Red Cross: Israel violates Geneva Conventions
The president of the International Committee of the Red Cross accused Israel
on Tuesday of violating the Geneva Conventions by preventing aid convoys from
getting into areas targeted by Israeli airstrikes.
The official, Jakob Kellenberger, demanded more access to civilians in
southern Lebanon. He will meet with Israeli officials on Wednesday.
"By letting down leaflets you cannot get rid of your responsibilities under
international humanitarian law," Kellenberger said, referring to warnings the
Israeli military has issued before airstrikes.
Earlier, a Red Cross spokesman said the group was able to win "freedom of
movement" for convoys after repeated requests to Israel.
Thousands of people are still believed to be living in shelters in southern
Lebanon villages, Red Cross spokesman Roland Huguenin-Benjamin said. While the
Red Cross is allowed to bring ships into the Lebanese ports of Tyre and Sidon,
he said, damaged roads have hindered the delivery of aid into the countryside.
The destruction of a main road and a makeshift bridge by airstrikes forced
Doctors Without Borders to bring supplies into the southern Lebanese city of
Tyre by forming a human chain across the Litani River, said a spokesman for
the aid group.
