Yes, just like Afghanistan. Is it possible that the "occupying powers" have no ability to evacuate US citizens? With Musk tweeting 11.4.1 yesterday, does that refer to The Law of War Manual? sigh.. So many questions and so much to dig for. Thanks for the news!

11.4.1 Right of the Occupying Power to Govern the Enemy Territory Temporarily. The right to govern the territory of the enemy during its military occupation is one of the incidents of war. By the fact of occupation (i.e., the Occupying PowerтАЩs established power over occupied territory), the Occupying Power is conferred the authority to exercise some of the rights of sovereignty. The exercise of these sovereign rights also results from the necessity of maintaining law and order, indispensable both to the inhabitants and to the occupying force, and the failure or inability of the legitimate government to exercise its functions, or the undesirability of allowing it to do so.

In case anyone is wondering...
