Ten years after @UN Security Council demanded the protection of healthcare in conflict, it is still under attack.

‼️ Hospitals. Clinics. Ambulances.
‼️ Health workers. Patients.

Facing violence, attacks and threats.

Healthcare must be protected.

#NotATarget

[OCHA in Qatar @OchaQatar]

Protection of civilians ultimately depends on political choices.

At #PoCWeek2026, the State of Qatar & @UNOCHA convened Member States & humanitarian partners to discuss how humanitarian diplomacy can help protect civilians, uphold international humanitarian law & support access.

[Lisa Doughten @Lisa_Doughten]

One civilian killed nearly every 14 minutes across 20 conflicts.

Speaking at @AustriaUN #PoCWeek2026, I challenged the Security Council and Member States to use the tools they've developed to protect civilians and ensure respect for IHL.

Civilians are #NotATarget. @UNOCHA
