“Deliberate threats, whether in rhetoric or in action, against essential civilian infrastructure and nuclear facilities must not become the new norm in warfare. I urgently call on parties to spare civilians and civilian objects in all military operations. It is their obligation under international humanitarian law.” Mirjana Spoljaric, ICRC President.

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

NEW: Our in-depth investigation finds that US has violated international humanitarian law by failing to take all feasible precautions to avoid civilian harm. US is responsible for the deadly attack on a school in #Minab packed full of children.

US authorities must ensure that their investigation is transparent, thorough, and that the results are made public. https://t.co/L89oJOfK0N

"The Iranian people are caught between a large-scale military campaign by two countries, the US and Israel, and ongoing repression by their own government in Iran,” Sara Hossain, chair of the Fact Finding Mission on #Iran told the @UN Human Rights Council.

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

The escalating conflict in the Middle East, and the impact on public health, are of great concern.

Damage to petroleum facilities in #Iran risks contaminating food, water and air – hazards that can have severe health impacts especially on children, older people, and people with pre existing medical conditions.

Rain laden with oil has been reported falling in parts of the country.

In #Lebanon, nine health workers have been killed since 28 February and 16 injured. Additionally, 43 primary health care centres and 5 hospitals have closed due to evacuation orders.

WHO is monitoring the situation in Iran, Lebanon, Iraq and all affected countries closely and supporting local authorities to keep health systems running, protect communities, and reduce health risks.

I urge all parties to de-escalate and prevent further risks to people’s health, impacts on health facilities and workers, a further expansion of the conflict across the region.

Peace is always the best medicine.
