INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAW – HAGUE AND GENEVA CONVENTIONS ON WAR CRIMES, WAR VICTIMS AND PRISONERS OF WAR

International Humanitarian Law- Hague and Geneva Conventions on War Crimes, War Victims and Prisoners of War, is of global importance as the book deals with matters related to war between countries, during which thousands of human beings are killed and/or seriously wounded and properties worth millions are destroyed. International Humanitarian Law, the core subject matter of this book, clearly provides that at times of war, the warring parties are obliged to observe certain rights and duties as implemented by various Hague and Geneva Conventions and Protocols, much of which are discussed in this book.
