Original Note:
RE: the proposed comments. Hamas has no legal basis to take prisoners of war (POWs).Hamas is not a military from a recognized nation.It does not have the right under international law to take IDF soldiers as POWs. Side note: POW's would still have certain rights. See link below https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/geneva-convention-relative-treatment-prisoners-war
