    Russias killed far more than 12k, its well recorded there are mass graves in places such as Mariupol with a unknown number of bodies. The UN itself has specifically verified at least 30k and given the numbers of missing persons its likely to be in the hundreds of thousands.

    Stop regurgitating Russian propaganda numbers.

      From your own link, under “Millions displaced, thousands dead”: “30,457 civilian casualties since 24 February 2022, including 10,582 killed and 19,875 injured” (emphasys mine).

      I actually used a larger number I found in a different website (but I lost the link for that) because that latter article was from a later date and had the numbers for 3 years of war.

      Apparently and in your own words, the UN is “regurgitating Russian propaganda numbers”.

      Whatever motivates you to post this, it ain’t a need for Justice or an abhorrence for the murder of civilians.
