What rules do peacekeepers follow?

Peacekeepers operate under a framework of principles established by the United Nations, including consent of the host country, impartiality, and the use of force only in self-defense or to protect civilians. They adhere to international humanitarian law and human rights standards, ensuring the protection of non-combatants. Additionally, peacekeepers are expected to maintain neutrality and work collaboratively with local authorities and communities to foster peace and stability.
