The ruling on a person in ihram who is compelled to hunt and kills an animal to satisfy his hunger

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : Now, if he is compelled to hunt, meaning he is hungry and would die if he did not eat, is it permissible for him to kill it? Does it become lawful in this situation, or is it carrion from which only what satisfies his hunger is permissible?

Answer : Yes, the apparent ruling is the first option. But does he have to pay the expiation? Yes, he has to pay the expiation, because he killed it for his own benefit.
