Abstract

This article explores the problem addressing the application of international humanitarian law for legal qualification of uses of “new” means and methods of warfare. Author alleges that any new mean or method of warfare has to be considered legally as a “new” until a statistical data related to the consequences of its use on the battlefield unveiled and compared to the consequences of the use of well-known means and methods of warfare.
