Hut ab, Raphael Haaser zu dieser sensationellen Fahrt im zweiten Durchgang und damit zu Gold 🥇 im WM-Riesentorlauf von #Saalbach! Wenn’s laft, dann laft’s! sn.at/sport/wintersport/ski-…

Sensation in Saalbach: Raphael Haaser siegt im Riesentorlauf - von der Ersatzbank zu Gold

Der große Schweiger Raphael Haaser wandelt in Saalbach auf den Spuren des Schweigers Rudi Nierlich und wird sensationell Riesentorlauf-Weltmeister. Dabei war sein Antreten lange unklar.

Happening now: UN SG @antonioguterres presents priorities for 2025. Expect a mix of concern and hope: While challenges have grown, the UN remains the only effective global actor to implement solutions. Growing isolationism & unilateralism can’t replace UN expertise & capabilities

UNIFIL is supporting the @LebarmyOfficial's redeployment in southwest Lebanon after the withdrawal of Israeli forces, including clearing unexploded weapons and debris. Peacekeepers are committed to supporting the cessation of hostilities and Resolution 1701 to restore stability.

Austrian soldiers actively participate in UN-peace-keeping missions such as @UNIFIL_ in southern Lebanon.Their efforts are essential for international stability, in crisis hotspots. We condemn in the strongest possible terms today’s very serious incident, presumably caused by Hizbollah or affiliated groups and we demand a swift clarification of the circumstances that lead to it. Our thoughts are with our injured soldiers and we wish all of them a speedy recovery. The safety of blue-helmet soldiers must be ensured, at all times.

Outraged by today's attack on @UNIFIL_ resulting in eight injured Austrian peacekeepers! The safety & security of the blue helmets must be guaranteed at all times. Attacks on @UN peacekeepers are a grave violation of international law and totally unacceptable.

Very concerned about draft legislation by the Israeli Knesset regarding #UNRWA. Effectively halting their vital work in #Gaza and the West Bank will not add to #Israel’s security and stability.

As the fighting in the #MiddleEast continues, civilians are paying the highest price. This has to stop❗️   Very alarmed by continued reports of attacks on health centres & hospitals. Civilians, incl. health workers, must be protected at all times. A ceasefire is urgently needed!

At the @UN Security Council briefing on Thursday on the situation in the Middle East, all 5 permanent members expressed support for @UNIFIL_ and concern for the safety & security of peacekeepers in south Lebanon as they face unpredictable risks while implementing their mandate.

We once again condemn the repeated attacks on @UNIFIL_ peacekeepers. Their presence is mandated by the @UN Security Council and everyone is obliged to guarantee their safety & security at all times! We have again made this position very clear to our Israeli partners.
Alexander Schallenberg@a_schallenberg10 Oct 2024
Extremely alarmed about hits of and close to @UNIFIL_ headquarter and positions, resulting in two injured peacekeepers - this is completely unacceptable and has to stop immediately! Everyone is obliged to ensure the safety and security of the Blue Helmets at all times!

And yesterday was Highlevel Week Day 6 with Austria FM @a_schallenberg in many bilateral meetings in the UN’s infamous Bilat Booths. After a whirlwind visit he flew home - not even 48h in NY. With elections on Sunday, he made a point to show Austria‘s support for the UN. #UNGA79

Day 7 of the UN Highlevel Week 2024: it’s relatively quiet at the #UN, some bilateral meetings and side events are still taking place but the main action is the General Debate continuing in the GA Hall. And even here, the audience has thinned out … it’s been a long week #UNGA79
