I'm sad to hear that my former colleague, dear Raffaella, suddenly passed away. She was full of energy and only wanted good for the people of Afghanistan, especially women and girls. She will be missed.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our former Head of Delegation, @RaffaellaIodic2.
She was a true friend of Afghanistan, a champion of women & girls, and a beloved colleague to many.
Our delegation is in deep shock & mourning
May her memory be a blessing

Am Welttag gegen Todesstrafe gedenken wir der Menschen, die zu Tode verurteilt & hingerichtet werden. Unabhängig von der Anklage steht fest: es ist eine grausame & unmenschliche Bestrafung, daher setzen wir uns für die Abschaffung der Todesstrafe ein! auswaertiges-amt.de/de/newsr…

As #Afghanistan's new school year begins, it is now more than 900 days since girls aged 12 have been barred from attending school & university.
UNAMA urges the de facto authorities to end this unjustifiable and damaging ban.
Education for all is essential for peace & prosperity.

د یوناما مرستیال @PotzelMarkus او @UnhcrZulu ننګرهار څخه لیدنه وکړه ترڅو د پاکستان څخه د راغلو افغانانو لپاره د @Refugees لخوا چمتو شوي مرستې وګوري.د نغدي پیسې او د UNHCR په مرسته د ښوونځیو او کلینیکونو د خدماتو چمتو کول شامل دي، دا خلکو سره مرسته کوي چې بیرته په خپلو پښو ودریږي.
