The training of military personnel in International Humanitarian Law (IHL) holds critical significance in South Asia, a region characterized by a complex security environment, frequent border disputes, insurgencies, and internal conflicts. IHL, also known as the law of armed conflict, provides the legal and ethical framework governing the conduct of hostilities, aiming to limit the effects of armed conflict on civilians, prisoners of war, and other non-combatants.
