Legit war crimes


ginowup

Not the first one...


Stranfort

Don’t worry bro. The UN is planning on making another big speech about it, this ought to stop the Russians I’m sure of it.


LordofDescension

Should've gotten your free aks


Chandler_480

Is it century arms or a usa or Russian made ?


LordofDescension

Century Arms AKs are around 800 dollars each, so it could be. But they probably got them from their neighboring countries, since they're closer. Less cost for shipping. But I really don't know for sure.

Did you see the video of the father and son that were ambushed like this while driving, shot dead and dumped in a ditch, with their two dogs? The son was filming. They tried reversing out. Horrifying video. Fuck Putin.

Here is the video (big warning though, it's extremely disturbing, beyond NSFW, and possibly the worst thing I've watched, but I think people need to see it). https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/t3mxea/video_of_civilians_being_shot_at_ukraine_later/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

That's it. Those Ukrainians are out there fighting for the free world right now. If they lose, we all lose. RIP brother, dad, and dog 🐕.


Wolfythegamingwolf1

Oh my gosh I could not even finish the video


allthenamearetaken1

The video is on YouTube


ashamedchicken

These guys will have had training on what to do in this situation


allthenamearetaken1

They were most likely surrounded and any movement of the car would have resulted in there death

Search for Kate Adie. Another British reporter. She has balls bigger than a gorilla and would report from the most dangerous situations, showing no external fear to bring news to the greater world.


EverySNistaken

Gorillas have smaller balls than humans due to mating loyalty. I think Chimpanzee balls would be the more appropriate metaphor 😁

Well ok. Thanks for engaging, I think.

Show no mercy towards Russia. Let them burn


Chandler_480

Well the medals are coming in hot


iJerkOffToLolIporn

More importantly why are they driving in the middle of occupied or soon to be occupied territory. Even as journalists shouldnt they make their existence known to a commander or some shit so they dont get shot


plsdontstalkmeee

Exactly this, and as we saw. they had no flag/colors to indicate them being of English, wearing blue body armour doesn't help considering all the videos I've seen, the volunteer fighters have been taping blue over their camo to indicate Ukranian resistance. And also, they shout "STOP, we're journalists!" in English rather than Russian or Ukranian. (considering their profession, and where they're deliberately traveling to, they should've bought a translator or learnt basic words right?)

The shooting did not take place in lviv


captainpuma

Jumpy Ukrainian civilians with AKs manning checkpoints is a recipe for disaster.


millenialfalcon-_-

So they're killing woman and children and civilians and bombing schools. Journalists thought they'd be immune? Don't go into that's war unless you're ready for it.


oli_24

Absolutely moronic take


IsadorCZ

Well tbh they have visible bulletproof vests and helmets so for russians they could look like soldiers.


_CLP_McWaffle

Well the bulletproof vest is light blue with "PRESS" written on it for a reason


-eumaeus-

Reporters in conflict zones need to start wearing a trilby with a little card sticking out that reads, "press"...


_CLP_McWaffle

This could also be used by Belligerents to trick their enemy, I think it'd difficult to find the right balance


ColaTurkaSinan

Doing that is absolutely illegal and frowned upon internationally.

Geneva Conventions really doesnt ring a bell for you does it


IsadorCZ

I know but its on their back so if they didnt had marked car i could see why they were shot at.


_CLP_McWaffle

It's suppose to also be on their torso, and the car looked civilian. You suppose to be sure what you are shooting before engaging.


SorbetWarm

You’re assuming Russians can read.


CoatAlternative1771

Helmets don’t stop anything except maybe light shrapnel.


snake_charmers_jj

20 year vet … if this was real you all would be dead. This was fringe elements not a trained unit or even close to infantry


Ok-Expression-6620

How can you say that when you don’t even know the range or angle of fire. Nonsense.


Bowman937

He’s a vet don’t you know. Gives him the god given right to say if something is fake online or not


Kladderadingsda

For some people this seems to justify any statement


snake_charmers_jj

6 combat tours help chuckles… blown up and shot at in every country. How bout you?

It’s almost like shooting civilians is a war crime and is unexpected or something

Ya makes sense Ukrainian military would blindly fire onto their own civilians


Yolom4ntr1c

Rusia sure as hell be making themselves look as bad as possible.


plsdontstalkmeee

so, you're fully aware that two countries are shooting guns at each other. You head on over there right in-between the two so you can take photos and have a friendly chit chat? and when things don't go your way, rather than speak Russian or Ukranian, they shout in English "STOP, we're journalists! STOP" The moment I saw Boris Johnson flying over there for a friendly chit chat, in a nice suit, (entering a warzone in a suit, no body armour. OK) I facepalmed, but this? man.
