Russian sources say:

That over 10,000 Ukrainian soldiers have surrendered rather than be slaughtered. Russia set up a special radio frequency that the Ukrainians can use to get directions on how to cross the mine fields to safety, food and medical attention. All things in short supply on the Ukrainian side of the line.

@Spotpot You mean like Konstantinivka where Zelensky emphatically confirmed Russia fired into the supermarket killing 16 civilians only for investigations to find the missile actually came from the Ukrainian side?

Or how about the missile that killed two in Poland which again, Zelensky adamantly insisted was a Russian missile only for the Poles themselves to find it was a Ukrainian missile?

Perhaps like the Donbas which is now repeatedly shelled by Ukraine with western weapons?

The women that Patrick Lancaster interviewed that had been visibly violated by the Ukrainians? Or The Bucha massacre which needed live "corpses" to demonstrate how brutal the Russians were, that Russia itself doesn't deny but demands names and surnames of the victims which are not forthcoming?

Repeating accusations does not mean they are confirmed. I have no doubt however that harrowing shit happens in war.

@SW-User I oppose war. That doesn't make me a pacifist. Pacifism is a suicide pact. I oppose the aggressor in any war. In this case it is the US, Ukraine and NATO that are the aggressors and had the US in particular pushed Ukraine to use its Nazis to kill Ukrainians beginning in 2014....... The bad guys in this conflict is the west and Ukraine not Russia. Russia did everything it could to prevent this war but Ukraine and its American masters wanted a war. They got a war and they are losing htat war and sadly hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian lives are being lost. Such a stupid war. Shame on the US and NATO for starting it.
