Abstract
With the developments taking place in the field of human life, interest in modern human rights has increased, especially within constitutions that adopt a democratic approach. The constitutional legislator has devoted chapters or sections in the constitution to regulating these rights. From this perspective, it can be observed that the constitutional approach to civil rights has begun to take shape in modern constitutional documents, as well as through the amendments introduced to those documents. Therefore, the right to humanitarian assistance is the constitutionally agreed-upon model, as it belongs to the third generation of rights, which is based on the obligation of states to provide food aid, health care, and other essential needs to citizens during times of crisis. Among these constitutions is the Constitution of the Republic of Iraq of 2005, which includes aspects of this right in its various articles.
