Abstract
The International Institute of Humanitarian Law welcomes with great interest this military manual published under the auspices of UNESCO, which marks a significant step towards a more tangible dissemination and effective application of the principles and rules governing the international protection of cultural property in the event of armed conflict. The destruction of cultural property in the course of armed conflicts has been all too common in recent years, with repeated, egregious violations of the existing international legal rules aimed at safeguarding the cultural heritage of all mankind. Such crimes highlight an urgent need to encourage and ensure the implementation of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural property in the Event of Armed Conflict and of its 1999 Second Protocol, as well as of the overall international regime regarding the protection of cultural property.
