Because Ukraine is not committing brutal crimes, not lobbing rockets randomly, hoping to kill anyone, civilian or not. Not hoping to eradicate their enemy (that is the stated goal of Hamas). Ukraine government is not in power because of violence, but because they were voted in. Hamas is in power only because they have weapons and other palestinians don't (given to them by other extremist Muslims, who want to see Jews die).
So let me say it again, this conflict is not fucking comparable.
Check your sources bias. Control phrase is "cluster munitions, Donetsk". Russia is faaaar from being free of guilt, but, while they have capability to do this to ALL Ukrainian cities, I don't see any footage of landmines all over Kiyv and Lviv. Another check is to listen to chants(e.g. москаляку на гіляку, смерть русні, etc) of each side. This effectively flips your argument upside down.
Definitely not comparable, though, at least that we can agree.
