The thesis, which was discussed in the presence of the Dean of the College of Law and Political Science, Assistant Professor Dr. Murad Saeb Mahmoud, aimed to address the nature of non-international armed conflicts and distinguish them from other conflicts, the justifications that the UN Security Council has for intervening to confront non-international conflicts to search for ways to end them, and to search for the rights of minorities within the human rights system and guarantees for their protection.
The thesis concluded that the guarantees provided by international law applied in non-international armed conflicts are very weak and lack the convention rules
