Furthermore,
Section 27-10 of the Army Field Manual states that "maltreatment of dead bodies" is a war crime. When the Army jeep drove over the dead body, it violated this provision.
Again, you're welcome.
I disagree with that assessment. You are assuming that the event was intentional. I have doubts that the drivers even realized what they did. I believe that the vehicle was an MRAP and if it was – I can tell you that you have virtually no vision in those of the ground and even less awareness of anything you hit. We had a soldier in Kandahar that was hit and killed while crossing the road from an MRAP. The driver did not know until they found the body and tracked down the incident. Not only did he never see the individu8al (and it was a front end strike) but the driver AND passengers never heard or noticed anything at all.
The vehicle is anything but small:
