Holding Innocent People: Has the Red Cross Crossed the Line?

What are the humanitarian principles that humanitarian aid organizations are required to abide by? Are they fulfilling their obligations towards the hostages from October 7th according to their own statutes?

Why have the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and other humanitarian agencies been unable to fulfill their own charters to take care of the Israeli hostages of October 7? Why does the ICRC continue its presence in Gaza while ignoring its continued impotence regarding the Israeli hostages? How does this embody neutrality, impartiality and independence? How can it justify its historic lack of neutrality and partiality? Where is the accountability for the ICRC and other EU-recognized organizations for their inability/inaction in helping the hostages and yet helping all other peoples?
