The Red Cross (@ICRC) has been party to several war crimes in recent weeks. It must cease and desist immediately and should be held accountable for the crimes already committed. The Fourth Geneva Convention states that protected persons (e.g. civilians and other detainees) "are entitled, in all circumstances, to respect for their persons [and] their honour... They shall at all times be humanely treated, and shall be protected especially against all acts of violence or threats thereof and against insults and public curiosity." By actively participating in the public spectacles arranged by Hamas to showcase and humiliate the Israeli hostages it has been releasing—including going on stage to sign fake release documents that have absolutely no legal value—Red Cross officials have been in direct violation of international humanitarian law. They should adamantly refuse to participate in these charades or risk prosecution for their participation therein.
