Описание к видео The history of the International Committee of the Red Cross | The Laws Of War | ICRC

To know how the Red Cross movement began, this animation takes us back to 1859 and the Battle of Solferino. Swiss business man Henri Dunant witnessed the suffering of wounded soldiers left to die on the battlefield. This experience led to Dunant's vision of an organization that would care for wounded fighters regardless of which side they had been fighting on and so the Red Cross and Red Crescent movement was born and the essence of the Geneva Conventions.
