The Russians shot 410 civilians just in Bucha alone. When they are not shooting and raping civilians, they use unguided munitions against cities.

add torturing and raping as standard operating procedure to that list.

Here’s a source that contradicts your narrative: https://www.bbc.com/news/60981238

Satellite images from before the Russian army left the town of Bucha.

I've seen the satellite images. I've seen the pictures. And I've seen the video with the disturbing audio. I wish Twitter didn't delete so many things. So I've seen two sets of contradictory evidence. So I guess, pick and choose your narrative? It's not that simple. I'm inclined to believe the videos taken by the Ukrainain soldiers and the pictures rather than the satellite imagery. After Assange, I have nearly zero trust in images produced by a state controlled entity.

I'm inclined to believe the videos taken by Ukrainian civilians and what I've seen has shocked me immensely

Strange you can make the claims while "on mobile" but can't link to sources because you're also "on mobile".

You're insane.

Hello from Kyiv.

I’m sure there plenty of war crimes from both sides. War brutalises all participants.

There’s a video on Reddit of Ukrainian soldiers shooting Russian POWs in legs, with AKs.

The soldiers were from a local guard, and the POWs from an artillery unit that had been bombarding their small city.

I think it’s on /r/combatfootage, or /r/UkraineWarVideoReport, if you want to look it up.

That video has been debunked as fake btw, it's riddled with inconsistencies in blood presence, patterns, uniforms.

Furthermore, if Ukrainians are committing war crimes against the invading Russian army which basically has war crimes as their tactics and strategy, they're mostly morally justified. Hopefully they don't.

War crimes are war crimes, nothing justifies those ever. Stuff has to be really nasty to still be considered a crime during times actively killing other people is completely legal and the main activity, aka war.

Yikes. Good thing you don't speak for anyone but yourself. Justifying war crimes from any side is so far beyond the pale, it's mind-blowing.

You should read again, I'm not justifying anything and i said "hopefully they don't", but if you don't see why a person seeing the carnage uttered by the invading barbarous Russian army might want to enact revenge including through illegal means like shooting POWs ( the guys who just went around looting, raping and murdering civilians) I don't know what to tell you.

For a precedent, the Soviet army treated German POWs and worse, civilians, atrociously. But they had just suffered through a bitter war of destruction where they themselves were treated similarly.

It's up to the commanders to keep things clean and not let the anger spillover. Of course the Soviets didn't care, and on the contrary encouraged atrocities. So far the Ukrainians seem to be taking the high road, and all the better for everyone.

I saw the discussion around it’s legitimacy when it was released, but didn’t see anything conclusive at the time. I’ll look again.
