When it comes to those detained prisoners, I would harshly interrogate them, day and night until they confess, but I would not keep those 6 close to each other in order to have no communication with each other no matter what. If nothing happens and they do not cooperate, then I would get more serious and would possibly think of waterboarding or other methods of torture that could make them confess but at the same time, wont extremely physiclly harm them because that could cause problems and the discontent of the countries of those prisoners and cause them to rally. I think the short repercussions would just be the physical pain of those prisoners.
I am willing to do anything to get that information, because peoples lives are on the line.
