Intelligence officials have cited multiple instances in which Russian troops received direct orders to kill prisoners of war. According to HUR, these acts are not isolated incidents but part of a deliberate and systematic policy of the Russian leadership.

This pattern of war crimes has also been confirmed by the U.N. Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine. In a report released on March 19, the commission found a growing number of cases in which Russian forces deliberately killed or maimed Ukrainian soldiers who had surrendered or attempted to surrender.

Just a thought, how about we remember that you're talking about sacrificing Ukrainian lives. Fight for Ukraine to win, and quick.

In case I'm wasn't being clear, Ukraine must win, and quickly. For the sake of Ukraine, Europe, and indeed the world.
