UNHCR: core principles of refugee protection being put to test. We mustn’t let #COVID response regress on human rights + refugee protection. People forced to flee conflict should not be denied safety and protection on the pretext of responding to the virus https://t.co/COGtB9PbzZ

Years of conflict, insecurity, destruction, economic devastation, displacement, famine-like conditions, cholera, coronavirus and floods. How much #Yemen and its people have endured... This is heartbreaking https://t.co/xUrlJtc5c7

Refugee children’s lives have been disrupted by violence, displacement and now a pandemic. #Coronavirus risks reversing hard-won gains that had been made for refugee children in expanding access to protection, healthcare and education. https://t.co/iYNFyEP2Ap

#Coronavirus is inducing a massive protection crisis for displaced women and girls. Confinement policies, lockdowns and quarantines coupled with worsening socio-economic conditions are increasing risks of violence and limiting their options for help: https://t.co/5OXJWYeQYA https://t.co/UBcmC9r6Sd

Great news this weekend. These children - most of whom are under 14 years of age, who fled from crisis hit Syria and Afghanistan as well as Iraq and Eritrea - now not only have the chance of a new life but most importantly safety and protection. ?? ? ? https://t.co/tZ75gv1K1Z

Globally there are 41m people displaced by conflict in their own countries. COVID is placing them at great risk. On the 22nd anniversary of the Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement, this key intl framework remains critical for their protection. https://t.co/TH2NcOrcCS
