Draft:2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine
It never changes War |
A view to kill |
The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine is an ongoing conflict which began on February 24, 2022.[1]
Background[edit]
Russia and Ukraine have had bad blood before this, but the fan was particularly hit after the Euromaidan protests that forced Putin's buddy Viktor Yanukovych, Ukrainian president at the time, out of power in 2014. This led to a smaller invasion from Russia, in which they took control of, and then annexed, the Crimean Peninsula. Afterwards there was a ceasefire, though bad blood would boil for the next 8 years. However, Putin became impatient and fearing Ukraine would join NATO trigged the "special military operation" on 24 February 2022 to invade the rest of Ukraine, but Putin's dream has been a failure so far.
Invasion[edit]
Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 February 2022 as part of its "special military operation" it tries to conduct [2]. Russia rapidly expanded into Ukraine territories, with Putin's main aim of capturing Kiev shortly after the war started. However Russia was not able to do so and soon was forced into a standoff where neither side overcame the other.
Phase 1: Russian expansionism[edit]
Russia expanded from the north, south, and center of Ukraine with its main objective trying to capture Kiev.
North invasion[edit]
Phase 2[edit]
War crimes[edit]
War crimes have been committed by both Russia and Ukraine, but most of theses war crimes are committed by Russia in order to be like the SS Nazis to make Hitler proud. The war crimes range from mass murder, rape, torture, rocket attacks, human shields, deportation, looting, inhumane treatment of prisoners, and beating up Zelensky in Putin's bed.
