Abstract
Human rights violations in military and political conflicts are a global concern that continues to affect individuals and communities on a large scale. This abstract provides a concise overview of the key issues related to this complex problem. Military and political conflicts often lead to widespread human rights abuses, including extrajudicial killings, torture, displacement, and sexual violence. These violations have a profound and lasting impact on civilians, causing loss of life, trauma, and societal upheaval. The international community has established a robust framework of human rights laws and treaties, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Geneva Conventions, which provide a basis for safeguarding human rights even during armed conflicts. However, achieving accountability for perpetrators of human rights violations remains a challenge, with issues such as impunity and political influence hindering justice. Preventing human rights violations necessitates addressing the root causes of conflicts, promoting diplomacy, and resolving underlying grievances. The "Responsibility to Protect" principle underscores the international community's duty to intervene when states fail to protect their citizens from mass atrocities. Civil society organizations, activists, and human rights defenders play a pivotal role in documenting abuses, advocating for justice, and pressuring authorities and international bodies to address human rights violations. In post-conflict settings, restorative justice mechanisms, including truth and reconciliation commissions, reparations, and memorialization efforts, can help rebuild trust and foster reconciliation among conflicting parties. Addressing human rights violations in military and political conflicts requires a multifaceted approach that respects international human rights norms, holds perpetrators accountable, prevents conflicts, and supports the healing and reconciliation of affected communities. International cooperation, political commitment, and a steadfast dedication to human rights are indispensable in working towards a world where such violations are minimized and eventually eradicated.
