At the United Nations, Emergency Relief Coordinator Valerie Amos warned both sides in the Syrian conflict are flouting their humanitarian obligations.

Valerie Amos: “I told the Security Council that it is unacceptable that four months since the members of that council demanded action, international humanitarian law continues to be consistently and flagrantly violated by all parties to the conflict. All parties are failing in their responsibility to protect civilians. We understand that a war is going on, but even wars have rules.”
