Targeted Killing: Violation of Non-Reciprocity in Fundamental Obligations of Humanitarian Law and Human Rights
The practice of targeting some persons and killing them has been criticized in recent years in the international community. Now targeted killing is defined as the use of lethal force attributable to a subject of international law with the intent, premeditation and deliberation to kill individually selected persons who are not in the physical custody of those targeting them and recognized as a clear violation of international human rights and international humanitarian law. It violates some fundamental rights of human beings such right to life and right to fair trial. Some basic rules of humanitarian law are also in conflict with this policy, for example it opposes the obligation of state for protection of civilians in armed conflicts and violates the principle of proportionality. UN human rights experts challenge targeted killing policies and consider it in relation to extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary Executions. Therefore non-Justiciability of the policy of targeted killing is reaffirmed in humanitarian law and human rights.
