Original Note:
“Palestine” is not a nation or state, and does not field an Army capable of taking prisoners of war under the Geneva Convention. These girls are hostages. Also, there was no war when the girls were taken on October 7. They were kidnapped as part of a terror attack. https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/geneva-convention-relative-treatment-prisoners-war https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/10/hamas-hostage-taking-manual/675691/ https://www.state.gov/secretary-antony-j-blinken-at-a-press-availability-43/
