  ensuring the adequate living conditions of the civilian population by maintaining essential public utility
  services, distributing relief, providing medical care, and organizing rescues (GC art. 63).
  RELIEF SOCIETIES AND PROTECTED PERSONS
  6-92. Protected persons must have the ability to apply to the protecting powers, the ICRC, and the National
  Red Cross or Red Crescent Society of the country where they may be, as well as to any society or organization
  that might assist them. Within the bounds set by military or security considerations, the authorities must grant
  these several organizations all facilities for that purpose. Apart from the visits on behalf of protected persons
  by the delegates of the protecting powers and of the ICRC provided for by the GC (GC art. 143) as described
  in paragraph 1-113, the detaining or Occupying Power must facilitate as much as possible visits to protected
  persons by the representatives of other organizations whose object is to give spiritual aid or material relief to
  such persons (GC art. 142; consider AP I art. 81).
  RELIEF SOCIETIES AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS
  6-93. Subject to measures that the detaining powers, including Occupying Powers may consider essential to
  security or other reasonable need, the representatives of religious organizations, relief societies, or other
  organizations assisting the protected persons must receive from these powers, for themselves or their duly
  accredited agents, all facilities for visiting protected persons, for distributing relief supplies and material from
  any source intended for educational, recreational, or religious purposes, or for assisting them in organizing
  their leisure time within the places of internment. Such societies or organizations may be constituted in the
  territory of the detaining power, or in any other country, or they may have an international character. The
  detaining power, including the Occupying Powers, may limit the number of societies and organizations
  whose delegates are allowed to carry out activities in its territory and under its supervision, on condition,
  however, that such limitation ay not hinder the supply of effective and adequate relief to all protected persons.
  The special position of the ICRC must be recognized and respected at all times (GC art. 142; consider AP I
  art. 81). In addition, such personnel should be respected, protected, and assisted in their mission to the fullest
  extent practicable. The activities of the relief personnel should only be limited or their movements
  temporarily restricted in the case of imperative military necessity (consider AP I art. 71).
  SUPERVISION BY PROTECTING POWERS
  6-94. Representatives or delegates of the protecting powers must be permitted to go to all places where
  protected persons are located, particularly to places of internment, detention, and work. They must have
  access to all premises occupied by protected persons and must be able to interview them without witnesses.
  Such visits may not be prohibited except for reasons of imperative military necessity, and then only as an
  exceptional and temporary measure. The duration and frequency of such visits must not be restricted (GC
  art. 143).
  TREATMENT OF ENEMY PROPERTY
  6-95. An Occupying Power has certain rights, and assumes certain obligations, with respect to the property
  of its enemy, including the property of the inhabitants of the occupied territory.
  DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY
  6-96. The general prohibitions against pillage and wanton destruction of enemy property that apply to
  military operations also apply to the occupation of enemy territory. Further, any destruction by the Occupying
  Power of real (immoveable) or personal (moveable) property belonging individually or collectively to private
  persons, to the Occupied State, to other public authorities, or to social or cooperative organizations is
  prohibited except where such destruction is rendered absolutely necessary by military operations (GC art.
  53). The GC identifies “extensive destruction . . . of property, not justified by military necessity and carried
  out unlawfully and wantonly” as a grave breach (GC art. 147).
  6-97. Although wanton destruction is prohibited, LOAC does not prohibit the destruction of property when
  absolutely necessary or imperatively demanded for military reasons. The evaluation of whether destruction
