Development for Extraterritorial operation - "Military" section

edit

While extraterritorial law enforcement activity is highly restricted and subject to the approval of the 'host' state, military operations ; as Stigall points out, the criteria for a 'just' war (jus ad bellum) , so the laws of armed conflict "presuppose[s] extraterritoriality".[1] So "[i]f the circumstances exist for the lawful use of force under jus ad bellum, then so long as a state abides by the rules articulated in jus in bello [the law of war], that state’s extraterritorial actions are considered lawful."[1]
