We have just updated the customary IHL database to include additional practice from Canada and India.
The database contains:
- the 161 rules of customary IHL identified in the ICRC's 2005 customary IHL study;
- the practice underlying that study;
- regular updates reflecting national and international practice in the field of IHL.
