In general, free fire zone is an area where all friendly forces had been supposedly cleared, and any remaining people were hostile. Within its borders, military action could be used for a complete annihilation of any movable or other military objectives. Any civilians living in A FFZ were warned that it had become a free fire zone by loudspeaker, leaflet drops from low flying aircraft, visits and infantry sweeps. Noncombatants were asked to seek safety in the so called protected villages. 18
