Twenty civilians were killed in a calculated attack on a bread queue while starvation tactics are being deployed across Ukraine, a global law firm has said ruth_comerford reports
A Grad rocket is capable of firing 40 rockets in 20 seconds, and specifically manufactured to be able to clear a one-kilometre square block. Firing the rocket into a populous urban area is very likely to kill civilians and wreak damage, the SMJT report says.
Elsewhere in Chernihiv, air and artillery attacks on critical water infrastructure have been reported, while a broader range of tactics have been witnessed across the region. The “medieval” methods identified include pillaging agricultural machinery, blocking ports, obstructing humanitarian access and shelling residential areas, hospitals and supermarkets.
Catriona Murdoch, partner and head of starvation portfolio at the human rights firm said the starvation crimes are “the tip of the iceberg” in“From our initial investigations into Russia’s starvation crimes in , the evidence is pointing towards a deliberate plan carefully designed to undermine and attack the very foundation and societal fabric of Ukrainians, subjecting them to inhumane living conditions,” she said.“It is imperative that these crimes are fully investigated so that we can create a bedrock of truth and a historical record which can be used both to counter Russia’s lies and to find justice for Ukraine’s victims and the survivors of these crimes.
