Unlawful Combatant: Rogue Soldier, Code 237

A person who directly engages in armed conflict in contravention of the rules of war and is therefore alleged to not be protected by the Geneva Conventions is referred to as an unlawful combatant, an illegal combatant, or an unprivileged combatant/belligerent. Any of these terms refer to the same individual.It has been brought to the attention of the International Committee of the Red Cross that the terms "unlawful combatant," "illegal combatant," and "unprivileged combatant/belligerent" are not articulated in any of the international accords that have been established. Additionally, the phrase "illegal combatant" does not occur in the Third Geneva Convention, despite the fact that the notion of an unlawful combatant is covered in the agreement. There are certain circumstances that can qualify a person for the status of prisoner of war, and Article 4 of the Third Geneva Convention does identify those circumstances. Other international treaties prohibit mercenaries and youngsters from being considered lawful combatants. These accords make this distinction.
