This is what was and may still be happening, all with approval. (well atleast until they're caught.. then the stories change)

Dispite the unpleasantness of all of that, I believe that most of that is largely legal as for what is held by international.
At any rate they aren't beating them or executing them, that shows a lot of restraint considering the stakes.
