Tashtemirova N.A. The ratio of limits of international legal prohibition of use of force, and protection of civilians on the example of Yemen

Abstract: The subject of this research is the theoretical and practical aspects of the position of rights and protection of civilian population during an armed conflict (on the example of Yemen). A special attention is given to the cooperation of regional organizations and the United Nations on the issue of use of force within international relations, and the practical application of Article 51 of the UN Charter. The postulation of the main problem is the ethics of use of force for the purpose of helping the civilian population, as well as the need to limit the means such as airstrikes and other means with low-precision destruction. The following conclusion is made: the only possible way to protect the civilian population can be ensured within the framework of a country through the creation of a working mechanism for holding parties accountable for serious violations of the norms of international humanitarian law and human rights during peace time, as well as during an armed conflict.
