Prisoner-of-war camps are detention facilities where captured soldiers are kept by the enemy during conflicts. Synonyms for the term include war captivity, captivity camps, detention centers, internment camps, and POW camps. These camps are usually established by authorities of the country where the war is being fought. In these camps, prisoners are subjected to certain restrictions as they are considered enemies of the state. They are given food and shelter but are restricted from other freedom privileges. They are usually released at the end of the conflict, and many prisoners are traumatized by their experience in these camps.
