Absolutely appalling!Maria Dubovikova (@politblogme) Tweeted:
It might give the impression that the Russian military were captured after having been wounded. But that's not the case. At the end of the video, we can see Ukrainian soldiers shooting all the newly arrived prisoners through their legs.

This is absolutely unnecessary.Sooner or later the russian will retaliated back by killing ukranian pow
There is no need to justify it. It's not justifiable at all. It's simply the reality of war when you target civilians and shell communities. Eventually, you're not going to be treated well in return.Absolutely appalling!
Although Russians reportedly have done worse in Syria and Libya, this can not be justified! Disgusting!
Wars are full of crime. Horrible things are done in war. It's the reaction of desperation.I'm more in line with @wolveray It's a war crime and nothing else.
But again it's tit for tat. Russia does war crime time to time without repercussions. Now it's intended victim could actually done the same.
This would be the perfect time for all countries that have ongoing issues with Russia to start to kick the hornet's nest. Make the Russian public squirm with their sons fighting a multi-front war.
Oh anyway, does anyone noticed the significant decrease in sortie from the VKS in Syria ? Dardanelles closing must have an impact on Russian logistics in Khmeimim
Nobody has an ounce of sympathy for the Wagner Group. If the Ukrainian Special Forces find them and want to hang them from trees, slit them from belly button to asshole, and let their insides pour out of them, not a single person in the civilized world will blink, nor take any pity on them. They are the worst of the worst.If its wagner mercs they deserve worse to be honest.
They tortured a Syrian man with a sledge hammer and mass graves of libya done by wagners and the al kani militias.
I don't get caught up in name calling, narrative creation or linguistic gymnastics.
There are winners and losers in this world. Period. It's in the West's long term best interest to bleed Russia out and ruin them economically. The result will be them leaving this invasion as a loser, regardless of what land Ukraine, inevitably, surrenders.
The win for the West will be forcing Russia into pariah status, for the Chinese and the Indians to bend them over and break them economically. Such is the way of global politics and conflict.
The Bear is being hunted.

It's awful, but war is awful. Those Russian soldiers will go back home to their families via prisoner exchange and they will take with them a souvenir from their invasion of their neighbour. They should count themselves among the lucky, who will go home to their families alive. Many of their friends will go home in clear plastic bags (if the Russians ever collect their dead) or as ashes in a box.
Interview with Ukrainian military analyst Andrey Illarionov. Extremely dissatisfied with the actions of the Biden administration. He says the US has provided $800 million worth of comparable military aid, comparable to that of a poor village, including stingers and javelins, enough for 1.5 days of combat throughout the year. Because it spends 500 javelins and 500 stingers daily. At the time, Luxembourg provided $250 million in military aid and the Czech Republic $500 million. During the war in Afghanistan, the Americans provided 4 billion dollars a year to help the government under their control, whose opponents walked in slippers.
He says that the NATO military approached me and asked for a CIA officer to fly to Moscow in November to conclude a pact similar to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact in 1939, when Poland was divided by the USSR and Germany.
Under Trump, Moscow has never concentrated troops on the border with Ukraine.
Putin pretends to threaten with a nuclear baton, and Biden pretends to be scared. I don't like this bad game at all. Do you remember that Biden recalled American instructors before the war? Do you remember that you sent the US embassy to the city of Lvov? That is, Biden crossed out the Zelensky government from his plans. He talks a lot about help, but there is no real help from him and never will be.
The fact that Putin is bluffing with a nuclear baton is clear. On August 11, 2008, it was enough for American warships to enter the Black Sea for the advance in Georgia to stop.
In 2017, it was enough for a Russian bomber to enter Turkey for 40 seconds to be shot down. After that, there were no attempts to enter Turkish airspace. Moscow did not drop an atomic bomb on Istanbul.
In 2018, when the Wagner PMCs entered the oil fields in Syria and were bombed by the Americans, Moscow did not throw atomic bombs.
Now, when 2 countries (Russia, Belarus) carried out aggression against our country, one state, Turkey, helped us without our request. They blocked the Dardanelles, otherwise the Russian warships that entered would begin to bomb Ukrainian cities. For us, this assistance is much more important than the provision of fighters. And why did Moscow hit Turkey with atomic weapons? Russian propagandists on the TV channel, lackeys of Putin, Skabeev, Kedmi, Solovyov, began to threaten Turkey?
Azerbaijan, which is not part of NATO, sent its troops to Karabakh and demanded the withdrawal of the peacekeeping contingent from Karabakh, then Russia began to threaten Baku with nuclear weapons?
