Dear friends,
Welcome to our April issue of the ALMA Newsletter, which includes the most recent news, updates and developments on International Humanitarian Law (IHL). In the aftermath of the American strike on a Syrian airfield, commentators continue to debate the legal basis for this practice. Accordingly, this Newsletter is dedicated, in part, to the contributions concerning recent practice in IHL. We would also take the opportunity to congratulate the winners of the 29th Jean Pictet IHL Competition - Buenos Aires University, and the 4th Clara Barton IHL Competition - University of Minnesota.
As always, you are welcome to keep in touch via our Facebook page and twitter. In order to subscribe to our mailing list please click here. Season's greetings, Ido Rosenzweig ALMA Chairman.
