State Department: investigations of potential international humanitarian law violations will continue after transition
Summary
The State Department said its obligation to investigate incidents involving potential violations of international humanitarian law does not expire with the presidential transition and that ongoing inquiries will be handed to the next administration if they are not finished.
State Department spokesperson said the department is working to reach definitive answers on a number of incidents under review and that “the obligation that the state department has to investigate potential violations of international humanitarian law through the use of US weapons are not obligations that expire on January 20th. They're obligations that carry over from this administration to the next administration.”
