The rules of war, also known as international humanitarian law: Recognize the right of civilians to be protected from the dangers of war
and receive the help they need. Every possible care must be taken to
avoid harming them or their houses, or destroying their means of
survival, such as water sources, crops, livestock, etc.
The rules of war are universal. The Geneva Conventions (which are the core element of IHL) have been ratified by all 196 states. Very few international treaties have this level of support.
