Ukraine: Russian troops use underage girl as human shield after murdering her parents in front-line village, military says
a year ago by Hotznplotzn to c/europe
Russian forces took an underage girl hostage to use her as a human shield after murdering her parents in a front-line village in eastern Ukraine, the Ukrainian 3rd Army Corps reported on Sept. 24.
The civilians were killed in the area of responsibility of the 3rd Army Corps, in the village of Shandryholove in Donetsk Oblast.
Ukrainian authorities have documented a number of cases of Russian troops murdering civilians in front-line areas since the outbreak of the full-scale war in 2022, part of a wider pattern of abuse and repression.
"Russia is using (the captured girl) as a human shield for its unit advancing in the Lyman sector," the military unit said.
[...]
The Nazis did that too during the Warsaw Uprising
Cowards using a kid as a shield
Who do they think they are? US ICE agents?
my thoughts after the kidnap girl and use her to lure her father out.
No wonder the Nazis in the US think Russia is okay
I guess that's another war crime in the pile, to be forgotten about.
This sounds like the kind of hyperbolic reporting you hear in war about the opposing side. I really hope this isn’t true.
I agree, it has massive So glad we're the good guys, let's nuke these savages already!-energy.
I'm not defending Putin's war here, but calling out war propaganda.
Exactly, this strikes me as an example of “The Iraqi guard were breaking into neonatal intensive care units and killing the babies” kind of thing.
WOW, what a piece dripping with fearmongering russo-phobia
kyivindepdent.com
oh that makes sense, pure Nazi propaganda from the Nazi regime of Ukraine....
Look at his instance if you have any doubts left. I don't know why we still federate with that pile of shit
You can always migrate to a new one. I wouldn't want to be associated with such people
You can leave if you want to just be anti-communist...
We should all defederate from the triad
Yeah just run away from us evil evil communists and stick with your western programming ha ha!
LMBOOO Ya the marxist instance, how horrible, maybe you should actually open your mind instead of just being an anti-communist liberal
I'm not anti communist, I'm anti bootlicking tankie fanboy
If this is how .ml users typically act I understand the vitriol against y'all now.
“Marxist” instance full of tankie hypocrites
See's an opinion against western propaganda narratives
Liberals: "OmG TAnKIEeeeee"
Yeah, no.
Not a liberal
Also I don't do that for any normal valid opinion on anything. That I reserve for disingenuous idiots like you who support an aggressive dictator who is currently actively committing genocide. You ignore basic facts like Putin being an invader? You're a tankie
Also your account is new and you're praising Putin so it's fair enough to assume that you're one of those paid shills or maybe even an AI bot so all we can do now is call you paid AI shill
Just like on Reddit, any view that even slightly goes against your "liberal" (read: Empire propaganda programming) world view and you immediately reach for the "bot" or "shill" label. You're ignoring the most basic fact at all, western media is lying to you. Just like they lied about the Ughyur "genocide" despite the preponderance of evidence you liberals are shown. Ukraine is a Nazi dictatorship and their media is pure propaganda
Liberals go back to Reddit
The propaganda machine goes brr on both sides. However, the side you're advocating for decided that the only way to resolve a diplomatic issue is to invade a country and murder its citizens. No matter how you spin it, it is still the case that the powerful are throwing away human lives for their own benefit. Isn't .ml supposed to side with the people usually, and not the rich people controlling the world currently?
Lol, do you think tankies are morally consistant?
They literally have video and audio of this happening.
No no, you don't understand. Those brave Russians where just trying to protect that poor girl from the evil Ukrainians by... Using her as a shield... Yeah
The Russian soldiers doing it are clearly Russo-phobes
They have a video of people in combat, nothing in the video in any way proves the story they're selling about it, you've chosen to believe that story because you want to
Plenty of this too, but libs don't seem to want to bring this up hmmmmmmmmmmmm
This totally justifies Russian soldiers using a girl as a human shield after shooting her parents. Thank you for opening my eyes to this moral truth.
Also, this image mostly cites liberal media sources.
Do you know the sources for those images?
I guess it's not that hard to write with Putin's cock in your mouth.
Being homophobic won't make this story any less bullshit
And/or misogyny? Not better dumbass.
It is rational because it's the direct result of western fearmongering
Please go away. You are not welcome here.
There are no nazis in the Ukrainian ruling party. There are fascists in Putin’s camp though
Oh ya just keep pretending this doesn't exist
That’s a meme and not a valid source for information.
Do you have actual sources proving the ruling party of Ukraine has nazis in its leadership? I can easily prove there are racist fascists ruling Russia right now.
Regardless there is no moral high ground to Russian imperialist invaders who themselves are no better than Nazis
look man, yes - there are fascists in ukraine (but not too many and they can't dictate shit) yes - ukraine has a weird relationship with it's past yes - nato basically expanded to russia's borders yes - a newspaper called kyivindependent will try to paint russians as monsters (despite the fact this particular case factually happened)
BUT this war doesn't benefit the workers of either countries. this war caused the death of about 1 million people, be it young conscripted russian men, ukrainian men, civilians on either side etc. it doesn't matter. it's 1000000 lives lost and for what? no sane person will say the "denazification" is a valid reason, same as the "fight for the native russians stuck in ukraine" and less so the "fight against the fascist regime" the invader is a country led by slimy opportunists who privatized everything after the fall of the soviet union. and the invaded are basically the same but cozied up with "le evil west"
i'd be willing to understand your viewpoint if you sent me theory that supports your view. because i haven't yet read any that compelled me to dehumanize a group of people or a country and support either side of a war with clear economic interest.
