Dr Hoshman Ismail writes for the Birmingham Law School research blog.
Recent developments in Syria have raised renewed concerns about the protection of ethnic and religious minorities under international law. This contribution by Dr Hoshman Ismail examines the situation through the lens of international law, focusing on whether emerging patterns of violence under a new de facto authority engage the legal frameworks of genocide and ethnic cleansing and, crucially, whether the international duty of prevention has now been triggered.
