Air bombings committed during World War II are still the subject of lively political and historical discussions. The scale of damage done by the air force in this conflict raises questions about the importance of international law in force in armed conflicts, especially its role in reducing the atrocities of war and protecting those who do not participate in hostilities. This article is an attempt to answer the question about the scope of the legal regime to which the phenomenon of air bombing was subjected.
