    Should be noted that this doesn’t change the protections afforded to medical care workers. It is still a war crime.

      I feel like this must be the case but I’ve seen so many people argue otherwise here. Do you have a source for this? It seems obvious but apparently not

        It was on a recent PBS NewsHour interview with a human rights lawyer, if I recall. I’ll edit this if I can find it from this past week.

          Thanks! I saw some comments from lawyers on the news too, seems like there is at least some general agreement.
