Second Geneva Convention



Wikisource has original text related to this article:
Second Geneva Convention

The Second Geneva Convention of 1906, "Convention for the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded in Armies in the Field" (Geneva, 6 July 1906) extended the principles from the First Geneva Convention of 1864 on the treatment of battlefield casualties. The Convention of 1906 should not be confused with "Convention (II) for the Amelioration of the Condition of Wounded, Sick and Shipwrecked Members of Armed Forces at Sea" (Geneva, 12 August 1949).

As of 27 June 2006, when Nauru adopted the convention, it has been ratified by 194 countries.
