newspaper mockup "There can be no justification for destruction of civilian areas in Idlib" - Emergency Relief Chief

Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Mark Lowcock said more than 500 civilians had been killed and many hundreds more injured since the start of the escalation in northwest Syria in late April. He said WHO and UNICEF reported that 43 health facilities, 87 educational facilities, 29 water stations, and 7 markets had all been impacted by fighting since April. He called on the parties to ensure respect for international law adding that the Board of Inquiry announced by the Secretary-General would investigate incidents in northwest Syria which damaged or destroyed facilities which have either been deconflicted or received humanitarian support from the UN.

SOUNDBITE (English) Mark Lowcock, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator:
“The rules are clear. The parties must at all times apply the principles of distinction and precaution in the conduct of hostilities and take all necessary steps to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure from attacks and the effects of violence. People’s homes, hospitals, schools, water systems and markets must be protected. There can be no reason, rationale, excuse or justification for the destruction of civilian areas on the scale seen in Idlib today.”

Lowcock said the UN was continuing to carry out relief operations and has reached 6 million people around the country this year. However, he said with less well funded than 2018 he appealed for countries who made pledges in the Brussels conference in April to take action to implement them.
