While some step away, Tonga steps forward!🤝🇹🇴 📢We celebrate that Tonga has deposited its accession instrument to the UN and will become a State Party to the @MineBanTreaty on 1 December 2025. A strong commitment to disarmament and IHL—right when it's needed the most.⚖️📜

📢We strongly condemn Poland & the Baltic states’ intention to withdraw from @MineBanTreaty. This is not about military necessity - security in the modern world cannot be ensured by outdated and indiscriminate weapons such as AP mines. Read more📷👇 npaid.org/mine-action-and-di…

The #CCM has saved countless lives and is a key instrument for the protection of civilians. While it’s sad to see Lithuania leave, the norm and stigma against cluster munitions remain strong and must be protected!

Proud to publish the Nuclear Weapons Ban Monitor, with expert contributions from @scientistsorg @nukestrat @mattkorda @ProfNickRitchie @russianforces @JanaBaldus @tghugo @TimMilesWright and more.

🇵🇪 In our response to Peru's A5 Extension Request, we reiterated that we stand ready to support Peru - a long time partner - in implementing their clearance obligations. Please read the full statement below. #APMBC

Yesterday we were proud to take part in the march for a mine free world in Siem Reap Cambodia, marking the beginning of the 5th Review Conference of the @MineBanTreaty #mineaction #disarmament @norskfolkehjelp @RaymondJohansen ✌️✌️✌️

The military is discussing the event of a nuclear detonation. Most relevant is smaller, tactical nukes of 1 or 5 kg tonnes. If used, it would no longer be a tactical, but strategical weapon createing a catastrophe that would impact the whole world,says @AndersKildal @Forsvaret_no

Read about how she realised her mind was colonised by the French government npaid.org/news/decolonizing-…

Survivor of nuclear testing in French Polynesia, @Hinamoeura got leukemia. She is provoked about French officials being proud of their nuclear arsenals. “These weapons have forever infected my blood, it’s us survivors who are paying the price for the greatness of these weapons”.

2 hours after a detonation, my biggest concern would be the burns, 90 percent of those who died in Hiroshima died of burns. In Norway we have 8 burn beds and 236 intensive care beds. Imagine that for 100 000 patients, says MD and resident of surgery @HSykehus Saima Naz Akhtar.

Kicking off the #nukeEXPO event in Oslo tomorrow with an event tonight organised by @UngOgSolidarisk og @RodeKorsUngdom. @mattkorda sharing knowledge on the dangers of nuclear weapons, and hearing the strong testimony of a Hibakusha - survivor of the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima.

What do @kjolvegeland, @JaworekPatricia, Moritz Kütt and @mattkorda have in common? They are the #NukeEXPO expert panel that will discuss the risks of deliberate or inadvertent use of nuclear weapons. Secure your ticket to hear them speak in Oslo, at nukeexpo.org

#ClusterMunitions are NOT effective weapons, but in fact very bad indiscriminate weapons with high failure rates. They harm civilians during & for decades after the conflict. They are banned for a reason! @ISUCCM @banclusterbombs – at Oslo, Norway
