What is a care home?
A care home provides accommodation and personal care for people who need extra support, often due to age, illness, or disability. The damage to a care home in this strike highlights the devastating impact of conflict on vulnerable civilians and civilian infrastructure. International law aims to protect such facilities during wartime, though they are often inadvertently caught in attacks.
