ai generated text
The Geneva Conventions are international humanitarian laws consisting of four treaties and three additional protocols that establish international legal standards for humanitarian treatment in war. The conventions define the basic rights of wartime prisoners, civilians, and military personnel, and provide protections for the wounded and sick, as well as civilians in and around a war-zone. The treaties of 1949 were ratified by 196 countries, and the conventions concern only protected non-combatants in war. The Geneva Conventions were established in response to the horrors of war, with the first convention adopted in 1864 and subsequent updates in 1906 and 1929, with the most recent version being the 1949 conventions.learn more on wikipedia
