The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI models easily and securely connect to different data sources and tools, making it much simpler for developers to build smart apps that can access files, databases, and APIs without custom code for each one[2][3][4]. There are many free and easy-to-use MCP clients—like desktop apps, web apps, and command-line tools—that let you quickly add new AI features and automate tasks, so you can get more done with less effort and technical hassle. This means you can use AI to help with coding, data analysis, and daily work, all while keeping your data safe and your setup flexible[2][3][4].

#Ethiopia: Limited cash availability in #Tigray banks affecting aid delivery to displaced people, OCHA official warns
Limited cash availability in banks across Ethiopia’s Tigray Region is affecting the ability of humanitarian organizations to deliver assistance to displaced communities, an official from the #United_Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (#OCHA) has warned.
Lokuju Peter, head of OCHA’s Tigray sub-office, said humanitarian actors are facing operational difficulties linked to limited cash availability in local banks, which has constrained aid organizations’ ability to support internally displaced people (#IDPs).
Peter said the challenge comes at a time when humanitarian actors are also facing reduced assistance from donor countries, further complicating efforts to maintain aid operations in the region.
According to Tigray Television, the remarks were made on 4 March 2026 during a discussion held in Mekelle on the ....

Глобальная гуманитарная система под угрозой: ООН делает «болезненный выбор»
🇺🇳 ООН столкнулась с самым серьезным дефицитом финансирования в истории гуманитарной помощи. Как заявили одновременно две ключевые структуры – Управление ООН по координации гуманитарных вопросов (OCHA) и Агентство по делам беженцев (UNHCR) – ситуация требует радикальных мер.
UNHCR объявило о сокращении:
➡️почти 30% расходов на персонал,
➡️3,5 тыс. постоянных позиций и сотен временных договоров,
➡️закрытии и уменьшении масштабов деятельности ряда офисов.
Под удар попали базовые программы: финансовая помощь, здравоохранение, образование, водоснабжение и санитария. Несмотря на это, число вынужденных переселенцев в мире достигло 122 млн человек – почти вдвое больше, чем десять лет назад.
OCHA, в свою очередь, запустило «апелляцию выживания» на $29 млрд, перераспределяя приоритеты в пользу стран с наивысшими гуманитарными рисками. По словам главы OCHA Тома Флетчера, сегодня речь идет о триаже человеческого выживания: «Мы просим лишь 1% от того, что вы потратили на войны. Это не только призыв о деньгах — это призыв к глобальной ответственности».
При этом, из необходимого по Глобальному гуманитарному обзору на 2025 год ($44 млрд) собрано менее 13%.

News: #UN warns escalating hostilities along #Sudan’s borders, including with #Ethiopia, threaten civilians and disrupt aid operations
Escalating hostilities along Sudan’s borders, including with Ethiopia, are endangering civilians and disrupting humanitarian operations, the United Nations has warned.
According to a report by Xinhua, citing the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (#OCHA), recent clashes near Sudan’s frontiers with Ethiopia and #Chad have resulted in civilian casualties and forced displacement.
In #Blue_Nile State, violence near the Ethiopian border has restricted access to key regions including #Kurmuk, #Sali, and #Dindraw, south of the state capital, #Ed_Damazine. Civilians have reportedly fled toward Ed Damazine and across the border into Ethiopia in search of safety.
Sudanese officials have accused Ethiopia of facilitating operations by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (#RSF) and allied groups—an allegation.......
