BREAKING
Araghchi: Iran adopted a constructive approach in its engagement to ensure the European Union and the E3 fully honored their commitments and lifted all sanctions.
Araghchi: After a year of Iran’s full compliance with the agreement, it began implementing gradual, proportionate, and reversible compensatory steps in accordance with its recognized rights under the deal.
Araghchi: Iran demonstrated the utmost restraint in the face of repeated and fundamental violations and made extensive efforts to restore balance and preserve the agreement.
In his letter, Araghchi stated: The E3 failed to fulfill their obligations and instead imposed additional illegal sanctions on Iranian individuals and institutions.
Araghchi: These coercive measures constituted a grave violation of international law and the UN Charter, causing severe disruption in the implementation of the agreement.
Araghchi: Washington initially refrained from fulfilling its commitments, then withdrew from the agreement, reimposed its illegal and unilateral sanctions, and even expanded them.
Araghchi: UN Security Council Resolution 2231 has expired and fully ceased to be in effect as of today, in accordance with its explicit provisions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry: Reimposing sanctions on Iran is illegal
Occupied Palestine: Israeli occupation forces raid homes during a raid on the village of Al-Burj, south of al-Khalil
Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem: The movement remains committed to implementing the ceasefire agreement through the handover of another Israeli captive’s body earlier this evening

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) reported that over two million children in Yemen are facing acute malnourishment and are in need of urgent medical care.

#Malnutrition is robbing millions of children in #Yemen of their health & potential. With 2.2 mil children acutely malnourished & +540,000 suffering from severe acute #malnutrition, we must act urgently to provide the necessary #therapeutic care. pic.twitter.com/IdTM1iifGr

In June of last year, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that hunger in Yemen has reached its highest level since 2015, noting that "more than 19 million people are going hungry, including more than 160,000 on the verge of famine."

"Funding cuts are hampering our ability to help people in need. Last December, the World Food Programme was forced to reduce food rations for 8 million people due to funding gaps and had to introduce another round of cuts last month," the UN body indicated.

The UN's lack of funds in Yemen threatens to exacerbate the humanitarian crisis further in the country, particularly after the announcement of the Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Martin Griffiths, who said in late February that the UN succeeded in collecting a mere $1.2 billion as part of a UN plan requiring at least $4.3 billion that Yemen needs in 2023.

Thank you for 31 generous pledges announced today, totalling $1.2 billion for #Yemen.

Last year, we saw progress in the path for peace. This improved the daily lives of Yemenis and helped humanitarian access.

Peace is our principal hope for 2023.

— Martin Griffiths (@UNReliefChief) February 27, 2023
