The Red Cross originated after the Battle of Solferino in 1859, where Henry Dunant witnessed extensive suffering of wounded soldiers and advocated for the creation of neutral organizations to care for victims of war. This led to the establishment of the International Committee of the Red Cross in 1863 to protect victims of armed conflict and ensure humane treatment of prisoners according to international law. The ICRC now works globally to provide humanitarian aid during conflicts and other violent situations through activities like visiting detainees, reuniting families, and offering health services.
