🧵 1/3: Finally watched #Gaza #Doctors Under Attack, the #documentary forcibly dropped by the #BBC & picked up by Channel4. This film feels personal: 27 of my #RedCross colleagues have been killed in Gaza, often targeted as the film demonstrates.
It opens on the now famous mobile footage shot by #Palestinian #RedCrescent staff showing marked #PRCS ambulances/lights targeted by the #IDF, before he & 14 staff were killed & buried with their vehicles in a mass grave.

WAFA AgencyICRC warns of regional crisis amid escalating hostilities in the Middle East

While diving into the latest #Killnet news, I stumbled upon something I wasn't aware yet -- the colloquially named Geneva Code of cyber-war. It defines the rules of engagement for civilian hackers involved in international conflicts. The rules were defined through the International Committee of the Red Cross.

I am unsure, if hacktivists are very keen in following it, but having such a convention appears to be pretty useful to minimize civilian harm.

Unsere Kamerad/innen vom Schweizerischen Roten Kreuz berichten über das im #Gaza-Gebiet betriebene Rotkreuz-#Feldhospital. Es bietet so ziemlich als letzte medizinische Einrichtung der Bevölkerung dort noch Hilfe.
Ein lesenswerter Beitrag, der die Wirksamkeit der Rotkreuzgrundsätze auch in extremen Ausnahmelagen trotz aller Erschwernisse beschreibt.
