Original Note:
The OP correctly claims that civilians etc can't be deliberately targeted, but also suggests they must be protected at all times. This is not the case. Civilian casualties may be a consequence of a legitimate military strike. https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/gciv-1949/article-19?activeTab=undefined
