@tjm585 Thank you, this is an excellent point. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
@tjm585 makes an excellent point on this. They probably count as a levee en masse--particularly to the extent they are under direct government command and control--and as such qualify for POW protections. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
@tjm585 Yeah, this is a good point. To the extent they are a levee en masse, they have to be treated as POWs. — PolitiTweet.org

Complicated question. They are wearing those armbands to comply with the Geneva Convention’s requirement that combatants wear insignias visible at a distance. That said, I think they are probably not POW. They are protected persons under GCIV. — PolitiTweet.org

Not detail, of course, detain. Not sure why my autocorrect hates the law of armed conflict. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
@DavBatz So that’s an interesting question. One assumes those Russian convoys have anti-aircraft capacities, against which Predators are sitting ducks. Then again, given that they don’t have fuel, perhaps not. A Ukrainian drone did his one convoy the other day so your point has merit. — PolitiTweet.org

Hostage taking, by contrast, involves some threat to those people: we will kill or hurt detainees unless x, y, or z. Or we will hold civilians in detention who pose no threat unless you do c, y, or z. Hostage taking is a grave violation of the laws of war. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
Legitimate security reasons to detail civilians under certain circumstances too—for example if they are plotting violence or attacking forces. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
Great question: detention is a lawful and appropriate tool under the law of armed conflict. Because it is lawful to kill the enemy soldier, it is actually favored to detail that person instead. And the Fourth convention recognizes that the occupying power will have — PolitiTweet.org

extent they are not, they are civilians participating in hostilities, subject to targeting and detention. Hostage taking is, however, in all circumstances, a very serious violation of the laws of armed conflict. — PolitiTweet.org
