UN back at it again with "we have witness testimony but no evidence of this adversary of the US doing horrifying acts"

According to the report though there have just been some cases of Russian soldiers doing it. There doesn’t appear to be the weaponised use of sexual violence a la Isreal, but ya wars are always like this. I’ll never understand the people who simp for them.

Edit: Before any one wants to call me out for minimising SA

Literally every war ever is full of SA

Fucked up. War sucks

I followed the sources they link and the ones those link and found that the best substantiation they have is "according to the accounts collected by some NGOs".

Here's some more up-to-date info regarding a previous ICJ case against Russia, so we can weigh up how much these accusations might be based on fact. Spoiler alert: every accusation is a confession. I'll quote a relevant bit to your atrocity propaganda peddling:

The Court has held that certain materials, such as press articles and extracts from publications, are regarded ‘not as evidence capable of proving facts.’

And this one, regarding the reliability of testimonies presented by Ukraine.

The ICJ was also highly condemnatory of the quality of witnesses and witness evidence produced by Kiev to support these charges[...] Statements attesting to this were “collected many years after the relevant events” and “not supported by corroborating documentation”

I don't doubt there must be unspeakable shit happening, there's been a war for so long that monsters are bound to take part. But I'll hold my judgement as to how systematic it is until evidence is presented (which it absolutely hasn't been), not just claims by notorious liars who said the same shit about Hamas without any evidence and no pushback from these very same publications.

Yes it’s been posted. Thanks

So, just NBC news doing the usual and boosting baseless claims like it did about Hamas and beheaded babies? Do y'all even read the shit you post or do you just skim for a headline that matches what you want to say?

The report cites no evidence and only points to "anonymous sources" (how surprising). NBC also doesn't cite any evidence and points to other articles posted by themselves, one of which says are in the process of collecting the evidence but:

Experts worry that investigations could be less efficient and that some evidence could be mishandled or not make its way to investigative teams with the International Criminal Court and the Prosecutor General’s Office in Ukraine

Really convenient. Excellent standards of proof as always. No wonder the ICJ has denounced the lawfare of Ukraine.

The Court has held that certain materials, such as press articles and extracts from publications, are regarded ‘not as evidence capable of proving facts.’

Indeed.

That article doesn't contain anything about Putin sending soldiers to rape children. Did you post the wrong link?
