The Responsibility to Protect doctrine (R2P), has faced considerable criticisms because of the way it has been implemented in Libya, and its inaction in Syria. The destruction that resulted from the NATO intervention in Libya led to a lot of varying reactions from the international community and divisions in the UN Security Council. Given the extent of gross human rights violations Gaza is currently facing in the wake of October the 7th attacks, it will be interesting to look at whether R2P can be invoked to protect the people of Gaza.en© 2023 University of Pretoria.
