Details of the execution of 9 people in a private house in occupied Volnovakha have emerged. Russian Telegram channels published some footage taken at the scene of the family's murder: adults and small children were killed while sleeping in their beds.
The youngest of those killed was 4 years old, the oldest was 53.
According to preliminary information, the day before the head of the family had a scandal with servicemen, allegedly "Chechens", refusing to give them his house. And after a while, Kadyrovites - servicemen of the Russian army - allegedly came to the house on motorcycles. Two or three well-equipped military men were equipped with night vision devices and automatic rifles with silencers. Relatives of the family noted that the family's valuables remained in place - nothing was taken.
According to neighbors, after the brutal massacre, senior officers came to the place and "ordered everyone to keep quiet".
@TateTheTalisman Hahaha, Tristan.
a grown beard and a large physique does not mean strong and tough. Here in Ukraine they crashed, they are nobody, they are not Chechens, they are Kadyrovites. Real Chechens defended their freedom.
Russians just now deliberately hit a cafe and killed 48 civilians, wounding other 6 people in the village of Groza, Kupyansky District, Kharkiv Oblast.
There is a 6-year-old boy amongst those killed. The number of victims is still counting.
Russia has started trials against some of the Ukrainian POWs from Azovstal.
Many of them are likely to be sentenced to life in prison for defending their motherland.
Others might die of starvation before a verdict is delivered.
He is not a prisoner of a Nazi concentration camp.
This is a show trial of tortured captive defenders of Mariupol taking place in russia right now.
What will it take for “Never Again” to truly mean Never?
At least 16 people have been killed by Russian shelling in Kostyantynivka, Donetsk region. Russian terrorists have attacked a regular market, shops, and a pharmacy, killing innocent people. The number of casualties could rise further.
Anyone in the world who is still dealing with anything Russian simply ignores this reality. Heinous evil. Brazen wickedness. Utter inhumanity.
My condolences to everyone who has lost a loved one. The Russian evil must be defeated as soon as possible.
Today Russia launched a rocket and murdered 20 civilian people for nothing in Konstantynivka, Donetsk region of Ukraine.
There are also many wounded and the amount of victims is still rising.
Russia has to pay for its terrorism. The world should not forget that a full-scale war in Ukraine is still going and russia is the aggressor, who brutally kills Ukrainians in everyday attacks.
The criminal actions of russia on following points:
The violation of provision of Article 3. 35 of Chapter I, Part III of the Additional Protocol to the Geneva Conventions of August 12, 1949, Concerning the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts Regarding the Prohibition of Methods or Means of Conduct of Military Actions Which Are Intended to Cause or Can Be Expected to Cause Widespread, Long-Term, and Serious Damage natural environment.
Such barbaric actions of the Russian Federation violate the basic principles and ideas that the civilized world developed for decades and enshrined in a number of international agreements, for example, in such as the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, Mainly as a Habitat for Waterfowl and the Convention on protection of wild flora and fauna and natural habitats in Europe. Such actions of the enemy once again demonstrate to the world community the absolute leveling of the Russian Federation against international norms, standards and rules.
Such criminal actions of the Russian military definitely and completely fall under the criminal law qualification under Art. 8 (2) (b) (iv) of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
The consequences are:
- The impossibility of taking water necessary for cooling the Zaporizhzhya NPP, which outcomes as a threat to the nuclear safety of the world;
- A mass death of aquatic organisms (fish, molluscs, crustaceans, microorganisms, aquatic vegetation) with further disturbance of their habitat, including birds and other amphibians and animals;
- Significant risks for rodent populations, in particular endemic species and those listed in the Red Book of Ukraine;
- Disturbance of the habitats of plant complexes;
- Negative impact on water areas, coastal areas and the land part of three Ukrainian national nature parks - "Nizhnyodniprovskyi", "Kamyanska Sichi", "Biloberezhya Svyatoslav", Black Sea Biosphere Reserve (this territory also has the status of a UNESCO biosphere reserve), Regional landscape park "Kinburnska Kosa" and numerous objects of the nature reserve fund with smaller areas. All these territories also have the status of Wetlands of international importance, protected in accordance with the Ramsar Convention, and are also territories of the Emerald Network, protected in accordance with the Berne Convention;
- The pollution of the waters of the Dnipro and the Black Sea - primary pollution due to the ingress of fuel and lubricant materials into the waters, washing away of garbage, agrochemicals, other dangerous materials, flooding and failure of sewage treatment systems, sewage, and so-called "secondary pollution"
- A leaching, transfer of mines and other explosive substances, increase in mine danger;
These are only few major aftermath to come.
❗️The undermining of the Kakhovska HPP dam is not only one of the biggest ecological and humanitarian disasters in the east of Europe that led to the flooding of vast territories and many settlements, but is in fact the biggest crime against food security in the world.
The Kakhov reservoir was the heart of one of the largest irrigation systems in Europe. It was the southern regions of Ukraine that supplied the countries of the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Europe with wheat, corn, sunflower and sunflower oil, soybeans and soybean meal.
We call on everyone who cares about the fate of our planet and the environment, who declares their status as environmentalists and defines nature protection activities as their goals — to take all possible measures in order to record these violations, bring the culprits to justice, and make it impossible to commit such barbarism in the future.

The world and our planet will face catastrophic consequences if you choose inaction!
Russia blew up Kakhovska HPP that is on the Dnipro River. This is an act of terrorism and a global threat, the consequences of these actions could be colossal and unpredictable.
An absolutely horrifying and inhumane video of a Russian war crime has been posted on some social platforms. We won’t be sharing it and we kindly ask you to not share the video or links to it publicly to protect those who can potentially get traumatized.
Russians filmed a terrible video of brutal beheading of a captured Ukrainian soldier. This is yet another monstrous crime of russian army and a violation of all conventions and moral principles of humanity.
You have to realize that such thing should never happen in 21st century, this is pure terrorism, a literal torture to death, an execution of a helpless human, that screams in agonizing pain for help and begs not to kill him. Everyone should understand this and take measures.
