battlefield

In the past, the Supreme Court has made clear that during wartime the government can detain indefinitely people who were picked up on the battlefield.

Francis, by contrast, likened the church to a battlefield hospital tending to the spiritually wounded.

He ruled that “a wartime president can indefinitely detain a United States citizen captured as an enemy combatant on the battlefield and deny that person access to a lawyer.”

But the problem for defending forces, as President Zelensky admits, is the battlefield realities being lost on a wider audience.

At this stage in the war, battlefield casualties on both sides inflicted by drones "way outnumber those inflicted by artillery", the UK defence secretary said.
