This work investigates the role that the international law plays in securing the freedom of expression and the media in protecting the journalists while performing their professional activities during armed conflicts. Every journalist is entitled to legal protection while conducting his/her business, i.e. reporting to the world about the events they witness. Although the international legal provisions regarding war reporting seem transparent and adequate, they are very often difficult to implement in practice and to understand objectively by the opposing parties. This is particularly evident in situations when journalists, faced with war atrocities, find it challenging to remain impartial in their reporting.
