Original Note:
The Highway of Death was an attack on Iraqi forces retreating from Kuwait, not surrendering, helpless, or otherwise non-participating forces, and thus they were valid military targets. No proof of war crimes there in the first Gulf War has been made public. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_of_Death https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/customary-ihl/v1/rule47
