Abstract

The interrelation between International humanitarian law (IHL) and Human rights law has been questioned during the present era, particularly by authors and scholars who would like to strengthen the role of human rights law as a regulatory framework for the conduct of hostilities. The practical difficulties of ensuring respect for IHL through the existing channels of enforcement have helped some authors to advocate and propose the direct application of Human rights law to the conduct of hostilities, and the enforcement of IHL through the international human rights machinery. Although this approach cannot be underestimated, its potential is far more limited than it may appear in reality.
