Russia commits war crimes not seen ‘even during the Nazi occupation 80 years ago’ and this is just the ‘tip of the iceberg’

“What we’re talking about here appears to be the direct killing and targeting of civilians in Bucha,” she said.

“This is extremely disturbing, and does really strongly suggest that they were directly targeted as individuals, and here, what we must stress is that under international humanitarian law, the deliberate killing of civilians is a war crime.

“All the signs are that the victims were directly targeted and directly killed.

“You could argue there was a military context, for example, to a building being hit; it’s hard to see what was the military context of an individual lying in the street with a bullet to the head or having their bodies burned.”

Russian soldiers have been accused of raping a 3-year-old girl in Ukraine and then throwing her lifeless body on top of her dead 17-year-old sister with other corpses.

The Ukrainian ambassador to Estonia Mariana Betsa said in a horrific tweet that shocking images have emerged of dead girls, many civilians executed and there are serious calls for Vladimir Putin and his Generals to be arrested for war crimes.

In another tweet by Ukrainian MP Lesia Vasylenko she wrote that 10-year-old girls have been found dead “with vaginal and rectal tears” and dead women’s corpses have “swastika shaped burns.”

Vasylenko tweet is further evidence of the brutality that Russian soldiers have and are committing war crimes never seen before.

She also slammed the “United Nations and NATO” for not doing enough “because the West chose to watch” and they have chosen to “ignore” the Ukraine for help after “children were found with their hands tied and shot dead.”
