Interactive Dialogue with the SRSG for Children and Armed Conflict at the Human Rights Council, September 2012:
“The United States is concerned about deeply disturbing information the Special Representative has presented regarding the use of explosive weapons by governments and non-state actors, which leads to unlawful killing and maiming of non-combatants and other civilians not directly participating in hostilities. It is also cowardly and unacceptable to use improvised explosive devices attacks on schools and hospitals in situations of armed conflict.”
