Two documentaries are set to premiere in September that will show Russian war crimes committed in Ukraine following their February invasion of the sovereign Ukraine. From the Associated Press:
"Two documentaries detailing the punishing effects of Russia’s war on Ukraine will air on PBS’ 'Frontline' investigative series.
The specials are part of an extensive collaboration between the series and The Associated Press that includes gathering, verifying and cataloging potential war crimes and co-publishing stories and videos from AP and 'Frontline' war reporting.
'Putin’s Attack on Ukraine: Documenting War Crimes,' will describe the toll of previous Russian conflicts and the invasion of Ukraine. [snip]
The second documentary, '20 Days in Mariupol,' will view Russia’s attack on the Ukrainian city through the work of AP video journalist Mstyslav Chernov. He and two colleagues were the sole international journalists who remained in Mariupol to cover the attack, which included the bombing of a maternity hospital."
These important documentaries are another tool to hold Russian thug Putin to account for his army's war crimes, with the International Criminal Court having already launched an investigation into war crimes and genocide following the massacres in Bucha, Ukraine.
Russia's vicious campaign to erase Ukraine and absorb it into a new Russian empire has had attacks on the civilian population as a main feature and tactic. They have to be held to account for their criminal behavior.
