Why a Russian war in Ukraine would be particularly deadly for civilians airwars.org/news-and-inves…

Gravely concerned for the safety of communities #Ukraine. Our message to the parties to the conflict is clear: uphold IHL, protect civilians and essential services. ICRC teams are responding to urgent humanitarian needs and they must be able to continue their life-saving work.

Anti-war protests have broken out in multiple countries around the world in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. People have held demonstrations in the UK, France, Japan, Germany, Turkey, Italy, Lebanon and elsewhere. trib.al/n1R2TD6

I am deeply shocked by the images of civilians killed in Bucha, Ukraine. It is essential that an independent investigation leads to effective accountability.

Intentionally killing civilians is a war crime.
