Respecting the rules of war is not an option: it is an obligation of all parties to armed conflicts. #ICRC #redcross #կխմկ #կարմիրխաչ #IHL #ՄՄԻ

Today we mark the 75th anniversary of the Geneva Conventions. Since 12 August 1949, they have safeguarded human dignity in the darkest times of armed conflicts. #ICRC #կխմկ #կարմիրխաչ #IHL #ՄՄԻ #gc75

Not all heroes are appreciated. In an ideal world, war surgeons would be as famous as footballers. They risk their lives to help others. ----- We provide health care to people affected by conflicts and violence around the world. #ICRC #ԿԽՄԿ #ԿարմիրԽաչ

The nuclear bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima had a yield of 15 kilotons. 👉It killed 140,000 people. 👉90% of healthcare personnel were killed or injured. 👉80% of hospitals destroyed. We won't be able to cope if nuclear weapons are used again. #ICRC #կխմկ

In these photos, you can see the American writer Ernest Hemingway during his time as a Red Cross volunteer. At 18, Hemingway volunteered as a driver for the American Red Cross after being rejected by the army due to poor eyesight. #ICRC #կխմկ #hemingway #archives

This week we mark the 75th anniversary of the Geneva Conventions, international treaties that set limits for armed conflicts. Parties to armed conflicts must abide by these rules, saving lives. 👇

On August 19, World Humanitarian Day, we remind the world that Victory by any means isn’t victory at all. Even wars have rules. When they are ignored, we all lose. #NotATarget #GenevaConventions #WorldHumanitarianDay2024 #gc75

Days turn into weeks. Weeks into months. Months into years. For every person missing, countless people are missing them. Families deserve to know where are their relatives and what happened to them.
