Then show us what your relatives saw at that maternity hospital that was bombed or the nuclear power plant that was fired upon…or the State News source you’re reading this from.

US also bombed hospitals in Afghanistan in 2015. And it wasn't qualified like a crime.
For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunduz_hospital_airstrike 42 killed. No sanctions.
At least in Ukraine it was empty (no civilians) building.
The American attack on the hospital was wrong. Was it an error or deliberate and a mistake? Who knows, however they were man enough to admit that it was a mistake and had a full investigation into how it happened, and apologised and made restitution. Their attack was heavily criticized in media throughout the west.
Don't claim any moral equivalence on behalf of a country with a track record of attacking hospitals, which never admits to military mistakes(because such actions are it's policy), and can no longer be criticised by it's own national media.
Noting that you had to go back seven years to find a western attack on a hospital, just how many hospitals do you think Russia has attacked in that same period?
Now reports coming out that chemical suits are being distributed to Russian soldiers.
I was reading recently about KGB propaganda techniques - and remember Putin is ex KGB. They create a “Hall of Mirrors” effect, so you can have no confidence in what you think you are seeing . Social Media is a rich field of opportunities for the Fake News that help build the Hall of Mirrors . If you do a quick Google search there are stories going back 5 years about Russian soldiers being issued chemical warfare suits. Anything you think you have seen in the past few hours or days could simply be a KGB “disinformation “ exercise. Scepticism is your principal defence
This is just another cheap propaganda tactic to create confusion (disorientation) during Putin's desperate attempt to mask the reality of what he's doing,.as if anyone in the Free World is gullible enough to be swayed by this. I think we'll see a whole barrage of similar "panic tactics" being used as Putin's failure gets scribed in stone for the whole world to see.
1920's war mentality, supported by tactics that date back to the Fred Flintstone era.
“About 6,500 tourists from Russia stranded in Thailand's beach resorts, many unable to pay their bills or return home because of sanctions and canceled flights following Russian invasion of Ukraine.”
…so there are at least 6,500 Russians hearing the truth.
Sadly the USA has had a dismal record in bombing and drone attacks which have killed many innocent civilians much of what has been hushed up by the military.
There is no doubt in my mind that fascist , murderous midget goes down. The only real question whether he will take the whole world with him. The third world war has already begun. What triggered him? Madness? New American supersonic cruise missiles with unlimited range (analogues of Russian Burevestnik which failed)? Parkinson that some suggest? We most probably will never know..
Captured Russian pilot admits to bombing civilians, urges Russia to stop assault: 'We have already lost this war'

Lieutenant Colonel Krishtop Maxim Sergeevich was shot down on March 6 and taken into custody by Ukrainian forces, Interfax Ukraine reported. At a press conference on Friday, Krishtop said he carried out three bombing missions, Newsweek reported.
"In the process of completing the task, I realized that the target was not enemy military facilities, but residential buildings, peaceful people," Krishtop said, per Newsweek. "But I carried out the criminal order."

A Russian spy chief is said to have been placed under house arrest in a sign that President Putin is seeking to blame the security services for the stalled invasion of Ukraine.
Sergey Beseda, head of the FSB’s foreign intelligence branch, was arrested with Anatoly Bolyukh, his deputy, according to a leading expert on the Russian security services.
Andrei Soldatov, who is co-founder and editor of Agentura, an investigative website that monitors the FSB and other agencies, said that sources from within FSB had confirmed the detention of both men.
Vladimir Osechkin, an exiled Russian human rights activist, also confirmed the arrests. He added that FSB officers had carried out searches at more than 20 addresses around Moscow of colleagues suspected of being in contact
One can only hope that Putin is getting a little nervous about a coup.
If I was Putin, I would beware the IDES of March.
I don't put any more weight behind a report like this than I do the propaganda coming from Russian State media.
It's impossible to know if the content of this report is true or not, but I find it a bit hard to swallow that a seasoned Russian Air Force Lieutenant Colonel would make such admissions, regardless if they are true or not. It's not a pleasant thought, but it's also possible that he was subject to torture by his captures.
I'm not buying it until I see a release of the press conference where he made such statements.
And who in the hell is kbalevic@insider.com (Katie Balevic)?
The speculation in the Telegraph is Gen Sergei Shoigu, a long-term ally of Vladimir Putinand current Defence Minister, is seen by some as a ‘politically acceptable’ figurehead for a military coup

cnn?? crappy news network.. china news network??
One can only hope. The amount of destruction caused by Putin to both, Russia and Ukraine for many years to come I think warrants and justifies a coup.
Besides, you'd think the Russian people wouldn't mind a coup. All of a sudden credit cards no longer work, can't fly anywhere and even if they could Ruble is down the toilet, can't get anything delivered via FedEx or UPS, loads of popular stores have disappeared out of malls, loads of services are gone such as Netflix, Spotify, Apply & Google Pay, Facebook, and Instagram, et al. They must be wondering WTF kind of peace keeping mission is this?
Where did Little Putin, err... I mean Moses go?
Even if there was a coup, what makes you think things would go
any differently in Russia under someone else(besides MOSES of course)?
I left Sawatdee last summer simply because I had other things to think about and to think about those as an old geezer (the original good old Geezer to see this disgrace of a Sawatdee message board.)
And yes Moses that would be you ... the disgrace that is. That horror of a so-called President named Putin, who is actually an Nazi as one can be. There is nothing this ghastly murderer will not do or say and lie until the entire population of a legitimate country will be gone.
And I hope the last few folks here will finish off Sawatdee (leave this board.) Moses does not deserve this place.
I im sure this message will be gone quickly. Putin-ish / and now Moses- is like that.
Can't blame Moses for dead CoVid board, Thailand, Putin, or Ukraine.
Now apparently Putin has asked China to help and provide additional military weapons and money.
WTF, Russia is already out of weapons?

COVID has changed international travel and there’s a “new normal “ that doesn’t appeal to many. I wonder about a business model that relies on an elderly white demographic that’s now falling prey to the ailments of a first world “lifestyle “ - diabetes, cancer, and failing bodily functions such as incontinence
I’m expecting some of our UK based members here will be rushing back to take advantage of the “provide accommodation for a cute blue-eyed Ukraine boy In your own home and we’ll pay you for it 350 GB pounds per month scheme” - State subsidised sex”?
No. "U.S. officials" think what "Russia already out of weapons" and NYT published their stupid ideas. No surprise is here: Alzheimer wins.
Pelosi, for example, thinks what Russia invided to Hungary
