"I'm calling on all states equally to return to a position where they prioritize de-escalation ... and it will be easier for them to do so if they put the fate of civilians, if they put the security and safety of their own people at the center".
Mirjana Spoljaric, ICRC President, shared during an interview with @_HadleyGamble for @TheNationalNews.
One month of hostilities in the Middle East has upended the lives of millions and sent shockwaves far beyond the region at a scale and speed that threatens to overwhelm the humanitarian response.
The way hostilities have been waged has exacerbated the detrimental impact. Without respect for the rules of war, civilians will continue to suffer profound consequences that could outlast the current conflict.
At a time of escalating needs and tightening humanitarian budgets, the ICRC and other organizations are being forced to adapt to disrupted supply chains that are undermining their operations.
