One of the only true 'responsibilities' of Lemmy users is to conduct themselves in a manner that encourages user participation. This is not that and you are getting close to harrassement territory.
Drop it, and complain to the Lemmy/Mastodon devs.
Achtung! Seien Sie zivil.
Reuters vs Aljazeera... I wonder which is the more believable news source, particularly with regards to Israel events.
edit: Without getting into the weeds Liberalism and Left/Right are usually considered separate spectrums and the definition varies wildly depending on where you're from.
Please read more carefully. I did not say "is now..." and the civilian casualty count is nowhere near 200k but rather closer to 40k.
Edit: But I also agree they are liberal too.
In the future, it's better to link to the original news article rather than a derivative citing it. Particularly when the derivative also needs translation.
The lemmy.world news mods are absolutely biased, break their own rules blatantly, and clearly support a left/far-left agenda.
That said, it's pretty unnecessary to hide genocide when the ICJ hasn't ruled one occurred yet.
The fate that awaits them after immersing fresh wounds in river water should be a deterrent for any of their comrades that come in contact with them in the next couple days.
Russian navy starts major drills involving most of its fleet
MOSCOW, July 30 (Reuters) - Russia's navy began planned exercises involving most of its fleet in the Arctic and Pacific oceans as well and the Baltic and Caspian seas, the defence ministry said on Tuesday...
...Since President Vladimir Putin sent thousands of troops into Ukraine in February 2022, the Russia's Black Sea fleet - the only Russian fleet formation not taking part in the drills - has struggled to adapt to dynamic modern drone warfare and the chief of the navy was replaced earlier this year.
Ukraine's Zelenskiy visits frontline area in Kharkiv region
KYIV, July 29 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday he had travelled to the frontline area of Vovchansk in the northeastern Kharkiv region near the Russian border, where Moscow's forces have been trying to break through.
Had he stated anything about what the SOF in Ukraine were doing I would agree with you. I believe the consensus is they are there training Ukraine troops.
It's technically not disinformation. Just a flawed conclusion. Politely pointing out alternative, more accurate, ways to look at it is the recommended method.

You really could. They have a personal wealth that rivals some nations GDP. Paying almost every penny they make in profit to maintain that level of privilege is fine by me.
They aren't 'hostages'. They are prisoners of war.
Edit: They are required by international law to take POWs if they surrender properly, so yes they take POWs

Before it was American and European trainers doing the training in European countries. Now it's the trainees becoming the trainers.

However, 82 firefighters and 32 units of equipment were involved in trying to put out fires at the other two tanks, Smirnov said on the Telegram messaging app.
Won't need to imagine it. It will be real one day soon enough. Ukraine has the will and support for it.
Oh, it is not the only indication. Russian tank and artillery stores nearing exhaustion, being so desperate as to slap ERA on a hitch Mount artillery piece, billions in confiscated Russian assets being sent to reimburse Ukraine, appealing to NKorea for military aid, their patsy no longer being a shoe-in for US president, etc... I honestly feel there's a light at the end of the tunnel atm.
Kremlin says Russia is open to talks with Ukraine while Zelenskiy is in power but needs more details
> MOSCOW, July 25 (Reuters) - The Kremlin signalled on Thursday it was open to negotiations with Ukraine on ending the conflict while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy remains in power despite publicly doubting his legitimacy to rule.
Nothing to get excited about. Although, it seems to me a sign Russia is really starting to feel the pain.
