International humanitarian law protects civilians and limits suffering in war. Humanity created these rules – we must safeguard them. This week, I joined Switzerland, the ICRC & fellow Parliamentarians to discuss our work to protect aid workers & the rules that keep us all safe. https://t.co/bdW9YqR4zn
Australia stands with the people of Nepal. Today I signed the condolence book at Nepal's Embassy in Canberra. We are grateful for Nepal's efforts to help Australians affected by this disaster, and our thoughts remain with the Nepali people and government. https://t.co/Foewdu5256
As we mark 50 years of our Basic Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation with Japan, our countries have never been more strategically aligned. Today, I met Japan's Senate President Sekiguchi and delegation members to reaffirm our commitment to our Special Strategic Partnership. https://t.co/3tzPvM2LhM

This is in addition to the 19 personnel already dispatched to Nepal to support the crisis response. We continue to do everything we can to confirm the welfare of the 38 Australians who remain unaccounted for and support their loved ones.
This morning I gave an update on everything we’re doing to find the Australians still unaccounted for in Nepal and Tibet, China. I announced we're deploying a team of specialist drone operators, who will provide mapping & thermal imaging to support search & rescue efforts. https://t.co/FKAsmcclQ0
Australia stands in full solidarity with Germany following Russia’s hybrid attack in Leipzig on 4 August. Though separated by oceans, we share a strong commitment to global peace and security. Australia remains steadfast in supporting a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.

There has been an overwhelming response from the Australian people to the Emergency Action Alliance appeal, which has now reached over $1.4m in donations. As a result, the government will provide a further $1 million to the EAA appeal.
Australia is deploying a further $3m in humanitarian assistance, following the devastating floods along the Nepal-China border. This includes $2m in supplies and other humanitarian support to be delivered by the ADF in the coming days.
While this is a welcome development, there remain grave concerns for the other Australians who remain unaccounted for, and our officials are continuing to work closely with local authorities to locate and assist those affected.
Cara Severino has been safely located by Australian consular officials in Nepal. I spoke directly with her a short time ago and am very pleased to know she is safe. This is a rare piece of positive news amid a disaster that has brought immense loss and uncertainty. https://t.co/Rn6pDBN9uh
I've spoken with Nepali FM @shisir to convey Australia's deep condolences & support for the Nepali people. I affirmed that Australia stands ready to provide further humanitarian assistance incl. to aid rescue & recovery efforts as we work to confirm the welfare of those missing.
Funding will be delivered through established partners to provide support such as food, emergency shelter and clean water. Additional personnel have been deployed, with further regional and crisis response surge support being prepared for deployment within the next 48 hours.
As Australian officials urgently work to confirm the welfare of missing Australians, we are mobilising support in response to floods in Nepal and China, including a $5m assistance package for affected communities and additional personnel to support Australians.
Congratulations to PM Brown on your success in the Cook Islands election. I fondly remember my visit to Rarotonga, and the warmth and generosity shown by the people of the Cook Islands. In an increasingly complex world, our connections matter more than ever. Kia manuia! https://t.co/BJp1HTmSqY

The loss of life and destruction caused by flash flooding in Nepal and China is devastating. Our thoughts are with the loved ones of those killed or missing and all affected by this disaster. @DFAT officials are urgently working to confirm the welfare of Australians in the area.
The signing this year of the Jakarta Treaty marks a new chapter in the relationship between Australia and Indonesia.
