UN Special Representative in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) Bintou Keita reported that despite multiple international calls for a ceasefire and an end to the offensives, the M23, supported by the Rwandan army, has continued its advance in the North Kivu and South Kivu provinces, with “devastating consequences.” UNIFEED
Addressing the Security Council today (19 Feb) Keita said, “This advance has had devastating consequences, leading to the loss of many lives during the takeover of Goma.”
She continued, “In two weeks, the Congo River Alliance, of which the M23 is a key component, has established a parallel administration in Goma, appointing a governor and a mayor. In South Kivu, the M23 seized Kavumu airport and the city of Bukavu, the provincial capital, on February 16. Since then, the M23 has continued its advance and took control of the city of Kamanyola yesterday.”
She highlighted, “The essential MONUSCO infrastructure in Goma and other locations in North Kivu is under extreme pressure. These facilities are sheltering people who have sought refuge there for protection under the Mission, in accordance with international humanitarian law. However, these installations were never designed or equipped to accommodate many people for an extended period. The situation is even more critical as sanitary and hygiene conditions are rapidly deteriorating, posing a risk to both those seeking protection and MONUSCO personnel. This issue is also fueling disinformation and is being used to amplify anti-MONUSCO sentiments.”
She added, “The human rights situation in North and South Kivu has significantly deteriorated. In addition to deaths resulting from clashes between the M23 and the DRC security forces, MONUSCO has also documented cases of forced recruitment.”

Briefing the Security Council, UN chief of political affairs Rosemary DiCarlo said, “The fragile stability in Libya is increasingly at risk. The country’s leaders and security actors are failing to put the national interest ahead of their competition for political and personal gain.”
The ongoing delay of Libya’s national elections, which were supposed to take place in December 2021, has deepened the country’s political deadlock. Today (Feb 19) DiCarlo noted progress on the electoral front, highlighting that “following successful local elections in 56 municipalities in November 2024, the High National Elections Commission has begun preparations for the next group of 63 municipal council elections.” She said the nomination phase had concluded with over 4,900 candidates, including 1,345 women.
However, violence remains a significant concern. DiCarlo condemned a recent attack on a government official, saying, “On 12 February, the Minister of State for Cabinet Affairs, Mr. Adel Juma, was injured in an armed attack on his car in Tripoli. We call for a full and transparent investigation to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice.”
Human rights abuses continue to escalate, particularly against migrants and asylum seekers. DiCarlo warned that many face “serious human rights violations across Libya, including torture and cruel and inhumane treatment.” She described recent discoveries of mass graves, “On 7 February, a mass grave was discovered on a farm in Jikharra in northeastern Libya and a day later another mass grave in Al-Kufra in the southeast. To date, 93 bodies have been exhumed in Jikharra and Al-Kufra district.”
Calling for accountability, DiCarlo urged authorities to launch a “full and independent investigation” into the mass graves.
Taher El Sonni of Libya attributed lack of judicial progress in his country “to direct or indirect foreign interference.” He said, “My country has become a ground for settlement of disputes.” Sonni also welcomed a round of the municipal elections in the country. “This was a demonstration, a good example as to Libya’s ability to ensure electoral processes where there is support and a political will,” he noted.

Join us to celebrate International Women’s Day under the theme, “For ALL women and girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment.”
This commemoration brings together a diverse range of speakers and performers drawn from the worlds of activism, entertainment, arts, sport and human rights: women across these disciplines share similar paths of resilience and success that have paved the way for all women and girls and inspired new generations.
Leaders from the UN system, government, private sector and philanthropy will affirm the enduring impact of the Fourth UN World Conference on Women in 1995, and the essential role the Beijing Declaration continues to play.
Finally, and centrally, the vision for the Day is empowering the next generation—youth, particularly young women and adolescent girls—as catalysts for lasting change.
This year’s theme calls for action that can unlock equal rights, power and opportunities for all and a feminist future where no one is left behind. Central to this vision is empowering the next generation—youth, particularly young women and adolescent girls—as catalysts for lasting change.
Under the banner of UN Women’s global campaign to mark the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, “For ALL Women and Girls”, this year’s International Women’s Day is a rallying cry to take action in three key areas:
Advance women’s and girls’ rights: Fight relentlessly for women’s and girls’ full range of human rights, challenging all forms of violence, discrimination, and exploitation.
Promote gender equality: Address systemic barriers, dismantle patriarchy, transform entrenched inequities, and elevate the voices of marginalized women and girls, including young people, to ensure inclusivity and empowerment.
Foster empowerment: Redefine power structures by ensuring inclusive access to education, employment, leadership, and decision-making spaces. Prioritize opportunities for young women and girls to lead and innovate.
Despite significant progress for women’s rights since the adoption of the Beijing Platform for Action in 1995, the world is experiencing new and overlapping crises and the erosion of rights. This International Women’s Day, join UN Women to march forward for women’s rights. The world cannot afford a step back.

OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY
The World Health Organization and UNICEF say that the emergency polio outbreak response in the Gaza Strip is continuing, with a mass vaccination campaign scheduled to begin on Saturday and continue until 26 February. The novel oral polio vaccine type 2 will be administered to more than 591,000 children under 10 years of age to protect them from polio. The campaign aims to reach all children under 10 – including those previously missed – to close immunity gaps and end the outbreak.
Meanwhile, partners supporting water, sanitation and hygiene services are working to increase the production and distribution of water for drinking and domestic purposes to improve living conditions in the Strip and minimize public health risks.
There are now more than 1,780 operational water points across Gaza. Over 85 per cent of them are used to support water trucking activities by UN partners.
The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reports that UN partners are also training and deploying mobile teams and volunteers at aid distribution points to ensure that vulnerable groups – including people with disabilities – have safe and dignified access to humanitarian assistance. More than 100 such teams are operating at nearly 70 aid distribution points throughout Gaza.
Turning to the West Bank, OCHA says that Israeli forces’ operations in northern areas continue, causing further destruction and displacement among Palestinian residents.
Yesterday, in Tulkarm refugee camp, Israeli forces demolished at least five homes, with several others also slated for demolition.

How long does it take to get to the Moon? Mars? Jupiter? The answer is: it depends — and speed is only one factor. Travel times also depend on distance, fuel, physics and clever trajectory planning. From quick trips to the Moon to years-long voyages to the outer planets, every mission follows a unique path. Watch as a NASA scientist breaks down what it really takes to travel through space.
