Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

This allways confuses me, if you don't want a huge mountain of dirty clothes to be seen, do the laundry from time to time.
I get it, in war/combat bad shit happens, but when it does happen investigate it properly and analyze the cause of the bad shit.
Only when you have that knowledge can you hope to do better.
Soldiers commiting crimes in other nations, that shit needs to be stamped out and the soldiers need to understand how their behavior affects their own ability to their job.
Usually they are "in too deep". If you start investigating properly then you wont just have to jail some low level soldiers, you will have to jail high ranking leaders and maybe even some politicians.
Anyone that has been covering for these criminals will also need to be punished. So their only option is to never admit anything happened because the consequences are just too big.
It wont get any better by not doing it
Oh yeah absolutely, im just trying say that they are corrupt through and through, thats why it will never happen unless the goverment drastically changes.
That is unfortunarely a resonable estimation of events
