    The Sudan Armed Conflict And Geneva Convention On Laws Of War
    (Journal of Namibian Studies, 35 S1, 2023) Osimen Goddy U.; DELE-DADA MOYOSOLUWA PRISCILIA
    The Geneva Convention establishes guidelines for the conduct of war and the protection of civilians. Nonetheless, the convention is still regularly broken in current wars. This research examines how effectively the Geneva Convention was observed during the conflict in Sudan. The findings reveal several instances of violations throughout the Sudan conflict, such as indiscriminate attacks on civilians, the recruitment of minors, the use of illegal weapons, and even genocidal crimes. It has been established that the Geneva Convention is still applicable, but is routinely ignored in contemporary conflicts such those in Syria, Yemen, and Myanmar. This study concludes that it is crucial for all actors in international system to abide by the dictates of the convention and that those who break them must face the consequences

    Artificial intelligence and arms control in modern warfare
    (Cogent Social Sciences (Taylor & Francis), 2024-09) Osimen Goddy U.; Newo Oluwamurewa; Fulani Oluwakemi Morola
    This work assesses the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on modern warfare. AI has led to a new arms race, which has impacted military dynamics among the superpowers in the 21st century. The study aims to evaluate the propagation of AI-powered weapons from the vantage point of ethics, international humanitarian law, and arms control. Secondary data is engaged for this study, and the exploratory and descriptive research design is adopted alongside a thematic analysis for data synthesis. The theories of technological determinism and consequentialism are adopted to observe the effects of technological advancement on weaponry alongside the ethical consequences of these weapons to safeguard human rights in combat scenarios. The study discovered that AI has led to a new arms race among the superpowers, and there is a need to advocate for arms control measures to promote international peace and security. The intersection between AI and arms proliferation, as well as how it has affected peace and security dynamics, was also detailed. The work concludes by reasserting the need for substantive international humanitarian laws and arms control efforts for lethal and autonomous weapons.
