500 Russians wiped out after being given just three shovels to dig

IAN BIRRELL: More than 500 conscripts from one Russian battalion were slaughtered in 72 hours after being dumped on the front line and told to dig trenches with just three shovels between them.

It is weird what equipment is in plentiful supply and what is in extremely short supply for the Russian forces - you'd think a basic shovel or some kind of trench digging tool they'd have plenty of. From what I can make out there seems to be some kind of expectation they can easily scrounge up something for digging in the field.

It's almost like Russia are trying to wipe out some of their conscripts at this stage. There was speculation that it would be cheaper to kill off prison inmates than to house them in prison.

Is sharing photographs of prisoners of war banned by the Geneva Convention? - Full Fact

Legal opinion suggests sharing photographs of prisoners of war doesn’t necessarily breach the Convention—but it still may be better not to do so.

'Public curiosity' in the 1949 Geneva Conventions: the interpretation developed by the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the British Red Cross

www.gov.uk www.gov.uk

  1. Any image of Prisoners of War (POWs) as identifiable individuals should normally be regarded as subjecting such individuals to public curiosity and should not be transmitted, published or broadcast. Where the specific circumstances of a case make it necessary in the public interest to reveal the identity of a POW (e.g. because of the person’s seniority, or because the person is a fugitive from international justice) great care should be taken to protect the person’s human dignity.
  2. Images of POWs individually or in groups in circumstances which undermine their public dignity, should not normally be transmitted, published or broadcast. In the exceptional circumstances where such images are transmitted, for example, to bring to public attention serious violations of international humanitarian law, individual identities must be protected.

If so then a picture is fair game.
