Shafaq News- Geneva
Iraq on Friday warned that
escalating military operations pose an immediate threat to regional and global
stability, calling for urgent international action to protect civilians,
particularly children.
Speaking at the 61st session of the
United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, Iraq’s representative described
the intensifying conflict as a “flagrant” breach of international law,
cautioning that it endangers economic stability and civilian safety. He
condemned attacks on children and educational institutions as serious
violations of humanitarian and human rights law.
“Targeting schools is a direct
threat to the future and stability of communities,” he added, stressing that
protecting children in conflict is a shared international responsibility and
calling for safeguarding their rights and dignity.
The statement also warned that
continued escalation would deepen existing crises and further destabilize the
region, while urging dialogue as the primary path toward de-escalation and
peace.
