Peril and risk are both concepts related to the potential for loss or harm. Peril refers to a specific event or situation that can cause damage, such as fire or theft, while risk encompasses the likelihood of that peril occurring and the potential consequences. Both terms are often used in insurance and safety contexts to evaluate and manage threats to property or individuals. Ultimately, they highlight the uncertainty surrounding adverse events and the importance of mitigation strategies.
To put in peril means to place someone or something in a situation of danger or risk. It implies exposing a person, object, or situation to potential harm, loss, or disaster. This phrase often conveys a sense of urgency or seriousness regarding the potential consequences of the action taken.

The peril of war is excluded from many insurance policies because it is considered an uninsurable risk due to its unpredictable and catastrophic nature. Insurers typically cannot accurately assess or price the potential losses associated with war, including widespread destruction and loss of life. Additionally, including war-related risks would lead to prohibitively high premiums and could destabilize the insurance market. By excluding this peril, insurers can maintain more stable operations and focus on risks that can be more easily managed and quantified.

As far as I understand it, peril and hazard are two different things when used in the insurance context. Consider a house built on a flood plain. In the event of a flood the house is damaged. The peril in this case is flooding while the hazard is the location of the house on the flood plain.
