Ending violence against #women is one of the top priorities of Israel, one we are strongly advocating for @UNGeneva. Events such as this powerful 'She's Gone' exhibition ⬇️ contribute to this crucial goal. #16Days
Today at @IsraelMFA, an event was held marking the Intl day for the #EliminationofViolenceAgainstWomen, with the art installation project 'She’s gone'.
We're committed to continue working hard around the world to raise awareness & battle this awful phenomenon. #orangetheworld

Last week, residents of the south of Israel were targeted by more than 450+ rockets sent from Gaza by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
This Ambassadors' visit ⬇️ will surely be an eye-opener.
Days after south Israel was attacked with hundreds of rockets from Gaza, I and @BnaiBrith brought int’l Ambassadors to UN in Geneva to meet local residents-and see remarkable continued aid to Gazans. Heard from 🇮🇱 civilians of their ongoing plight, but also their hope for #peace.
#UPDATE The study tour in Israel of Geneva-based Ambassadors to the #UN continues. #HumanRights #disability #HRC ⬇️⬇️
From the first time I came to 🇮🇱@Shalva_Center for the Care and Inclusion of persons with #disabilities, years ago, I was so moved. I decided that I will bring my colleagues, in whichever capacity, from all over the world, to see this amazing place.

Visiting @KnessetIL (Israel's Parliament) is a must for any official delegation travelling to Israel. We are glad that the delegation of Ambassadors to the UN could hold meetings there, in the heart of our strong and vibrant #democracy.

FM @Israel_katz in a message to the Iranian people: We are your friends, two peoples with a long history and a tradition of incredible cooperation. I hope those days return. Your regime is oppressing you, as well as protestors in Iraq and elsewhere in the region (1/2)

#WorldToiletDay 2019: ‘Leaving no one behind’
How come that more than half of the global population still lack access to safe sanitation? What must be done to leave no one behind, and make sure there are #Toilets4All by 2030?

Israel appreciates the Trump administration's latest step.
The policy reflects a historical truth. It is time to understand that peace will be established not by denying historical truths but by recognizing truths, mutual recognition and compromise.
Prime Minister's Office:
Today, the United States adopted an important policy that rights a historical wrong when the Trump administration clearly rejected the false claim that Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria are inherently illegal under international law.

Together with @BnaiBrith we have prepared a diverse and intensive program.
Today's highlight: meeting with 🇮🇱 @PresidentRuvi.
With ambassadors to UN institutions at Geneva today. 72 years ago, 2/3 of the members of the UN understood it is our natural right to establish a state. Unfortunately the UN now, particularly the Human Rights Council, is too often unfairly used for political purposes

Combatting sexual abuse of children is a key priority for Israel. We have shared several best practices, such as this video, which is included in an awareness-raising program to educate children to seek help and to report abuses.

❌Every second, 7 children are being sexually abused across the world! 270 million each year.
📢Together with 🇪🇺🇺🇾, we have decided to emphasize the importance of preventive measures in fighting this gross violation of children's rights.
We will soon share a summary of the talk.

The events of this week offer a stark reminder of how #Israel steadfastly abides by the principles of distinction and proportionality in its counter terrorism operations, while #Gaza terror groups act in utter violation of the most basic #IHL standards
👁👇THIS IS a part of a rocket which was launched from #Gaza today, and landed in a #kindergarten's playground in Netivot🇮🇱, luckily causing no injuries.
THIS IS the sick reality for children living in southern Israel, under the threat of Palestinian terror.

🤚YOU, who is reading this tweet:
PAUSE for 1 minute, and try to grasp the reality behind these numbers.
Thank you 🇮🇱
Since yesterday, #Gaza terrorists have launched 220+ rockets at Israeli civilians, targeting 110+ cities, towns & communities across 🇮🇱.
These ⬇ are just some of them.
Even under these difficult circumstances, Israelis continue to stand strong. We will NOT give in to terror.

Once every 7 and a half minutes.
That's how often the Islamic Jihad has been launching rockets at Israeli towns and cities from #Gaza over the last 27 hours.
