these have been proven to be photoshops; there are plenty of videos of Russians doing similiar things to Ukrainian pows and those too may be fake

Pointless even bothering to argue with the level of disinformation that the Kremlin is engaging in. However... it is nigh effortless for the FSB or presumably more likely the GRU (suppose it could be any unit tbh) to use captured Ukrainian equipment and speaking a language that is practically the same to create a reasonable enough illusion for mostly domestic audiences.

The same can be said of Ukraine, but I don't see what incentive they could possibly have when Russia's forces create more than enough propaganda merely by their presence.

Fair enough. It will come to light in due course. War crimes going on on both sides I'm sure.

Well it's impossible to stop literally every individual doing something that doesn't conform to the rules of war, it's lamentable but there's really not much to be done about it except hope military/judicial procedures minimise the possibility of it happening/punishing it when it does.

Shame looks like they wasted that one. RPG would have been a better option from that angle and range.

Yeah, there is a tad of tragic comedy that any of their own anti-tank weapons would have deleted that T-72 from that angle but the super one we sent them can't due to health and safety xD

NATO really should step up and create a safe zone to western Ukraine at least, leaving several hundreds kilometers between them and the russian troops. This would be to protect sivilians aswell.
