The Kremlin has accused Ukrainian soldiers of executing more than 10 Russian prisoners of war following the circulation of a video on social media purporting to be from the frontline.
The footage appears to show a group of Russian soldiers emerging from an outbuilding in the grounds of a house with their hands above their heads before they are told to lie facedown.
One of the men wearing all black, however, seems to turn his gun on what appears to be a Ukrainian unit of soldiers wearing yellow armbands as he emerges from the half-destroyed outhouse.
The footage, seemingly taken by a Ukrainian soldier, suggests that all the Russians, including those in a prone position, were killed in the violence that followed. There are at least 12 bodies.
Just video footage. No Ukrainian government to say it so it didn’t happen! As pathetic as questioning whether Russians executed the Ukrainian POW’s. When there is a video of it happening there’s no point in screaming source source.
Once again: many war crimes. Undeniable. Genocide? Likely not.
Israel is primarily slaughtering civilians. Women and children make up most of their casualties. All hospitals and infrastructure is destroyed
Russia is committing many war crimes but they are nowhere near the level of Israel; trying to wipe out the population.
A state or group and its inhabitants are not the same.
If someone says “Death to Russia”, “death to Israel” or “death to ISIS” this does not mean wishing death upon everyone who lives under their rule. It means trying to get rid of the group ruling them.
Russia says Ukrainians do not exist as a separate people and tries to annex their land: war crime.
Israel says Palestinians do not exist (not the state, the people) and that they want kill them all, expell them from their land and put them in a concentration camp: genocide.
This is not a “technicality”. This is the crux of what genocide means. It is not a word to be thrown around lightly.
Israel is the cause of this. Their target is completely correct.
“My argument has been debunked but here is a website which states its mission is to defend Israel which says I am right”
I am proud of you for opening google so here is the real story: Hamas dug up a few old pipes from abandoned Israeli settlements and fired them back at Israel. Not functional water pipes.
There is a nice documentary about it. About how Hamas uses Israeli weapons back at Israel. Mainly unexploded Israeli bombs to make rockets. Go watch it sometimes. Very neat.
Fun fact; Israel is literally worse than ISIS
