A quick definition of unlawful deportation and transfer:

Unlawful deportation and transfer is a very bad thing that can happen during a war. It means that someone has taken people away from their homes and moved them to another place, without their permission. This is against the rules of war and is a crime that can be punished by a special court. To prove that this crime happened, the court needs to show that the people who were taken away were supposed to be protected by special rules, and that the crime happened during a big war between different countries.

A more thorough explanation:

Unlawful deportation and transfer

"Unlawful deportation and transfer" is a serious crime that can be punished by the International Criminal Court. It happens during a war and involves moving people from one place to another without their consent. The people who are moved are usually protected by the Geneva Conventions of 1949, which are international laws that protect people during wars.

To be considered unlawful deportation and transfer, the following must be proven:

  • The person who did it moved the victims to another place or country
  • The victims were protected by the Geneva Conventions of 1949
  • The crime happened during an international armed conflict

During the Bosnian War, Serbian forces forcibly removed Bosniak and Croat civilians from their homes and transported them to detention camps. This is an example of unlawful deportation and transfer because the victims were moved without their consent and were protected by the Geneva Conventions of 1949.

In 2017, the Myanmar military forced over 700,000 Rohingya Muslims to flee to Bangladesh. This is also an example of unlawful deportation and transfer because the Rohingya were moved without their consent and were protected by the Geneva Conventions of 1949.

These examples illustrate how people can be forcibly moved during a war and how this is a serious crime that violates international law.
