SUMMARY:Healthcare Under Attack: Why the Rules of War Are Failing to Protec
 t the Medical Mission
CLASS:PUBLIC
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>The bombing of Médecins Sans Frontières
 ’ (MSF) trauma hospital in Kunduz\, Afghanistan\, became the precursor o
 f international attention to the protection of healthcare in war and contr
 ibuted to the adoption of UN Security Council Resolution 2286\, which reaf
 firmed the obligation of all parties to armed conflict to respect and prot
 ect medical facilities\, patients and healthcare workers.</p><p>Ten years 
 after\, attacks on healthcare remain a growing feature of conflict\, with 
 devastating consequences for patients\, healthcare workers and communities
 ’ access to life-saving care. As conflicts become increasingly urbanised
  and technologically complex\, humanitarian organisations such as MSF oper
 ate in environments where respect for the medical mission is under mountin
 g strain.</p><style>strong.echo{background-image:url('/assets/d4899f9c/ima
