The Law of War, also known as International Humanitarian Law, encompasses the rules and principles that regulate the conduct of armed conflict. It is designed to protect those who are not or are no longer participating in hostilities and to limit the methods and means of warfare. Adherence to these laws aims to minimize human suffering and preserve fundamental human rights during times of war.
The Geneva Conventions establish fundamental principles for the humane treatment of individuals during armed conflict, influencing the Rules of Engagement (ROE) by setting legal and ethical standards for military conduct. These conventions mandate the protection of non-combatants and the treatment of prisoners of war, thereby guiding military personnel on the use of force and engagement with the enemy. Consequently, ROE must align with these principles, ensuring that military actions comply with international law and uphold human rights. Failure to adhere to the Geneva Conventions can lead to legal repercussions and impact the legitimacy of military operations.
