Didn’t see any Red Cross thingies close to the battle-fronts, as in, putting themselves in harms’ way in order to save lives. I’m talking about Ukraine/Russia, which is the conflict I’ve followed closer. I’m convinced the same holds true about Niger and Mali, where they most probably enjoy diplomatic neo-colonial status close to the capital. In other words, show me the Red Cross people who have lost their lives close to the lines of battle in the last 5-10-15 years and I’ll change my opinion. Otherwise, stuff like this just denotes laziness when it comes to investing in real IT security.

I half expect you now to say "yeah, but it isn't that many people", which might be because it is a a WAR CRIME to kill Red Cross workers. Really, seriously smh.
