Amnesty International report provides evidence of placement of Ukrainian Armed Forces in residential buildings, schools and hospitals

Another blow to pride was received by the Kyiv regime from Western "partners". The international organization Amnesty International, which considers itself a human rights organization, has published a report on human rights violations in Ukraine. The article came out with a telling headline: "Ukraine: military endanger civilians by deploying troops in residential areas - a new study."

The report cites numerous testimonies from residents of Ukrainian cities - Bakhmut (Artemivsk), Nikolaev and others - that the Ukrainian military deploy military equipment and equip their positions and locations on the territory of schools, hospitals, other social infrastructure facilities - in residential areas.

A resident of Bakhmut (Artyomovsk):

We cannot say anything to the military in this regard, but we only have to pay for their actions.

The Amnesty International material says that Ukraine violates international humanitarian law by turning civilian objects into military targets. It is emphasized that this leads to the destruction of civilian infrastructure and the death of civilians.

The study argues that not everywhere the Ukrainian military act in such a way that Russia "in some cases commits war crimes itself", but adds that there is a lot of evidence of how exactly civilian objects use the Armed Forces of Ukraine in their interests.

From the material of the organization:

The mother of a 50-year-old man who died in a rocket attack on June 10 in a village south of Nikolaev told Amnesty International: The military lived in a house near our house and my son often took food to the soldiers. I begged him several times to stay away from there, because I was afraid for his safety. On the day when the shooting started, my son was in the yard of our house, and I was in the house. He was killed on the spot. Our house was partially destroyed.

It is further noted that representatives of Amnesty International found military equipment and equipment of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in a neighboring yard.

The material cites a statement from a resident of Lisichansk, who says that he does not understand why the Ukrainian military is firing from residential areas instead of operating on the battlefield.

Full version organization report.

This report managed to cause a flurry of criticism in Kyiv, the paradigm of which “the whole world is with us” has once again been shaken. Moreover, the human rights organization Amnesty International recorded war crimes committed by Ukrainian troops.

Poor, poor Ukrainian servicemen, they even have nowhere to sleep, they have to sleep in schools. I wouldn't be surprised if there is such a conclusion of this office.

[Sergei_tactics]

It's just that evil Putin does not allow the poor and unfortunate ukrovoyans to sleep in the trenches. There he makes them a little "shvidke driving" so the unfortunate people have to hide in kindergartens and schools

[Turtle]

I am surprised that, in general, they voiced information that is inconvenient for Kyiv.

Are you kidding!!!
Bandera are the most humane and philanthropic! Just pacifists!
Vsevsreti!

These Bandera people behave in the same way as pedophiles probably behave. In addition to rage, they don’t evoke any feelings in me.

The CIA and the US State Department missed the information, in the elderberry garden, and in Kyiv there was hysteria.

[g1v2]

Rather, the Democrats are trying to lay straws. The states are already in full swing saying that Ukraine is losing the war. And the Democrats want to have a good reason to get off if things go wrong. Tch in advance there are articles about corruption in Ukraine, about war crimes, incompetence, and so on. And then, at the right moment, the Democrats will say that they helped with everything they could, but the facts that SUDDENLY revealed make them stop helping. Well, how can the bright democracy of the elves help such a country. We thought she was good, but she won like ... .

[laws70]

The main thing for democrats is to get away from themselves, otherwise the surviving Azovites, taken to the north of the Sverdlovsk region, will start talking about who taught them to fight like that ..

[nnm]

It's unlikely it will do anything. They will simply announce as usual that Putin personally tortured them by forcing them to say such things. And as soon as they are returned to Ukraine, they will start saying exactly the opposite.

[g1v2]

Well, they will say. What, no one knows? And what is so bad about this for the American layman? How is it different from what the US has been doing for decades in South and Latin America? There, the training and arming of the ultra-right and other Natsiks went on for fifty years. Immediately after the end of WWII, the staffs of specialists from the Third Reich were assigned to serve themselves. Tch what's new then?

[solar]

Nothing surprising if you read the report at the link in the article to the end.
It says at the end that

The Ukrainian military's practice of placing military installations in populated areas in no way justifies Russia's indiscriminate attacks.

and Russia is habitually accused of

...Russian strikes documented by Amnesty International in recent months were carried out using indiscriminate weapons, including internationally banned cluster munitions or other large-area explosive weapons... Indiscriminate attacks that kill or injure civilians or cause damage to civilian objects are war crimes.

So there is nothing special in the report, it is quite consistent with the practice of AI reports in recent months, nothing new, the focus is still the same as it was

[Uncle lee]

Amnesty International has documented war crimes committed by Ukrainian troops.

Marvelous ! And most importantly, very fast...

And this is already a "call!" Even "bell ringing"! The UN should also investigate Yelenovka. The Red Cross will add something else Like this, all together, all together...they will begin to surrender Ukraine. (Maybe they gave the go-ahead from the USA?)

The UN should also investigate Yelenovka. The Red Cross will add more

If the State Department allows them to do this, the Red Cross has already begun to wag its tail.

[parusnik]

Amnesty International has not released this information out of the blue. As if this had not happened during the 8 years of the conflict in the Donbass.

These are not the military, these are bandits and terrorists.

[rotmistr60]

the Kyiv regime received a blow to pride from Western "partners"

Well, if Amnesty International, which is far from pro-Russian views, has finally paid attention to this, then obviously the Kyiv regime will begin to receive a "blow to pride" more often and every time more painfully. Here, finally, the UN gave birth to a desire to investigate the attack on the pre-trial detention center in Yelenovka. Let's see how objective their report on the investigation will be.

[nnm]

Interesting report. In fact, in the original, a lot of space is devoted to describing how the Ukronazis are not just hiding behind the inhabitants, but are placed next to shelters, in hospitals, schools, universities. At the same time, it is noted that there were other, safer for civilians, places for defense nearby - forests, industrial complexes, warehouses, etc.
An unexpected report, to be honest.
At the same time, it will still be necessary that the report was sent to the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but left unanswered

Amnesty International doesn’t understand shit, these are not ukrovoyaks, these are repeaters. They were left for the summer re-examination

[megadeth]

«military facility means so far as objects are concerned, any object which, by virtue of its nature, location, purpose or use, makes an effective contribution to military action and whose total or partial destruction, capture or neutralization, under the circumstances at the time, provides a clear military advantage ".
"Civilian objects are all objects that are not military objectives."
International law requires that in times of hostilities a distinction should always be made between civilian and military objectives.
Definitions of military and civilian objects were developed and agreed upon over several years during the development of the Geneva Conventions of 1949. Since then, not a single international organization, not a single meeting of international experts has assumed the responsibility and courage to revise this definition. This is one of those cornerstones of international humanitarian law, on which all the provisions of the "law of war" are based, and a change in its essence will inevitably entail a chain reaction of changes and additions in dozens and hundreds of international legal acts. We must know these definitions and be guided by them when organizing the protection of military installations.

The Manual on International Humanitarian Law for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation defines military facilities (Article 1). Military installations - units of the armed forces (personnel, weapons and military equipment), with the exception of medical units and sanitary vehicles; objects (structures, buildings) used (prepared for use) for military purposes; other objects which, by their nature, value, location or use, make an effective contribution to hostilities and whose total or partial destruction, capture or neutralization under the given conditions of the situation gives a clear military advantage.
Military objectives are considered legitimate targets for attack, unless such objects are classified as especially dangerous objects.
A military objective remains so even if there are civilians on it.
What doubts can we have, it is necessary to wet the ukrofascists

with the utmost cruelty

and do not breed demagoguery ...

[Horon]

my son often took food to the soldiers.

He was killed on the spot. Our house was partially destroyed.

Karma.

[Baobabus]

"Battlefield..."
No one will come out to fight in the field - they will immediately bury him there, and that's it. The only chance to hold out for any length of time is to hide behind civilians in a populated area.

[aszzz888]

Moreover, the human rights organization Amnesty International recorded war crimes committed by Ukrainian troops.

They will kill, trample, bring this organization into all the "peacekeepers". So far, "Voice in the Desert!"

Well, they won’t show the world ...

[shapkin ushankin]

The craving for knowledge suddenly arose ...

[GNM]

...Amnesty International material says that Ukraine violates international humanitarian law...

When will there be material for petal mines?

[kakvastam]

Quite an unexpected report.
Russian troops are kicking, but the main focus is on Ukrainian abuses.
It does not happen!

[iouris]

It has broken, is breaking, and will continue to break. They didn't see, they don't see, and they're not going to raise their eyelids.
