It’s with a heavy heart we share that two of our drivers were killed by gunmen today in South #Darfur, #Sudan. Three other ICRC staff were injured. The ICRC's priority is to support those most affected by this tragedy, in particular the victims’ relatives, and colleagues.
Wars have moved into the lives, cities, and homes of ordinary people in a more vicious way than ever before. States and non-state armed groups must remember that the Geneva Conventions protect people caught in these conflicts. #GC75
Today at the Vienna Conference on Autonomous Weapons we call for new, legally binding international rules, to prohibit those autonomous weapon systems that pose the gravest risk for IHL compliance and our values, and to place strict constraints on all others 👇🏽
"We are witnessing a global and collective failure to protect civilians in armed conflicts," says @ICRC president. Statement to #EWIPAOslo conference, one year after states adopted a political declaration on explosive weapons in populated areas. icrc.org/en/document/gl…

What are the potential harmful consequences for people in armed conflict? How must we address them?
We are pleased to invite you to attend our online co-hosted event with the International Committee of the Red Cross on Artificial Intelligence in Military Decision Making. The event will launch two significant reports on the subject: geneva-academy.ch/event/all-even…
"My nephews, my aunts and more than 15 or 16 family members are missing and we know nothing about them." Antasar Jouma Adam lives in Sudan and, like millions of people, she and her family are paying a heavy price for the conflict.
Sudan today 1 year of conflict 8.5 million of people displaced 70% of healthcare facilities no longer functioning The conflict has changed Antasar and Wajdan's lives forever. Visit our newsroom to find out more: 🎥 ms.spr.ly/6012cAnqA
For every person taken hostage on October 7th, countless family members – parents, children, siblings – like those of Alexander Lobanov, spend every hour missing them. Hostage-taking is prohibited under international humanitarian law. The hostages must be immediately released.
🗣️ “Our presence at the exchange is designed as a signal of security for both parties” - Jürg Eglin, @ICRC head in #Ukraine. Repatriated fallen soldiers can be identified & eventually returned to their families for burial. 📰 @IKoshiw in @Telegraph 👇 telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
The huge, multi-agency effort to return dead Ukrainian soldiers who end up behind enemy lines. So far 2,495 have been returned through the bodies corridor but there remain over 24,000 missing soldiers - of which, so far, a few dozen identified as PoWs. telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
"We witness an intensification of the conflict in Somalia, and we expect the detention population will also increase." ICRC in #Somalia is expanding visits to detention places in response to the escalating armed conflict. Footage in our newsroom 👇🏾ms.spr.ly/6017csaqh
Ce financement contribuera à fournir une assistance vitale d'urgence, notamment de la nourriture, des médicaments et de l’eau potable. Il est impératif que tous les parties au conflit respectent le droit international humanitaire.
@RichardHRBenyon s'est engagé à augmenter le financement du Royaume-Uni pour appuyer davantage la réponse du @ICRC dans l'est de la RDC, afin de répondre aux besoins humanitaires urgents et croissants.
Thank you @UKinDRCongo for your support to the ICRC at this critical time to boost our response to the urgent and growing need in the Eastern DRC👇
@RichardHRBenyon s'est engagé à augmenter le financement du Royaume-Uni pour appuyer davantage la réponse du @ICRC dans l'est de la RDC, afin de répondre aux besoins humanitaires urgents et croissants.
📍 #Haiti The most recent armed violence events in Port-au-Prince, which involve roadblocks, and a stark shortage of medical supplies, among others, are having a direct impact on access to healthcare for the affected communities and a shortage of drinking water.
The European Gaza Hospital has become a refuge for people who have lost or fled their homes. Living in proximity to this violence takes a mental and physical toll. Here, Ward Nurse Gloria Todeschini talks us about children she has treated. 📽 @ICRC
The Ibo health centre in #Mozambique is back in operation. The ICRC rehabilitated the referral unit, which was damaged by Cyclone Kenneth in 2019. The facility can now serve 41,000 people in the Ibo islands and coastal areas of #CaboDelgado.
"One of the most painful things is when you walk through the hospital, and the children ask you if everything is going to be ok..." Amid the sound of explosions in Khan Younis, our colleague from @ICRC, @nanoninoto tells us about the situation in the European Gaza Hospital 👇
Hisham Mhanna from the International Committee of the Red Cross, tells #BBCWato that an Israeli ground offensive in Rafah would be 'disastrous' to the 1.5m displaced Gazans, and 'the world would bare witness' to thousands of people 'whose lives could have been spared'.
"There was an explosion and I couldn't feel anything." Haftom, from #Tigray region, #Ethiopia, was injured and lost his leg. He received help from one of the 13 Physical Rehabilitation Centers that @ICRCEthiopia supports and now he is walking again.
Four months on, we feel deeply for those being held, and their families who’ve had no news of their loved ones. For the @ICRC to see them, there must be an agreement by all sides that will facilitate the safe access of our colleagues to visit those being held. ⬇
Since the 2023 earthquake, needs in #Syria remain immense. In the past year, with @SYRedCrescent, we assisted: ✅17 m people with improved access to clean water. ✅400,000+ with access to healthcare. ✅16,400+ families with financial aid. ✅240+ earthquake-hit small businesses.
The situation in Gaza is beyond desperate. It's unacceptable that humanitarian workers are not respected. The call for protection and respect for civilians, wherever they are, in every condition, is really critical. It is a legal obligation under international humanitarian…
#Senegal's captain at #CAN2023, @kkoulibaly26, teams up with the ICRC to defend the most vulnerable in armed conflicts. Watch the full film on 25 January and #DefendIHL
