Under the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia’s Military Manual (1988), it is prohibited to attack, destroy, remove or render useless objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population, with the intent to deprive the population of those objects, regardless of the motive (in order to starve the population, to force it to move or for any other motive). The manual gives the following examples of objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population: agricultural areas, places of food production, crops, livestock, drinking water installations, reservoirs for drinking water and irrigation works.
