------------------------- The head of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) warned that escalating violence and funding shortfalls are crippling humanitarian efforts in Haiti, where over one million people are now displaced - triple the number from just a year ago. “It is incredibly difficult to get to the people who are most in need,” said IOM Director General Amy Pope at a press briefing in New York today (Apr 16). “The capital city of Haiti, Port-au-Prince, is 85 percent occupied by gangs. It is impossible for people to go in and out of the capital city safely by road, even for humanitarian workers and the diplomats who work in the capital.” Gang control over vast areas of the capital has forced families to flee repeatedly, leaving many without access to shelter, clean water, or medical care. “I had the chance to see some of the humanitarian sites… and you just see thousands of people who are stacked one on top of the other in very, very tight quarters,” Pope said. The crisis is compounded by deportations. Nearly 200,000 Haitians were returned from neighboring countries last year, placing additional strain on already overwhelmed services and infrastructure. “Like every other UN agency, we are navigating a complex situation - not just of access, but also of financing,” Pope noted. “Many of our partners have lost funding altogether… and of course, they were not able to meet all of the humanitarian needs that existed even before these most recent funding cuts.” Pope said IOM staff have been directly affected by the violence. “We ourselves have had staff who've been kidnapped, staff who have had to be evacuated, [and] otherwise been significantly impacted by the situation,” Pope said. With resources dwindling, IOM has undertaken internal reforms to sustain critical operations. “We moved very, very fast to localize staff closer to where our operational capacity is ongoing… and we have made a number of tough decisions to make sure that we're really focused on core IOM activities,” concluded Pope.

Noon Briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: Deputy Secretary-General Permanent Forum on People of African Descent Sudan Democratic Republic of the Congo South Sudan Occupied Palestinian Territory Ukraine Security Council Mediterranean Chinese Language Day Noon Briefing Guest Financial Contribution DEPUTY SECRETARY-GENERAL The Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed today took part in the second day of the Partnership for Growth Summit in Viet Nam. She joined a Business Dialogue with Leaders focused on public–private partnerships for innovation and sustainability. Ms. Mohammed also met with Lương Cường, the State President of Viet Nam. They discussed UN–Viet Nam cooperation on the acceleration of the Sustainable Development Goals. They also discussed peacekeeping and climate action. On the margins of the Summit, Ms. Mohammed also met with the Prime Minister of Viet Nam, Phạm Minh Chính, and Nguyễn Hoàng Long, the Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade. Their discussions centered on Viet Nam’s green and digital transformation, as well as economic diversification. The Deputy Secretary-General also visited an electric vehicle factory in Hai Phong, where she saw first-hand how manufacturing is attracting investment, creating skilled jobs, and advancing Viet Nam’s path toward a zero-emission future. And over the next two days the Deputy Secretary-General will chair the annual retreat of UN Resident Coordinators in the Asia and the Pacific region. The discussions will focus on accelerating SDG implementation across the region and mobilizing investments around key transitions. She will be back in New York on Sunday. SUDAN The World Food Programme (WFP) today said that one of its teams has successfully arrived today in greater Khartoum, where they are coordinating with local authorities to scale up assistance in Khartoum. WFP aims to expand aid deliveries to nearly one million people over the coming month. WFP also said that a convoy with 14 trucks carrying over 280 metric tonnes of food and nutrition supplies has arrived in Jabal Awlia, which is south of Khartoum, and that arrival took place this morning. This area is one of the areas that is at high risk of famine, so the delivery is well needed. These are the first aid deliveries into Jabal Awlia since last December. These first aid convoys are carrying assistance for around 23,000 people and additional trucks are en route. The convoy is just one of many planned aid deliveries into the greater Khartoum metropolitan area over the coming weeks. Yesterday, we and our humanitarian partners delivered 1,700 metric tonnes of emergency food in Tawila in North Darfur state. Also yesterday, a local partner launched a water trucking initiative to support 10,000 newly displaced human beings with clean water in the area of El Fasher. Meanwhile, cross-border and crossline aid deliveries continue. During the month of March, 156 trucks carrying over 5,600 metric tonnes of assistance entered Sudan via the Adre crossing from Chad, while 146 trucks transported more than 4,000 metric tonnes of aid in other parts of the country. However, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says that humanitarian access is severely undermined by delays in visa approvals for humanitarian personnel. Only 16 per cent of visa applications were approved in March – an alarming drop from previous months, which was around 50 per cent. All of that can seriously affect life-saving operations if the trend continues downwards. All this aid is crucial to help the vulnerable communities, and our humanitarian colleagues are telling us that aid organizations are working hard to meet urgent needs. As we have flagged this week, more than 400,000 people had to flee violence – most of them from Zamzam camp. The majority have fled to the towns of El Fasher and Tawila, where host communities are already under immense strain. And just a reminder that access to Zamzam remains completely blocked. Local authorities and partners' reports indicate that armed groups continue to shell El Fasher and surrounding areas, including Abu Shouk camp, which is obviously placing all of the civilians there at immense risk. The UN continues to call for the immediate cessation of hostilities in Sudan and urge all parties to uphold their obligations under international humanitarian law, ensure the protection of civilians, and allow safe and unhindered humanitarian access.

Hamas has formally rejected Israel's latest ceasefire offer, saying it is prepared to immediately negotiate a deal that would see the release of all remaining hostages in return for an end to the war and the release of Palestinian prisoners. In a video statement, Hamas's chief negotiator, Khalil al-Hayya, said: "We will not accept partial deals that serve [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu's political agenda." Fifty-nine hostages remain in captivity and 24 are thought to be alive. Israel's latest offer involved a 45-day ceasefire in return for the release of 10 hostages. Far-right Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said it was time "to open the gates of hell" on Hamas.
