Iran's Strikes on Kurdish Parties Raise Questions on International Law
Original: Iran’s Strikes on Kurdish Parties: CCF’s Unenforceability as a Sign of Structural Inequality in IHL
Legal commentators are examining Iran's strikes on Kurdish opposition parties based in Iraq, arguing the strikes highlight the unenforceability of the customary international law principle of distinction and the wider structural inequality in international humanitarian law. The discussion suggests weaker states and non-state groups face accountability standards that powerful states can evade, prompting debate over whether IHL rules apply equally in practice.
Why now: Iran's strikes on Kurdish parties have reignited debate about selective enforcement and structural bias in international humanitarian law.
