Ukraine must win because if Russia wins, we all lose
Attacking a hospital and then targeting rescuers is a barbaric act. A unified, protective response by NATO and the EU will send a strong message: the world won't sit back and watch civilians be deliberately targeted.
This isn't an escalation. It's a move to save civilians and protect civilian infrastructure. By intercepting attacks on non-combatants, NATO and the EU will uphold international humanitarian law and UN Article 51
This action falls under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, which allows for collective self-defence. Article 51 lets countries defend themselves and others from attacks. This protection force is defensive, aimed at stopping war crimes and saving lives.
NATO and the EU need to step in. NATO and the EU should create a special protection force with one clear goal: to protect civilian targets. This force won't join the war but will focus on stopping missiles and attacks aimed at civilians.
First, targeting a hospital is illegal under international law. Second, the tactic of double tapping—waiting to strike again to kill rescuers—is equally heinous. This act is the final straw.
I hope that this last strike by Russia is the Straw That Broke the Camel's Back The Russian missile strike on a children's hospital is a war crime on two levels.
Thank you 😊
