Les responsables des agences des Nations Unies appellent à tenir responsables ceux qui violent le droit international dans la région du Moyen-Orient

Mars Finance reports that on April 11, the heads of several UN agencies called for an end to the widespread impunity for violations of international law in the Middle East. Leaders of various countries stated in a joint declaration that they are “shocked by the ongoing violations of the rules of war and international humanitarian law in the region.” The declaration pointed out that “even in war, there are rules that must be respected.” It also noted that “just last month, thousands of civilians were killed or injured in the Middle East. Hundreds of thousands were displaced, many of whom were forced to migrate multiple times.” “We call on all parties—whether UN member states or armed groups—to respect their legal obligations to protect civilians (including humanitarian personnel) and civilian infrastructure. All violations must be held accountable.”
