In this scene from a recent film made for US television, a military helicopter filled with soldiers and bearing a logo resembling that of the ICRC is landing in a refugee camp – A few minutes later, fighting breaks out between the soldiers and separatist forces, causing the death of many refugees. Displaying the emblem to protect combatants or military equipment engaging in hostile acts is a clear case of misuse. Even though this scene is fictional, it calls into question the ICRC’s neutrality and operational methods. In real life, perfidious use of the emblem, when causing death or serious personal injury, is considered a war crime.
