00:29 The acts in the complaint occurred during the 93 days of sustained violence against

00:35 children, women and innocent civilians, the destruction of hospitals, schools, houses

00:40 and civilian facilities, and the intentional usage of starvation and deprivation of water,

00:45 medicine, electricity and all other vital means of life.

00:54 Africa and again reiterates the just demand for a ceasefire.
