Got a Real-World Weapon, Armour or Tactics Question? Mk. XXVIII

Like the Red Cross/Crescent? Generally speaking the giant red symbol and white outfits are a dead give away they aren't the enemy. That's the point of the Red Cross, make it immediately apparent that they aren't there to fight, be highly visible to avoid accidentally drawing fire, and running away when actual fighting starts.

It is also a dead give-away that here are people we can rob and kill.

Sadly when one or both sides are unscrupulous the red cross is more of targeting aid than deterrent.

A brushwar with PMCs sounds exactly like the place for that to happen. Like not too long ago in Kongo (or whatever it is calling itself this week).
