They have intentionally bombed hospitals and shelters with civilians. The most prominent case being the theater in Mariupol that had "Children" written next to it so that it would be visible from the air.
Russia is pretty clearly committing war crimes and directly targeting civilians, there is a lot of evidence for that.
- milansm 5y agoI’m from Serbia, and know for sure that during the NATO war against Serbia in ‘99 our military was residing in (some) schools. It makes sense if you think about it. If they were better at information warfare, they would have written “children” on some of the buildings.

- jhgb 5y agoThey've even been admitting since the beginning that they were ordered to kill civilians: https://old.reddit.com/r/RussianWarSecrets/comments/t1yd83/russian_soldier_admits_that_russia_ordered_to/ https://old.reddit.com/r/RussianWarSecrets/comments/t1yd83/r... To say that "Russia has no interest in massacring and torturing civilians" is a barefaced lie considering the numerous soldiers' testimonies to the opposite.
- legalcorrection 5y agoSo, one, it's actually a violation of the Geneva Convention to be using captured soldiers in propaganda videos (regardless of whether what they're saying is true). Nonetheless, the Ukrainians have been doing this a lot. Two, how do you know the guy is actually a Russian soldier, how do you know he's telling the truth, how do you know he's free to tell the truth? You should be a little more skeptical of random videos posted online during a war. Both sides have been caught putting out blatantly fake propaganda.
