Prince William raises his voice against war crimes as she talks about death in Gaza.
The Prince of Wales, who delivered a speech when launching a memorial for humanitarian workers killed in service in Gunnersbury Park in western London, called on unjustified practice.
He began: “Each of these deaths is a tragedy. A cruel affront to international humanitarian principles which must remain sacro-sacrose.
“One thing that should unite us all is the support and protection of those who seek to help others in the most disastrous situations. The courageous humanitarian workers who seek to feed and cure innocent people deserve our respect and deserve their security.
The future king added: “The humanitarian workers bring comfort in the darkest moments. We must do more to recognize their service, and more to protect them.”
He added: “In the world, far too many people continue to face pain, sufferings and unimaginable losses, whether by natural disasters or conflicts and a famine of human origin. We are witnessing the appalling suffering of those who are victims of war and violence from Ukraine to Sudan, myanmar in Haiti, and indeed in a large part Middle East.
“However, the presence of humanitarian workers, like those of Gaza, works like a shared humanity thread through the most stimulating environments. Rather than fleeing danger, discomfort and hunger, these men and incredibly courageous women remain the most.
“We have to defend and fight for their access to people in the most desperate circumstances,” noted William.
