Russische Drohnenangriffe in der Ukraine seien Kriegsverbrechen, sagt die UN-Kommission

A strong statement /s Why make it at the end of the fourth year of the war?

I’m sure **this** is the strongly worded statement that will *finally* make Putin agree to withdraw his forces and surrender himself/his generals to international courts.

It’s not just the drone strikes. The broader campaign Russia is waging against Ukraine has been incredibly well documented as genocidal, both in intent and in practice. Russian state TV and Telegram channels have literally bragged about what they call a “human safari,” showing videos of soldiers hunting civilians and treating it like sport.

Then there are the filtration camps. Thousands of Ukrainians, including kids, have been detained, interrogated, and deported through these systems. The UN and multiple investigations have confirmed this. People are separated from their families, phones are checked for any sign of loyalty to Ukraine, and those who resist often just vanish.

And the rhetoric from Russian officials and TV personalities couldn’t be clearer. They say, over and over again, that Ukraine has no right to exist. They call for wiping out Ukrainian identity, language, and culture. They say Ukrainians are “brainwashed Russians.” They are extremely transparent about their objectives. They scream it from the mountain tops, on TV constantly. They want to eliminate the Ukrainian state and the Ukrainian people as such.

This isn’t random violence. It’s a deliberate campaign of extermination that they’re proud of.

Does anyone ever actually face the consequences of war crimes anymore, or do we just point them out and that’s it?
