"Purity of Arms" (Morality in Warfare) - The soldier shall make use of
his weaponry and power only for the fulfillment of the mission and
solely to the extent required; he will maintain his humanity even in
combat. The soldier shall not employ his weaponry and power in order to
harm non-combatants or prisoners of war, and shall do all he can to
avoid harming their lives, body, honor and property.
