International Committee of the Red Cross

Two New Publications in Arabic

The International Review has in the past announced the publication by the ICRC of books in Arabic. In 1972, for example, the Review mentioned three booklets: one of thirteen pages containing a summary of the draft Protocols which have since been submitted to the Diplomatic Conference; another of 22 pages containing the articles of the 1949 Geneva Conventions relating to the display of the red cross and red crescent emblems; finally, a study of 14 pages in which the author demonstrated that some of the principles underlying the Geneva Conventions were recognized and affirmed in the Koran.
