In any war, the civilian population of the country where the hostilities are fought is the first to suffer. And although they are protected by international conventions, the obligations to comply with them are very rarely fulfilled by the belligerents.
The events in Ukraine are no longer a small spark, but a terrible catastrophe, the largest military conflict on the territory of the USSR. Huge territories with the skeletons of burnt high-rise residential buildings, millions of refugees and internally displaced people cause shock. No less shocking is the disregard for the lives of the civilian population. Civilian infrastructure is used to accommodate the combat positions of equipment and units. Civilian infrastructure facilities are being shelled.
