    I responded above I hope that provides enough. Though I didn’t speak to article a).

    It may sound like a legal cop-out but some countries make a distinction between “The Red Cross” and “a red Cross”. It’s a weird one. Probably requires more scrutiny.

    And as to your question of “Would this be a crime committed in war?” Or “A war crime?” That’s where lots of legalese comes in. It may be that one nation sees it as a crime where one doesn’t. Or the UN finds it a war crime but another organisation doesn’t or is a partial signatory or conscious observer and so on.

    This is then something I understand is moved into the restitution phase post war where both nations sit at the table and dole out various legal requirements, PW transfers and the likes. Like a two sided lawsuit but instead of just money it’s money and human lives.

    Which is nice.
