🇷🇺 routinely uses violence against civilian populations to achieve political goals. While 🇷🇺 actions certainly exceed what we might imagine to be "sponsoring," #SST designation triggers important legal ramifications specifically for states engaging *directly* in terrorism. 2/10

In the last week, I and many more Ukrainians feel that people in the world stopped caring about what is happening in Ukraine, more people find it easier to just throw some statement that devalues the context of this war. Here is the list of what was happening in the last week:
- Russia has been bombing civilians and killed many
- In Kherson, they started deportations
- They are planning to use civilians as a shield for escape and possibly blow up a dam
- Russia stole many more children from parents and has given them for adoption to Russia
