Humanitarian Exemptions

Humanitarian exemptions are special permissions that allow individuals or organizations to bypass certain restrictions, such as sanctions or trade bans, due to urgent humanitarian needs. These exemptions enable the delivery of essential aid, medical supplies, or support to vulnerable populations without penalizing the providers. They are granted by government authorities or international bodies to ensure that humanitarian efforts can proceed effectively, balancing the enforcement of regulations with the imperative to prevent suffering and ensure access to lifesaving assistance.
