Cyber ops in armed conflict are a worrying reality. No question: #IHL imposes limited.

Consideramos fundamental que el respeto a los heridos, a la asistencia en salud y a la acción humanitaria imparcial sean incluidos en las agendas de los diálogos que se adelantan con distintos actores armados en Colombia.
