<br/><br/> In 2022, the International Law Commission adopted the draft principles on the Protection of the Environment in Relation to Armed Conflict, including provisions to safeguard indigenous peoples’ environments and designate them as protected zones. This article examines their scope through a case study of Ladakh, a fragile Himalayan ecosystem disputed between India, Pakistan, and China, and argues for its designation as a transboundary protected area.-Reproduced <br/><br/>https://www.epw.in/journal/perspectives/environmental-protection-during-armed-conflict-and.html<br/>
