I am not downplaying Ukrainian losses, I am pointing out to how biased is BBC. Also, read carefully, BBC mentioned Russians twice, (Russian artist, and Putin critic) even though that person also criticized Ukrainian politicians. Why single out Russia, especially when it's not proven yet who killed him. In case of Gaza though, it is 100% clear who shots kids deliberately

Both are bad. You seem to imply that BBC inflates Putin evilness, or that it tune down Netanyahu evilness, and IMO they are both represented. In fact, I have the impression that you are the one trying to downplay Putin, for example saying "Ukraine loses" instead of "Russian kidnapp" or "Russian warcrimes".

  > You seem to imply that BBC inflates Putin evilness No, I am implying both, that BBC inflates Russian crimes, while downplaying Israeli crimes. in this case, in the title they connected the person who was shot, twice to Russians, one using his nationality, other is by using Putin's name, to deliberately steer the focus to Russian crimes, even though it is not yet proven Russians did it, maybe indeed Russians did it, who knows, what if they did not? On one side BBC is inflating what's not proven yet (again, they didn't say artist who critiqued politicians including Ukrainians), but downplaying what's proven: Israelis sniping kids

  >Netenyahu evilness Israel was an apartheid state before Netenyahu became its PM. The BBC wasn't quite as euphemistic about their settler colonial project until the 90s though.

I'm not sure your motivations but trying to muddy the waters with nonsequiturs about Israel and Ukraine seems reads like propaganda.
