dc.description |
It is an understatement to say that armed conflicts fought in densely populated areas can and do cause tremendous human suffering. Civilians in particular have historically paid a high price in the form of death, injuries, and permanent disabilities. They have also paid indirectly through the effects of widespread damage to their homes, the impact on their livelihoods, and the destruction of the infrastructure that supplies the necessities of life. With modern conflicts increasingly fought in urban areas, civilians are increasingly caught in the midst of hostilities. Such a trend will surely continue into the future. |
