Original Note:
Hamas militants often wear civilian clothing. This makes distinguishing between them and civilians difficult. https://stratcomcoe.org/cuploads/pfiles/hamas_human_shields.pdf According to the ICRC, in international armed conflicts, combatants have an obligation to distinguish themselves from the civilian population. http://casebook.icrc.org/a_to_z/glossary/uniform
