  • The protection of #civilians must be at the heart of all urban operations. This obligation is clear under #IHL, international humanitarian law. People living in cities depend on highly interconnected essential services for their daily lives. War disrupts these services, leading to cascading failures and a spiral of harm. Military planning and practices must reflect the specifics of an urban setting and prioritize the protection of civilians to prevent the devastating consequences affecting several generations.
