"Amidst War, Charity" (Slogan of the ICRC)
1859, Swiss businessman Henry Dunant witnessed the aftermath of the Ballte of Solferino. Shocked by the widespread suffering, Dunant became a founding member of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in 1863. The ICRC was the first organisation dedicated to helping wounded soldiers and providing help to all wounded belligerents. The Red Cross's unconditional help to all belligerents has been criticised, as it may necessitate cooperation with regimes that violate humanitarian law and human rights.
