The true scale of the horror unfolding in Iran this past week, carried out by the regime, is beyond what anyone could imagine. We need help. #IranMassacre
The world would benefit if Iran was turned from being a nuclear threat and an exporter of violence across the Middle East into a tolerant, stable trading power—but protests alone don’t end tyranny economist.com/leaders/2026/0…

🚨 No one should be caught off guard by a flood. At @WMO Stories on Water, I stressed that #flood warnings must be clear, personal & actionable to save lives. ⚠️ "Warnings must move beyond alerts to become actionable guidance." 🌊 Watch my 8-min talk: bit.ly/41eYtMl

Just few days ago at the @CopernicusEMS #EFAS Meeting, the life-saving role of #EarlyWarnings was stressed. The recent #floods in #Valencia show why we need stronger, more personal alerts to keep communities safe. We can’t let another #DANA become a disaster. #EW4All #Resilience
This year's #EFAS Annual Meeting @SMHI united 130 participants to discuss Europe’s #flood events and the impact of #EarlyWarnings in #DisasterRiskReduction. We remain dedicated to hydrological forecasting to protect communities & strengthen resilience. #EW4All #HEPEX #StormBoris
