In Ukraine during July 2025, the highest number of civilian casualties in over 3 years of conflict was reported, as per the United Nations.
In a critical moment for the humanitarian community, Tom Fletcher, the United Nations Emergency Relief Coordinator (ERC), has highlighted the underfunding, overstretching, and attacks on the global humanitarian system.
As the United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Fletcher's concerns are a stark reminder of the challenges faced by humanitarian workers around the world.
The year 2024 was the deadliest on record for humanitarian workers, with over 380 fatalities. Unfortunately, 2025 is on track to surpass this grim statistic, underscoring the urgent need for action.
However, details about the specific challenges or issues facing the humanitarian community in 2025, or plans to address the current situation, were not provided.
Fletcher emphasised that this year's World Humanitarian Day is of particular importance in light of these challenges. Yet, no details about the theme or focus of this year's World Humanitarian Day were disclosed.
