The village of Ogossagou is located 144 kilometres from the town of Sévaré in the Mopti region of central Mali. Ogossagou has been the site of two massacres between local ethnic groups in the space of two years, resulting in numerous casualties. For the last two years peacekeepers from Senegal serving with the Quick Reaction Force (QRF) of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) has secured a temporary operational base (TOB) in the village. The village of Ogossagou is difficult to access by land due to the security situation, terrorist attacks and Improvised Explosive Device (IED), and to the isolation of the village. Recently calm has returned to Ogossagou with the signing of local agreements between the two communities. A helicopter flies over the village of Ogossagou in central Mali..
Josh Jorgensen (at podium) from Centre for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC), briefs reporters on "A Call to Action for International Humanitarian Law and the Protection of Civilians". At left is Lisa Doughten, Director of Financing and Partnerships Division of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), and at right is Andrea Canepa from the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). Standing at the press briefing area are 75-year-old chairs symbolizing “the seat of duty”. The gesture emphasizes the Security Council’s unique role as custodian of international peace and security, responsible for upholding and promoting international humanitarian law and responsible to protect vulnerable groups. Each chair portrays one letter of the message “War has limits” and symbolizes the collective responsibility to uphold international humanitarian law. Empty chairs symbolize the courageous presence of humanitarian workers at the front line, often risking their own safety to provide aid and protection. International humanitarian law is crystal clear: We must protect and respect UN and humanitarian personnel.
