Use Of Force Authorization

Use of Force Authorization is a formal legal mandate issued by the United Nations Security Council that grants state or international actors the legitimate authority to employ military force in a specific context, distinguishing it from other forms of authorization by its grounding in Chapter VII of the UN Charter and its function in legitimizing otherwise prohibited uses of force under international law.
