Humanitarian Law on Trial: Gaza, AI Warfare, and Global Accountability
In this episode, we delve into the complex and urgent questions surrounding the conflict in Gaza and the broader implications for international humanitarian law. From António Guterres’ powerful statement that “international humanitarian law is not an à la carte menu” to the controversial use of AI in military targeting by the IDF, we explore the legal, ethical, and technological dimensions of modern warfare.
We also examine the unprecedented involvement of both the ICC and ICJ, the role of European states under the Geneva Conventions, and whether the current global response signals the erosion—or evolution—of humanitarian law in real time.
Our guest today is Vincent Chetail, Professor of International Law and Director of the Global Migration Centre at the Geneva Graduate Institute.
