Factions of the Ukrainian side have been, since very nearly the start of this thing, using civilians as human shields as a strategy.
I wonder what kind of strategy it is, can you tell us more about it?
By most of the interviews I've heard, civilians are reporting that the Russians have been fairly helpful in trying to allow them to leave the combat zones when they can. This makes logical sense, and most of the actual evidence that I can see backs that up.
Are you listening to an interview on pro-russian television? You will not be told anything else. The russian invaders are offering some "help" just to record what they are supposed to be giving, to feed their sheep on TV. And in order for Ukrainians to come to them for this disgusting false "help", they first drop bombs on maternity hospitals, clinics and schools. I wonder if you will go for help if your child dies in your arms? Because this is the only case when Ukrainians can ask for ''help'' from these killers.
This is a good case-in-point where as the Russian gain control, freedom of movement seems to be restored.
In your opinion, do Russians live well? Is this the country you want to move to on a permanent basis? Is this the country they go to visit en masse? Is this a country where people can be themselves and have the right to freedom of speech? Is this a country that is inventing something new that is changing the lives of the entire planet? Is this a country that can be proud of its innovative approaches? Is this the country that the whole world is now defending? If you answer "yes" to all these questions, then you are fooling yourself. And it's even worse than being deceived by this lying state.
