War is ugly. That's probably happening on both sides. You try not killing a guy that's was shooting to kill you.
POWs typically aren't shooting to kill you
Then don't bomb Russian civilians and they won't fight back
Bombing Russian civilians bad, bombing Ukrainian civilians good, right?
Since Ukraine started the fight by attacking ethnic Russians and murdering civilians in the Donbass then don't be surprised when Russia defends it's people
Victims of “Donbas genocide” were paid actors, Prigozhin’s fired trolls reveal

Girl killed in Ukraine 'never existed' - BBC News
Ridiculous lie on Russian TV: a child was crucified in Ukraine

It sure didn't take long for the Russian troll bots to show up on Lemmy
They were already here.
Killing POWs is not defending its people.
If by "defends its people" you mean "uses it as an excuse to invade the entire country of Ukraine" then... sure.
You know the ground war would stop immediately if Russia got out of Ukraine, yes?
