      Elaborate. You too @grue@lemmy.world Have there been mass deaths of civilians in Russian-occupied areas? Are they segregating the population or practicing apartheid based on ethnicity? Are they sterilizing Ukainians? Have marriages between Russians and Ukrainians been outlawed?

      What kind of extermination campaign are they running? I’m not seeing it, besides relocating children out of the war zone. I suppose that could be argued as ethnic cleansing, but it can also be justified as protecting children from war so this alone isn’t enough imo

        It’s not ethnic cleansing in your book, but who cares? It is according to the ICC, which is why there’s an arrest warrant for Putin for ethnic cleansing.

        In the past nights Russia fired thousands of rockets and drones at civilian targets. The only reason Ukraine doesn’t entirely look like Gaza (and some parts do) is because of the population density and the air defense systems.

        Are they segregating the population or practicing apartheid based on ethnicity?

        As an example, they are declaring the homes of war refugees abandoned, and are giving it to Russians, specifically excluding Ukrainians.
