During a MARSA procedure, separation is required between participating military aircraft and which type of traffic?

Explanation:
MARSA makes the military responsible for separation with traffic that isn’t part of the MARSA arrangement, but only for those flights that rely on IFR clearance. IFR flights require defined separation under ATC rules, so when military aircraft participate in MARSA they must maintain separation from nonparticipating IFR traffic to prevent conflicts. VFR traffic isn’t guaranteed the same ATC-separation protection in this setup, and separation with other military traffic is handled within the MARSA coordination. So the separation applies specifically to nonparticipating IFR aircraft.
