Prisoner Of War Camp
A Prisoner of War Camp (POW camp) is a facility where military personnel captured during armed conflict are held. These camps are designed to detain enemy combatants and are governed by international laws, such as the Geneva Conventions, which outline the treatment of prisoners. Conditions in POW camps can vary widely, depending on the country and the specific circumstances of the conflict.
In a POW camp, prisoners are typically provided with basic necessities like food, shelter, and medical care, although the quality can differ significantly. The purpose of these camps is to prevent captured soldiers from rejoining their forces while ensuring their humane treatment, as mandated by international humanitarian law.
