Abstract EN

The rules of international humanitarian law provide the necessary protection for the environment in times of war, and this is by setting the necessary legal mechanisms to provide them, and therefore the people of international law must work to devote these rules by making the protection of the environment a priority during military operations, and this is by stating the status of the environment and the means of protecting it Here, we point out that this protection requires the concerted efforts of everyone, because the annihilation of the environment is the annihilation of all humanity.

Thus, all the principles of international humanitarian law came to protect the environment, even if this protection was implicit and not explicitSince the purpose of the rules of international humanitarian law is to protect civilians during international or non-international military operations, the living conscience calls upon the peoples, in particular the engines of war in the world, to provide some protection for the environment in all its components.
