Ukrainian city of Bucha, a suburb of Kyiv, is known for the trail of death and destruction left behind after Russian military occupation. Human rights experts say its a possible war crime scene, with evidence of summary executions, enforced disappearances, and torture.

*Russia🇷🇺 still occupied oblast Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Kherson, Crimea.*
Russia must end occupation & peace.!

what a horrible situation. rip to the victims and best wishes to the husband/father. how do they plan to bring the perpetrators to justice? did they capture the buriat fighters as pows? IF ukraine wins/survives the war, do they think that they can reach deep into russia and find the killers? seems almost impossible. this war should have never started. i cannot understand how in our age of information & communication diplomacy can fail.

On May 12, 1996, then-ambassador Madeline Albright defended UN sanctions against Iraq on a 60 Minutes segment, in which Lesley Stahl asked her, "We have heard that half a million children have died [in Iraq, due to the illegal, immoral, and unjust crippling sanctions, imposed upon them by the US and its Unholy alliances]. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima [in Japan, in the two cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, where the first Ever used Nuclear bomb tested, the two Atomic bombs were dropped by the US]. And, you know, is the price worth it?"

“I think that is a very hard choice, ” Madeline Albright answered, “but the price, we think, the price is worth it.”

Bucha is a big 'charade' . We all know that ! ' The Collective West' is expert at staging stuff like that. No the first time either .

Start the Bucha war crime tribunals on the same day as the Iraq and Afghanistan War Crimes tribunal

This will be a lengthy and costly process.
