Original Note:
The Geneva Convention, specifically Art 18, clearly states that civilian hospitals may in no circumstances be the object of attack, but shall at all times be respected and protected. They are not legitimate targets per international law of armed conflict. https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/geneva-convention-relative-protection-civilian-persons-time-war
