Come work with us! @ICRC is hiring for six paid associate positions at our legal division at HQ in Geneva. See the job description below for details. Deadline to apply is 17 May. Start date: February 2025. #IHL careers.icrc.org/job/Geneva-%28…
1/6 IHL has a long history of regulating the respect for and protection of the dead in armed conflicts. Respecting the dignity of the dead is a fundamental tenet of #IHL. Read more on the fundamental rules 👇 icrc.org/en/document/hu… 🧵
"We are witnessing a global and collective failure to protect civilians in armed conflicts. Interpreting the tenets of #IHL with increased elasticity sets a dangerous precedent with tragic consequences for all." Read @ICRC full statement for #EWIPAOslo shorturl.at/aimtM
‘Those who advocate compromise & nuance are exposed to ridicule & trolling at best, to censorship & repression at worst. Nothing is further removed from the spirit of Kant than the dogmatic way in which we are asked to accept war in all its forms: political, social, cultural.’ 🙏

📢 New Release! The @ICRC's 2024 Opinion Paper delves into critical legal issues on legal classifications of armed conflicts, explaining ICRC’s approach and methodology, and its understanding of contemporary conflict trends. 🌍#IHL icrc.org/en/document/ic…
In times of conflict, it is vital that facts are not distorted. Dis/misinformation has very real consequences on people’s lives. The narrative that legal obligations towards your enemy can be ignored is not new, but it is deeply misguided.
“I ask that you reaffirm your commitment to the letter AND spirit of the Geneva Conventions. Because interpreting international humanitarian law with increasing elasticity creates a dangerous precedent.”
“I ask that you reaffirm your commitment to the letter AND spirit of the Geneva Conventions. Because interpreting international humanitarian law with increasing elasticity creates a dangerous precedent.”
Le respect du droit international humanitaire n’est pas conditionné à des considérations politiques. Un de ses concepts fondateurs est l’absence de réciprocité. Ce n’est pas parce que tu tues mes civils que je vais tuer les tiens. @FCarboniICRC in @lemondefr #DIH #Gaza
In armed conflict, civilian harm must be the exception, not the rule. That's the core of international humanitarian law. All states have a stake in respect for #IHL in the war in Gaza, and in all other wars, because it is about preserving our humanity. ms.spr.ly/6013c5nGv

All this civilian harm is entirely foreseeable and must be expected from military attacks.

Today, the Review launches our new call for papers on an often-overlooked topic: the protection of the dead in armed conflicts and other humanitarian emergencies. Proposals are due 21 May at [email protected]. We're looking forward to hearing from you! international-review.icrc.org/call-for-paper…
"war is not a lawless space...You cannot win the war at all cost" @ICRC President on respect for international humanitarian law to preserve humanity during armed conflicts #IHL x.com/icrc/status/17…
Siege warfare has left millions of civilians trapped under fire, lacking food, water & medical care. International humanitarian law imposes limits to besieging & besieged parties. First & foremost sieges may only be directed against enemy armed forces. 🧵 icrc.org/en/document/pr…

“There are no safe spaces, and there’s no adequate humanitarian response possible under the current circumstances.” @ICRCPresident Mirjana Spoljaric recently visited Gaza and tells me “there is no street that I passed where I didn’t see houses destroyed.”
