Главные новости дня в ООН и в мире: удары по Чернигову, 2,8 млрд долларов на помощь в Газе и на Западном берегу, 800 женщин умирают при родах каждый день, роль молодежи в решении проблем безопасности в Средиземноморье.
Обстрелы Украины
Координатор ООН в Украине Дениз Браун осудила очередную волну ударов по всей стране, включая обстрелы Чернигова, в результате которых, по данным украинских властей, погибли и получили ранения мирные жители, в том числе дети. Кроме того, в ходе обстрелов были повреждены дома и больница. Гуманитарные работники помогают пострадавшим. В ООН подчеркивают, что в соответствии с международным гуманитарным правом гражданские лица и больницы должны быть защищены. Между тем на юге Украины межведомственная автоколонна сегодня доставила гуманитарную помощь в город Приморское Запорожской области.
Гуманитарный призыв
ООН и ее партнеры выступили с призывом выделить 2,8 миллиарда долларов для оказания помощи в Газе, а также на Западном берегу реки Иордан, где палестинцы подвергаются растущему уровню насилия со стороны поселенцев. Опубликованный в среду гуманитарный призыв предполагает поддержку 3,1 миллиона человек до конца года, в том числе оказание помощи 2,3 миллиона человек в секторе Газа. Анклаву, по оценкам экспертов, грозит массовый голод. Особенно плачевная ситуация складывается в его северных районах.
Доклад ЮНФПА
В области сексуального и репродуктивного здоровья были достигнуты значительные успехи, однако каждый день при родах по-прежнему умирают 800 женщин – эта цифра остается неизменной с 2016 года. Об этом говорится в новом докладе Фонда народонаселения ООН (ЮНФПА). Почти 500 из этих предотвратимых смертей ежедневно происходят в странах, переживающих гуманитарные кризисы и конфликты. Этнические меньшинства также сталкиваются с повышенными рисками, связанными с беременностью и родами. По оценкам авторов доклада, дополнительные инвестиции в размере 79 миллиардов долларов могут спасти миллион жизней.
Молодежь в Средиземноморье
Инвестиции в молодых людей – это инвестиции в мир. Об этом в среду заявила заместитель Генерального секретаря по политическим вопросам Розмари Дикарло на заседании Совбеза ООН, которое было посвящено роли молодежи в решении проблем безопасности в Средиземноморье. В странах Южного и Восточного Средиземноморья молодежь составляет 55 процентов населения, отметила она. По мнению Дикарло, необходимо конструктивное участие нового поколения в инициативах в области мира и безопасности в регионе и за его пределами.

Do 800 women really die every day during childbirth? Can this be prevented?

However, with proper medical care, education, and access to maternal healthcare services, many of these deaths can be prevented. It is crucial to invest in maternal health programs and ensure that women receive the necessary support and resources for a safe pregnancy and delivery.
