wilful killing

Read a random definition: foreign judgment

A quick definition of wilful killing:

Wilful killing is a very serious crime that happens during a war. It means that someone intentionally killed one or more people who were supposed to be protected by special rules called the Geneva Conventions. The person who did the killing knew that they were breaking these rules and the killing happened during a war that involved more than one country.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: "Wilful killing" is a war crime that is defined in the Rome Statute for the International Criminal Court. To prove a case of wilful killing, the following elements must be present:

For example, if a soldier intentionally kills a prisoner of war who is protected under the Geneva Conventions during an international armed conflict, this would be considered wilful killing and a war crime.

Another example would be if a military commander orders his troops to attack a civilian population that is protected under the Geneva Conventions during an international armed conflict, resulting in the deaths of innocent civilians. This would also be considered wilful killing and a war crime.

These examples illustrate the definition of wilful killing by showing that the victims were protected under the Geneva Conventions, the perpetrator knew of this protection, and the conduct was associated with an international armed conflict.
