It seems completely obvious that humanitarian law also covers cyber attacks. Rule 15. In the conduct of military operations, constant care must be taken to spare the civilian population, civilians and civilian objects. All feasible precautions must be taken to avoid, and in any event to minimize, incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians and damage to civilian objects. Disabling a hospital by attacking its IT obviously will lead to loss of life of injury and is thus, other factors notwithstanding, not permissible. If you attack power infrastructure (using bombs or by hacking, doesn't matter), that's probably also a war crime because it's indiscriminate and, among other things, affects hospital and other civilian infrastructure. https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v1/rule15 https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v1/rule15 https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v1 https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v1
