A city which is subjected to bombing and shelling faces a high likelihood of being turned to rubble. But it also ruins the fabric of the city, ruining lives and livelihoods, negatively impacting the community at large, and often even after fighting has stopped. In this episode, INEW gathers experts who speak about the impact of explosive weapons on critical infrastructure including homes, hospitals and schools, as well as electricity and water systems, and the knock-on effects this has on the provision of essential services such as healthcare. It also explores the impact that explosive weapons have on the environment.
Drawing on testimonies from survivors in Nagorno-Karabakh and cases such as that of the Hodeidah Port in Yemen, this episode aims to highlight the impact of damage and destruction to critical infrastructure, including the reverberating knock-on effects and how they impact peoples’ lives.
