The findings of the just-issued UN report on despicable Russian war crimes: rape of girls and women age 4-82; summary executions, including of boys; brutal torture to death; inhuman and degrading confinement; savage beatings for speaking Ukrainian. ohchr.org/sites/default/…
These violations of humanitarian (the four Geneva Conventions and two Additional Protocols) and human rights law also constitute war crimes (Rome Statute, Art. 8) and crimes against humanity (Rome Statute, Art. 7). This is a devastating indictment of the terrorist Russian state.
Summary: Russia has committed a clear pattern of widespread war crimes: wilful killings, torture, rape, confinement, forced deportation, indiscriminate attacks on civilians, destruction of civilian infrastructure, which are also crimes against humanity, forced deportations.
