international humanitarian law is based on a number of treaties, notably the Geneva conventions of 1949 and their additional protocols, as well as a series of conventions and protocols others that cover certain aspects, international law regulates the methods and means of warfare.

the law aims to achieve a balance between legitimate military action and the humanitarian objective of alleviating the suffering of people, especially among civilians.

therefore, both the concepts of occupation and neutrality have gained an important place in international humanitarian law.
