Right to health in conflict situations 2013, para. 3
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Armed conflict is divided into international armed conflict - where there is "resort to armed force between States", and non-international armed conflict - where there is "protracted violence" involving at least one non-State organized armed group. In both situations, international humanitarian law prescribes rules of conduct for States and non-State organized armed groups that are parties to the conflict. These govern circumstances such as the conduct of hostilities, treatment of prisoners, guarantees of fundamental rights such as access to justice and treatment of civilians and civilian property.
