The deaths of our colleagues demand more than empty words of outrage: they demand action. The international community cannot keep looking away as the rules of war are ignored, and humanitarian workers deliberately targeted while trying to save lives. ๐Ÿ“ƒ Full statement by ICRC

During times of crisis and uncertainty, we choose to support humanity by providing hope, relief, and solidarity to those who need it the most. Humanitarian action must remain neutral, independent, and impartial. #OnTheSideOfHumanity #RedCrossDay #RedCrescentDay

#IHL is key for protecting vulnerable populations in armed conflicts, yet its main challenge is poor implementation. Raising awareness of the rules among humanitarian professionals creates discussions about the impacts of conflicts & helps identify ways to support the affected.
