Ehh the problem is most of Ukraine is open.
The russian people know full well the horrors of war, and the fact that they are willing to inflict those horrors on a nation that has done them no harm, they deserve no mercy what so ever and they deserve any and all atrocities that are being done and will be done after the war, if there are attacks on russian soil its all well earned and they dont deserve any sympathy, passiveness is permission in this case and the russian people are very passive towards this war.
True but Ukraine is a very flat/open country, a lot of it is like this
Russians would have a much harder time if it was mountainous
Why not set up artillery in an open field so everyone can see you
Singapore, what the hell?
Some real sh**holes.
Surprising how many abstained.
BBC at least is doing proper investigation.
Yesterday I forced myself and watched the longer video.
I still have doubts about this video. These soldiers could have been killed by the explosion from near vehicles, the first one burning is only 25 meters away. There were debris laying around. Also why their boots would be lying few meters from them in a random order?
In my opinion it is a real setting used to shot the fake video.
If these soldiers where ambushed and killed on the spot, so why would anyone bother to tie one of them hands behind. It doesn't make sense. But it makes sense, if you want to send a message that they were prisoners, not soldiers killed in a fight.
Also this still alive soldier has his head hidden in his jumper. If they were fake shots, so this kind of protection against blank bullets, would make sense. And also after 4 shots, no more blood appeared from his head (from under this jumper). Weird. So I have serious doubts about this video.
That's my 2 cents about this particular video.
The world should have reacted allready in 2008 when Putin invaded Georgia
Instead Merkel and EU decided to help finance the war criminal by buying oil and gas.
And the same thing is happening in China,and we sit and watch because rich people are making more money.
And Germanys economy is depending on both Russian oil and gas and production in China.
Talk about ticking bomb
Not a fan of the music but I like the Ukrainian made Stugna when there's a Russian chopper, tank, or fuel truck as it's customer.
Military expediency:
If you do that pretty soon you won't have any one surrendering to you... You want soldiers to surrender when their position is hopeless not fight to the death
If your own soldiers surrender you want quid pro quo
So embarrassing for our country. I'm ashamed of them.
He's one of the head honchos in the Putin regime. He's often seen on TV there and quoted in the media.
Russian spokesperson being interviewed on sky news now
Peskov is putins spokesperson.
We keep pointing this out. Virtually anyone who puts forward any angle from the Russian point of view is lending support to the criminal Putin regime (even if that is not their intention). The idea that you can have 'balance' or 'two points of view' when the regime is pursuing an aggressive war of annihilation and possible genocide against the Ukrainian people will just not wash.
I was talking about Russian soldiers. Didn't Moses kill yer man because he was the aggressor?
No real surprises on the against list:-
I doubt these female Ukrainian POWs who were exchanged for RUssian POWs, would agree with you:
"Last Friday the governments of Ukraine and Russia held a prisoner of war exchange, captured by both sides during the invasion of Ukraine. The swap was made possible by an agreement between the two delegations negotiating on behalf of Zelensky and Putin to end the war.
Among the 86 Ukrainian soldiers who returned to their country, there were 15 women." https://cvvnews.com/they-denounce-that-the-russian-army-shaves-the-heads-of-captured-ukrainian-soldiers/
Good news
It seems though that it is possible that this was a "mercy killing" and not a Putin style atrocity. Ukrainian speakers say the conversation on the video was that the unfortunate Russian soldier was already dying from injuries sustained in battle and the soldiers were debating whether to put him out of his misery.
You forget that there are lots of Georgians and Chechens who will want to exact revenge on Russians for what they have done in their countries/regions.
It is akin to how the worst ones in Vietnam to captured Vietcong / NVA were the South Koreans who just hated anyone communist related.
And as for Putin starting in South Osetia/Georgia it would be lunacy to spread the conflict when he is bogged down at the moment.
Russian casualties as estimated by Ukrainian authorities are currently 18,900. Given the ±500 a day rate, they might top 20,000 before the weekend is out.
Oh I forgot her back stabbing big Phil was so that she could get the gig.
And Leo the backstabber was trying to get revenge for Big Phil being big part of Kenny's showing him up alongside mutinous Richard.
Oh don't get me started on the EU elections and the crackpots.
DER SPIEGEL has learned that German intelligence intercepted radio traffic from the Russian military regarding the murder of civilians in Bucha. It appears that such atrocities were part of the plan."
"In another intercepted conversation, a man apparently said: First you interrogate soldiers, then you shoot them."
Perhaps the biased BBC could run that one.
.
It was the same in east Germany b4 the wall came down, half the population was spying on the other half.
Tbh I really couldn't give two **** about "the Russian narrative " . After what they have been doing in Ukraine ( and we haven't seen anything like the full extent yet) they deserve everything that comes their way.

Revolting.
Daly and Wallace will go down in infamy. They may as well enjoy their 15 mins of fame doing their Lord Haw Haw act, because their political careers are toast.
The Irish "far left" have thoroughly disgraced themselves over the last two months.
Didn't think we'd see the day when Irish avowed "anti-imperialsits" would become some of the loudest mouthpieces for a fascist invasion but here we are.
Paul Murphy, Mick Barry et al, we see you...
Easier said than done I’d imagine - 5 or 6 weeks of living in hell kindof has that affect on people- I can’t say I’d do much different if my family were murdered by the Russians
The BBC are running the story of Russian soldiers being killed in cold blood.
So it seems that these lads are most likely from Georgia, which I would imagine is probably enough fuel for Putin to start with the Georgian Nazi's angle if he desires pushing on that front too.
It's a shame that this is happening because this behaviour has absolutely no positive effect for the Ukranian resistance efforts and just feeds into the narrative the Russians would like to push. Those fighting on the side of Ukranians really need to be keeping themselves to as high a standard as possible, regardless of the horrors that the Russians have inflicted on civilians.
