Check out this amazing video of the Shalva Band performing the @GreatestShowman's "A Million Dreams" at @Eurovision:
Meet Shalva. They’re one the most beloved musical acts in Israel. And it’s not because they inspire us to think differently about challenges and acceptance. We love them for one simple reason - they make incredible music! #DareToDream #Eurovision

Next week will mark International #HolocaustRemembranceDay. Fanny Ben-Ami, a Holocaust survivor, will share her testimony at @UNGeneva's ceremony, so that her memories and those of all other victims of the Holocaust can be kept alive for generations to come! @yadvashem
"Racism and antisemitism have no place in our modern times." As we are preparing to commemorate the 76th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz next week, these words of a #Holocaust survivor resonate as strong as ever. #HolocaustRemembranceDay

In its #UPR37 session, #Lebanon used its time addressing human rights issues to defend #Hezbollah. This group is recognised by the US, the Netherlands, the UK, Germany and many more as a #terrorist organisation. How can someone defend its actions? Cc: @UNJanKubis
This is what I said about #Lebanon during its peer-review today #UPR: #Hezbollah has tightened its grip on Lebanon. It ❌uses Lebanese civilians as human shields ❌recruits children as young as 11 to fight in Syria ❌uses excessive force agst protesters 📃bit.ly/35PeED3

#Iran is stepping up uranium enrichment to 20%, closer than ever to bomb-grade material. The regime's race to nuclear weapons must be stopped! The International community must maintain sanctions!
