This community is about an investigation of a violation of international law during or after the Russian invasion of Ukraine that may be war crimes.
During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian authorities and armed forces committed multiple war crimes in the form of deliberate attacks against civilian targets, massacres of civilians, torture and rape of women and children, and indiscriminate attacks in densely populated areas.
The Russian military exposed the civilian population to unnecessary and disproportionate harm by using cluster munitions and by firing other explosive weapons with wide-area effects such as bombs, missiles, heavy artillery shells, and multiple launch rockets. The result of the Russian forces’ attacks has been damage and destruction to civilian buildings including houses, hospitals, schools, kindergartens, nuclear power plants, historic buildings, and churches.
