Belligerent occupation is the temporary, hostile control of one state's territory by another state's armed forces during an armed conflict, where the occupying power exercises "effective control" without the consent of the local sovereign, distinct from annexation and governed strictly by international humanitarian law (IHL) like the Hague Regulations and Geneva Conventions to protect civilians and regulate the occupant's responsibilities.
However, the use of the term "occupation" is overdue, as the situation has been a de facto annexation for years.
- The term "crimes" refers to acts unrelated to breaches of rules but to criminal acts and activities.
