This documentary should be on Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and every streaming service
Seconding this
The subtitles should be voice-over translated to the westerners who must face the fact of what the “ordinary russians” are
But what if it offends Moscowites? Money doesn't smell, especially not of blood.
Не должен. Потому,что это ложь.
@@LarisaSmirnova0108 Dear Larisa: in the US in the 1960s we experienced the Vietnam war; it happened again in 2003 during Iraq. Each American had to come to terms that out government had lied to us. At some point Russians will have to face this hard truth (similar to the German experience). Best of luck to you

Dear friends, we decided to re-upload our recent film by our War Crimes Investigations Unit since the previous version received restrictions from UA-cam and couldn't reach a broad audience. This version doesn't contain the shots of the mass graves in Izium, Kharkiv Oblast.
We seek your assistance in showcasing the diligent efforts of our War Crimes Investigations Unit to a global audience, enabling broader awareness of the egregious crimes by Russians against Ukrainians. Please watch, comment and share.
I encourage everyone around the world to postal letter write to the churches in the regions relating to the senators in USA that are withholding aid to Ukraine. The Ukrainian children of Ukraine will start this project. Will you ? Remind voters to not support these senators at the next election in USA
Shared ✔️ 💙💛
We stand with Ukraine 💛💛💙💙
War crimes have been carried out by both Ukraine and Russia,but genocide? where not more than 30,000 civilians have been killed in 3 years? that's not a genocide period.
No one cares and/or believes in these fairytales
Декілька слів підтримки та подяка, щоб ютуб просував це відео! Дякую!

My grandmother told me how difficult it was during the famine, about terrible things that I cannot tell here because of youtube censorship. And here again, my family is losing its members because of russia. Unfortunately, evil is always losing only in Hollywood movies, and the reality is slightly different. Thank you for this material and for not being indifferent.
Thank you for producing this video.
Thank you for watching!
Agree. Thanks for getting this out.

The issue of the aid being with held by congress. Is Congress is demanding that Democrats and Biden close our border. One terrorist from Yemen has been caught with guns in North Carolina by luck of police. One was caught in El Paso he’s with Hezbollah after lengthy questioning he revealed his plan of bombing NYC. We just had a 22 year old nursing student killed while jogging in a college campus her skull was beaten in. It was an illegal and his brother a Venezuelan gang member. 2 cops were beaten in NYC from Venezuelan gang members. I could go on and on and on. Biden and Democrats refuse and it’s unacceptable that he’s allowing American innocent civilians be assaulted and killed. It’s also breaking us financially as billions are being spent on housing and food. Many of us want to help Ukraine including MAGA but we want our own border secure and our finances to go to help people in America that are desperately in need and help places like Ukraine that need our help. We are 33 trillion in debt and the billions we are throwing at illegals is hurting us. The fact that Biden and Democrats refuse to close our border which will free up money for Ukraine is mind boggling and infuriating but they are trying to blame republicans and MAGA using it as a tool for their own power in an upcoming election
The Senate voted %70 to support Ukraine. You're thinking of Congress and even there things are not as they appear. It's both parties and they refuse to legislate anything before elections that give them fame, money and if they win, power.
The President has a lot of authority over military powers. He can go as far as declaring a police action. He can give all sorts of military support but is sitting on the elections. This is not because of opinions about russia or Ukraine. It's part of the election cycle.
You're right about appealing to religious leaders. Many USA Protestants have ministries in Ukraine and are some of the best helpers anyone could have. These pastors also have influence on a big faction of the GOP, the evangelical vote. trump has no chance without them and the Catholic vote. So good idea still.

@@bigolboomerbelly4348 thanks for your ideas 💡
Thank you for this excellent informative film. It makes a very strong case to support the claim that genocide is taking place in Ukraine. I hope as many people as possible will see it and spread the word about the inhumanity of the Russian Federation.
And don't forget to show your support on all social media platforms! I heard it hurts Russians a lot, devastating damage! 😂
Дякую #MokRec за журналістську роботу на державу Україна ❤
Бажаю здоров'я та наснаги продовжувати так надалі.
I understand a court of law can be technical and requires the correct evidence to legally prove something. The troubling thing in the case of genocide, it seems, is that it is only after the mass killing & destruction of people that the 'evidence' now exists.
The Rwandan genocide didn't start with a million deaths but it ended with a million.
The holocaust didn't start with 6 million deaths but ended that way.
The holodomor didn't start with 4 million deaths but quickly achieved it.
The invasion of Ukraine may not have started with millions of deaths. But how is it going to end, given the clear rhetoric of the destruction of everything Ukrainian coming out of Russia?
May Ukraine get all the help it needs to defend itself against the Russian genociders.
Minsk 1 and 2.. peace talk march or april 2022
@@870annie up your arse Minsk 1 and 2 go f yourself and all the people from RuSlaveLand that support Putler . Even a shit it's more useful than rus
I'd ammend it to say only after places are liberated, the 'evidence' is discovered.
You made it sound like evidence only exists, ie is fabricated, after liberation.
why didn't you mention what's happening in Palestine?
@AbuBawa-sw1ut That is genocide.
I think that Europe sees that this is genocide and that everything is leading to the complete/partial extermination of us as a nation, but it does not want to recognize this, which means to bear certain obligations along with this recognition
Why should they suffer or pay for your mistakes?
Because it's not just our mistakes. For decades, Europe has fed this dictatorial regime with hundreds of billions of dollars in gas and oil, it has grown this nightmare and it is as responsible as we are. When an act of genocide is committed, which Moscovia is currently committing, the very fact of being born Ukrainian is considered a mistake. Their goal is to erase any nationality, to make you a vegetable without any hint of exceptionality
Thank you for posting
Дякуємо за англійську версію. Дуже цікавий фільм
Надзвичайно важко дивитися. Плакала.....але вдячна, що висвітлюєте це дике сьогодення
Thank you for your work! It’s hard to watch, but it’s so necessary to see.
With the loss of so many Ukrainian soldiers the future depends upon the children growing up to take their place in society. It makes the kidnapping of these kids even more tragic given the heavy losses of Ukrainian men.
Vermute zur Sicherheit der Kinder und vielleicht auch zum Eigennutz ,wenn es kein Ende findet.
@@kathiValente127 Тоді чому їм не дозволили виїхати з батьками? Чому діти, яких змогли повернути, розповідають, як їх "перевиховують" у росіян, кажуть, що батькам вони не потрібні,,що Росія їх врятувала, а тих, хто опирається, проситься додому, принижують і карають. Головне, що цих дітей готують іти до війська воювати проти України. .Дуже багато російські пропагандисти знімають сюжетів на цю тему, тож це не лише з розповідей дітей, що втекли.
Коли родини намагаються виїхати з окупованої території подалі від війни (а пускають лише у бік Росії), то родини кілька разів проходять так звану фільтрацію, де можуть допитати дітей окремо від батьків, тож дитину треба навчити казати "правильно", а не як було насправді, бо якщо дитина скаже, наприклад, що село обстрілювали росіяни, чи що батьки казали щось добре про Україну чи лихе про Росію, то дитину могли у батьків забрати, чи батьки могли "затриматись" на допиті і більше не повернутись. Всім, хто виїжджає подалі від фронту потрібно мати гарне пояснення (їдуть до родичів в Крим чи Росію, в лікарню...) й гроші на хабар для виїзду за межі району, й всю подальшу дорогу нарікати на Україну, дякувати Росії, давати пропагандистам те, що вони хочуть почути на камеру.... І потім, якщо не поїхав далі, а залишився в Росії, продовжувати це казати завжди і всім навколо, навіть рідним і дітям теж, бо це запорука добробуту, безпеки й умова, що дитина ніде не обмовиться і їх там взагалі приймуть.
@@kathiValente127
You are wrong. The Russian army killed the parents. Then kidnapped the children and sent them to special camps “for re-education"
Thank you for this very important documentary!
It's remarkable how calmly they can stay when describing this Russian horror.
Посол Росії в ООН весь час говорить, що емоції і жах свідків, доказова база шокуючих злочинів ніби є незаперечним доказом, що це лише фейк і істерія. Багато поважних ЗМІ, організацій у США і Європі вважають недоречним висвітлювати масові вбивства і катування, також посилаючись на ніби "недоречну" емоційність і "надмірну" травматичність. Для кейсів в міжнародних судах, теж потрапляють злочини краще задокументовані, свідкам яких пощастило вціліти й не травмуватись до такого ступеню, що їх легко буде звинуватити у психічній нестабільності, на противагу більш вразливим. Також деякі міжнародні організації мають протоколи збору свідчень, за якими раніше кимось опитані жертви і свідки вважаються дискредитованими. Багато тих, хто звернувся за допомогою до волонтерів, правоохоронців, кого реанімували лікарі, а потім від зневіри рятували психіатри, можуть бути тими, хто ще не давав свідчень до зустрічі з цими експертами в безпечних умовах й через тисячі кілометрів від місця злочину? Потім читаєш повідомлення, як вони фіксують свідчення злочинів, опитуючи тих, кому пощастило не потрапити у саме пекло, чи кого окупанти не вважали українцями (говорить російською, не боронив країну, не був вчителем, лікарем... будь-яким активним членом громади, іде на співпрацю чи імітує її), хто добре ховався, кому пощастило оминути епіцентр подій і тому врятувався і має достатньо сил і можливостей дістатись табору біженців і спілкуватись без подібної допомоги.
Тож, на мою думку, автори вимушені відкинути емоції і зосередитись на міжнародному праві й висновках науковців. І з тієї ж причини не показали жодної ілюстрації, через яку могли би заборонити показ, посилаючись на "травматичність" і "жорстокість".
Booo bad bad Russians! 😂 It seems you believe in fairytales- is Santa Claus real?
So important to have this in English! Will be spreading this as much as I can, and encourage everyone to do so too!
Не стоит маяться дурью. Лучше продолжайте прыгать- скакать и выкладывать всем на радость.😂

Really important theme of this war... Thank you for work!
Thank you for bringing up this topic
Will watch , like and share again.

Thank you Kyiv Independent
Bravo Kyiv independent. Another masterclass of film making. Stay safe!
The evidences of Crime of genocide are so clear that nobody could argue against them.
So clear that not everyone can even notice them 😂 it seems like you believe in fairytales - is Santa Claus real?
Thank you for this movie. It's a very important topic to investigate. Ruzzia is a tezzorist state.
I know it's late in the war but I just have told my wife I'm going to Ukraine because it's My destiny and I feel I have no right to live guilt Free while this is happening my legs work and my back is strong and they need help my wife says I don't love her because of my decision but if she only knew
I applaud your willingness to fight for them. Where are you from though?
bro dont just leave your family to go get unalived in ukraine unless you are already divorcing or something. There are other ways you can help ukraine alot without having to be on the frontlines, especially if you dont have military experience or know the language you may be more useful in other positions
True. It's a meat grinder
Don't go, enough have died, stay with your family.

The Russian Maxim Gorkij ( 1868-1936 ) in his book “ Mother” he distinguishes sharply between Ukrainians and Russians.
Aren't Ukrainians an ethnic Russian subgroup, like in the north or in Volga region? Isn't a Ukrainian lsnguage a southern dialect which is easily understood by Russians?
Russians and Ukrainians are not distinguished genetically. The only difference is that Ukrainians were uneducated peasant people in the south and south-west of Russian empire.
yes, but he was ukrainian writer
@@user-cj2uf2oe1q He was from Novgorod, Russia
Why is this re-uploaded?
(Is there any changes I need to be aware of)
They added evidence against Russia
Hi, thank you for your comment. We added a note explaining our decision: The previous film was restricted by UA-cam, which significantly impacted its performance. After running an analysis, we concluded that the part that was most likely triggering the algorithm was the one showing the images of the mass graves in Izium. This version has fewer explicit images in that part. That's the only change that was made for our team to give the film a chance to be seen by a wider audience.
@@kyivindependentThanks for the explanation. I do understand this topic is hard on a platform like youtube, but I appreciate that you are trying to make it work. I hope you will gain some traction on youtube, cause seeing things from your perspective and in English is unique. Keep up the good work👍
It's part of a concerted propaganda (I mean that in the best way) push to get US taxpayers' 60 billion dollars.
Wow thank you for this great information.
William Schabas should find a new line of work because he is not even close to being scholarly, or maybe he's blind or works for the FSB
If someone has an opinion you don’t like it doesn’t make them FSB

Duh. It's round 2. Look up Holodomor. 😢
@user-fm5hx3rh5q The Soviet famine that affected the Ukrainian SSR, the Russian Federated SSR, and the Kazakh SSR? Okay. And you look up Tambov's rebellion of peasants in Russia in the early 1920s and particularly notice where the Bolshevik generals who suppressed it were from. Hint -- in means 'Frontier' in slavic languages.
Thank you for the good and much needed work.

Pourquoi ???!
Why always accompany these images with music!
As if we weren't capable of understanding? As if we had to emphasize the emotions we should feel? As if making a spectacle of it would make it easier for us to digest?
Thank you anyway for this testimony and these elements of understanding.

A very important film and, together with the film 20 Days in Mariupol, shows from different sides how Russia destroy Ukraine and everything related to it ...

Well, what did the katchaps not do in Ukraine that they have done before in Poland, Karelia, Estonia, Finland, Romania, Hungary, Prussia, Latvia, Germany, Austria, Bulgaria, Manchuria and Afghanistan? Why is it that after their crimes there are "heroes" and memorials are build erected to them - and suddenly they became criminals for the same thing?
