- Update Report on Protection of Civilians0.29 MB
Security Council Report has published an Update Report on Protection of Civilians.
On Tuesday 10 May the Council is scheduled to hold an open debate on protection of civilians in armed conflict. Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Valerie Amos, Under-Secretary-General for Peacekeeping Operations Alain Le Roy and Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights Ivan Simonovic are expected to speak. With the Council’s recent consideration of protection of civilians in specific situations including in Côte d’Ivoire, Libya, Yemen and Syria, it is unclear whether participants in the debate will be mostly focused on thematic issues or will use it as an opportunity to address situation-specific concerns.
