“Ukraine: A War Crime – a book by photographers documenting the war’s first year“

I looked this up because Portuguese news was covering a gallery in Lisbon that showcases the photos in this book. I don’t think I’ve ever seen something like this done before for any war except maybe the very old ones.

    Soldiers from special commando unit 112 with a Russian spy. The man, allegedly in possession of a fake Israeli passport, was living in Irpin months before the Russian invasion. Under interrogation he confessed his name is Alexei, from St Petersburg, married with a child and working for the Wagner Group

    That one’s bizarre, it’s a civilian sitting in the mud barefoot with some sort of bag over his head and a rope round his neck.

    So he lived in the area long before the invasion, but then was captured with an Israeli passport and under “interrogation” confessed to being a Russian spy?

    And given the number of Nazis in the army, nothing about this seems off to the “Guardian-reading wokerati”?

      Given the type of “interrogation” that probably went on is likely akin to US “enhanced interrogation”, I wouldn’t be surprised if reports confirmed that Pixies from Pluto were confirmed to be the instigators of the war because they were angry Pluto wasn’t a planet anymore.

        I don’t think SBU or banderite purge squads are even this subtle.

      No. Repeat after me: putler, orcs, evil must be stopped, glory to liberalism
