(x) Declaring that no quarter will be given;
(xi) Subjecting persons who are in the power of another party to the conflict to physical mutilation

(f)
Paragraph 2 (e) applies to armed conflicts not of an international character and thus does not apply
to situations of internal disturbances and tensions, such as riots, isolated and sporadic acts of violence
or other acts of a similar nature. It applies to armed conflicts that take place in the territory of a State
when there is protracted armed conflict between governmental authorities and organized armed
groups or between such groups.
3.
Nothing in paragraph 2 (c) and (e) shall affect the responsibility of a Government to maintain or re-
establish law and order in the State or to defend the unity and territorial integrity of the State, by all
legitimate means.
