Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The study aimed to identify the most significant violations of human rights related to the human body in Palestinian territories and to present them in accordance with international humanitarian law. The study followed a Descriptive approach and was divided into an introduction and two chapters. The first chapter clarified the nature of international humanitarian law, while the second chapter explained the rights related to the human body under international humanitarian law. The study concluded several findings, the most important of which are: The Palestinian people's struggle against the Israeli occupation is considered a national liberation war and, in this regard, is recognized as an international armed conflict, thus subject to the laws of war in general. This is because the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories is considered foreign occupation and an apartheid system. Furthermore, the four Geneva Conventions of 1949 and the two Additional Protocols of 1977 provide a set of general and specific rights and principles aimed at protecting certain vulnerable groups in times of war and conflict. Based on these findings, the study made several recommendations, the most important of which are: the need to reframe international agreements that ensure the protection of civilians during conflicts and wars, and to include provisions for penalties, punishment, and mechanisms for enforcement to enhance the respect for these agreements.
