Prayers to all the lost lives💙😭 They all were victims of 1 evil person decision, PUTIN .!!
May hell drag his soul down and never let him loose again.

I just wanna say this doesn’t look right. The Russian soldiers took time out to dig individual graves for 400+, some of which had been tortured, with nooses still on their necks. So why would Graves have crosses on the burial sights??- Unbelievable. Not in war. The burials show some sign of respect.

Very sad! I'm sorry for your loss! My condolences and prayers for y'all! RIP

When will the world learn... This is what Russia does. Everytime they have been in conflict. Literally every time

[alisha]

Who's making these graves? The Russians or Ukrainians?

[thetarasbulba]

I hope everyone remembers this after the current Russian regime gets ousted. They can never be allowed to do this again to anyone.

Ukraine should let those folks rest in peace.

[plasticide]

mass graves marked with crosses as a sign of respect yes

They’re digging up a graveyard extension. People buried in coffins in marked graves. With photos of family

I am so sorry this is happening to your people people who I share bloodlines with so I grew up in America.
God will repay good for good and evil for evil.

If this is a War Crimes site surely the thing to do is to wait for International Agencies to come and do an investigation and assessment - so why is Ukraine digging this up straight away ?

They killed a 5 year old almost a month before their birthday.

That’s not a mass grave! Mass graves are for when the bodies aren’t respected. All thrown together. Those are all marked graves of people who they cared about.

[thomascolbert]

It should be the job of Russian POW's to dig them up.

[kyivanrus]

There is absolutely no context given here. How do we know these are not graves of russians? Why would the russian 'beasts' nice and orderly bury so many ukrainians? There is no way to tell what is going on here without proper context

[jazzkauk]

[nikolinca]
