Let's not lose sight of the recent past.
WW2 to be exact.
We must move on and not create a lawyers picnic.
What goes on in the battlefield - stays in the battlefield.

From the past - Innocent civilians were deliberately killed.

The bombing of Dresden was a British-American aerial bombing attack on the city of Dresden, the capital of the German state of Saxony, during World War II. In four raids between 13 and 15 February 1945, 722 heavy bombers of the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and 527 of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) dropped more than 3,900 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary devices on the city.^[1] The bombing and the resulting firestorm destroyed more than 1,600 acres (6.5 km²) of the city centre.^[2] An estimated 22,700^[3] to 25,000^[4] people were killed.

More Innocent civilians were deliberately killed.

The United States detonated two nuclear weapons over the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945, respectively. The two bombings killed between 129,000 and 226,000 people, most of whom were civilians, and remain the only use of nuclear weapons in armed conflict.
