A group of former military #attorneys [ #JAG] who have scrutinized the #Trump administration’s #military activities in #LatinAmerica released an assessment Saturday outlining relevant international & domestic laws, & said that regardless of whether the #US is in an armed conflict, conducting law enforcement or other military operations, the targeting of defenseless people is prohibited.

Under the circumstances The Post reported, “not only does #InternationalLaw prohibit targeting these survivors, but it also requires the attacking force to protect, rescue, &, if applicable, treat them as prisoners of war,” the group said in a statement circulated to news media. “Violations of these obligations are #WarCrimes, #murder, or both. There are no other options.”
