United Nations, regional and domestic counterterrorism measures have generated a cascade of adverse effects for impartial humanitarian activities in areas where designated groups are present. Certain humanitarian activities, diverted supplies and incidental payments can fall foul of broadly worded counterterrorism regulation proscribing or criminalizing financial and other support to designated groups. Donors to humanitarian organizations set strict conditions and financial institutions decline transactions, hampering impartial humanitarian activities in the very instances in which international humanitarian law (IHL) requires that they be allowed. Recognizing this, United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions 2462 and 2482 adopted in 2019 have spelled out more explicitly than ever before the need for counterterrorism measures to comply with IHL and safeguard impartial humanitarian action in line with IHL. This article sets out those IHL obligations that govern humanitarian and medical activities and the types of safeguards that States have put in place to ensure their counterterrorism measures comply with IHL and allow for these activities. The UNSC's latest steer in resolutions 2462 and 2482 provides a foundation for States’ exclusion of impartial humanitarian and medical activities from the scope of application of their counterterrorism measures. This can be an effective way of averting adverse consequences for these activities where designated entities are present.

在反恐措施中尊重国际人道主义法和维护人道主义行动：联合国安理会第 2462 和 2482 号决议指明了方向

联合国、区域和国内反恐措施对指定团体所在地区的公正人道主义活动产生了一系列不利影响。某些人道主义活动、转移的物资和附带的付款可能会违反措辞宽泛的反恐法规，该法规禁止或将向指定团体提供财政和其他支持，或将其定为犯罪。人道组织的捐助者设定了严格的条件，金融机构拒绝交易，在国际人道法 (IHL) 要求允许的情况下妨碍公正的人道活动。认识到这一点，联合国安理会 (UNSC) 2019 年通过的第 2462 和 2482 号决议比以往任何时候都更加明确地阐明了反恐措施的必要性，以遵守国际人道法并保障符合国际人道法的公正人道行动。本文阐述了管理人道主义和医疗活动的国际人道法义务，以及各国为确保其反恐措施符合国际人道法并允许开展这些活动而实施的保障措施类型。联合国安理会第 2462 和 2482 号决议的最新指导为各国将公正的人道主义和医疗活动排除在其反恐措施的适用范围之外奠定了基础。在指定实体存在的情况下，这可能是避免对这些活动造成不利后果的有效方式。
