Abstract:
This Guidance document sets out the basic rules of international law regulating humanitarian relief operations in situations of armed conflict. It focuses primarily on international humanitarian law, but also considers other areas of public international law that may be relevant to such operations, particularly international human rights law and the rules on state sovereignty, territorial integrity, and the responsibility of states and international organisations for internationally wrongful acts. Subjects covered include offers of services, consent to humanitarian relief operations and consequences of unlawful impeding of humanitarian relief operations. The Guidance is presented in the form of a narrative commentary on the law, and a set of 'Conclusions' laying out the key principles of law.
