Peace be upon you and God's mercy and blessings.
Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may God protect them):
If the jihad is sanctioned by the legitimate ruler, it is essential to consult with those responsible for managing the war to determine these matters. Consequently, that authority bears responsibility for these issues if they have ordered such actions. They may deem it necessary to kill a fleeing enemy to prevent them from returning to fight against Muslims.
May you be successful in all good.
