On 5 December, the General Assembly of the United Nations accepted the resolution on the protection of health facilities and personnel, which “strongly condemns all attacks on medical and health personnel (un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/69/L.35&referer=/english/&Lang=E), their means of transport and equipment, as well as hospitals and other medical facilities, and deplores the long-term consequences of such attacks for the population and health-care systems of the countries concerned”. ICN was an active participant in the development of this resolution as part of the Health Care in Danger project (icn.ch/news/health-care-in-danger/) which aims to make access to health care in situations of armed violence more secure.
