This is not the first instance where the military of the aggressor state violate the customs and rules of warfare.
Earlier, there were reports that Russian troops shot Ukrainian soldiers of the Armed Forces in the Huliaipole direction, attacking them from behind.
Recall that at the end of November, brutal footage appeared online showing how Russian army soldiers shoot five Ukrainian military personnel.
This incident further emphasizes the brutality of the conflict and the absence of basic norms of humanity on the part of the Russian troops. War crimes continue to provoke outrage and condemnation in Ukraine and beyond, prompting the international community to take more active actions in defense of human rights and military personnel during conflicts.
