I don't claim to be anything close to an expert in international law, but I think there's some controversy around the question of whether captured Hamas soldiers are prisoners of war.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu constantly refers to the "the war". Therefore Hamas soldiers are PoWs. He can't have it both ways.
Except this photo was from 2010, so how people are defining the current "war" doesn't matter.
This war has been ongoing since 1948.
