How come when Russia drops bombs it's a military target (or something meters away from one) but when Ukraine drops bombs it's always schools, apartments, and shopping malls?
Russia just killed six people, including two children in Donetsk yesterday.
Russia has dropped many bombs on civilians building and infrastructure.
https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2022/08/ukraine-ukrainian-fighting-tactics-endanger-civilians/ again, meters away from military targets.
Amnesty has to throw its "both sides" shit into it as always but even a propaganda arm of the UK government admits Ukraine has been deliberately firing weapons dangerously close to civilian infrastructure. That "hamas uses human shields" nonsense that nobody ever provides proof of? There's ample proof when it comes to Ukraine (and Israel), it's the CIA playbook.
Maybe read your own article?
"...In certain other locations in which Amnesty International concluded that Russia had committed war crimes, including in some areas of the city of Kharkiv, the organization did not find evidence of Ukrainian forces located in the civilian areas unlawfully targeted by the Russian military."
Using your same source (therefore I assume you accept it as credible) here are a few articles from this year showing Russia as the problem in the conflict, including one specifically calling out the Russia war crimes against civilians (you should particularly pay attention to the link to the report about "deadly Russian airstrikes on civilians")

Maybe understand that Amnesty always has been a tool for manufacturing consent for western intervention, and if they're criticizing a western ally that means something is horribly wrong with them, but they're gonna have to fling criticism at the other party any way they can as well.
I don't use it because I consider it trustworthy in and of itself, but because you probably do. In the same way you'd probably use a CGTN source to say "even china admits it" or teleSUR to say "even Venezuela admits it" when criticizing either of them.
Nah, it's just China bad with infinite Zenz source loops.
Interesting, thank you for sharing.
Didn't Russia bomb a building with "children" painted in front of it once
One of these two actors is actively and aggressively siezing strategic territory needed for a sound position in a changing climate. I'll give you a hint: neither of them give a shit about living in Russia.
I hope to see this same victim blaming enthusiasm when America invades Canada and Greenland for the same reasons.
Nice word salad you got there, but smashing a dozen military sounding buzzwords doesn't make your sentences coherent, it just makes you look like a dumbass redditor.
Also "If you're not critical of military opposition to american interventionism, I hope to see you enthusiastic about American interventionism for the same reasons". You libs would be funny as hell if I didn't have to live with the consequences of your racism and idiocy.
Ukrainian neofascists, among other anticommunists, want to partition the Russian Federation.
Please tell me you are being sarcastic.
If that's not possible, please check news sources other than RT.
You are either a troll, a Russian bot, or completely obtuse.
bombing civilian targets yields bigger optics and fatigues the population
i don't know that the split in strategy between the two belligerents is as plain as you're implicating though
