Is one who was killed in battle treated as a martyr if he is brought to the washing place?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The second question, Shaykh: I work in the washing place for the dead in al-Had, Riyadh. The martyrs from the southern border are brought from the south to Riyadh. Should I treat them as martyrs, meaning I do not wash them, do not shroud them, and do not pray over them?

Answer:
If they are brought to you in the washing place, perform on them what you perform on the rest of the dead, because they are now under your protection. Yes.
