  Pretty sure they will. Those things take time and research (and rightly so). But they will eventually be held accountable for this at The Hague.

  Fuck you russia >
  
  Even if it was Ukraine’s own air defense, which it wasn’t. 
  It would still be Russia’s fault, cause they are the people firing the missles  in the first place. 
  Such a pathetic and cowardly  excuse. At least have the balls to own up to being the evil fucks you are. It’s not like the Russian people will ever hold them accountable. >
  
  Russia has a new top general. The last guy targeted power and water and it didn't work. The new guy is probably targeting civilians, hoping that has better results. >
  
  Blows my mind that they are willing to waste limited military resources on this. All they're doing is shaking the wasp's nest, and pissing off a population that has the full financial backing of the West to fight Russia for as long as they're willing. >
  
  This is what I’ll never understand about Russia.
  It’s clear to the entire world that Russia is operating with limited supplies of everything, especially missiles. Them doing this only makes the Ukrainian’s more determined to win and dwindles Russian already limited supplies. Surely the Russian government must realise that there will be a day where they can’t keep hitting Ukraine with missiles and Ukraine will unleash months of pent up anger against them, centuries if you include everything that happened to Ukraine before this war. While Ukraine continues to get stronger, Russia continues to weaken. And that will happen until the Russians are fully kicked out of Ukraine.
  Russia will suffer. And not just the population, the government will too, the ones who weren’t lucky enough to die before the fall of Russia that is. Ukraine will one day snap and hit back hard. There’s only so much a government can sit back and watch their people be massacred en masse before they retaliate. The Russian military will disintegrate against a fully equipped, heavily armoured Ukrainian army. Russia will eventually be forced to concede, whether that’s in a year or ten years, Ukraine will fight to the bitter end either way, and the government will face a very angry population, with their military either all gone or ready to revolt.
  And I don’t believe putin is this stupid. Which makes me winder what he actually wants. I don’t think he expects, or even wants to win this war. I think he just wants to cause chaos and destruction everywhere he can before he kicks the bucket. >
  
  What does a person willing to die wish to understand?  Nothing.  He is in it until he wins or he is removed … period. >
  
  He has already lost. >
  
  And yet it doesn’t seem to matter to him? He’s not done is the point until he’s dead. He will continue to cause death and destructive actions . >
  
  It’s just amazing. I just don’t understand how a person could be that evil. >

  Civilians under the rubble >
  
  Is that a dead guy to the left? On the ground? Jesus >
  
  Yes. By far not the goriest photo. It seems you haven't seen 3yo girl from Vinnytsya that was disemboweled and almost turn in half by the part of the ruzki missile debris. >
  
  Having a 3 y/o myself, this would fuck me up to see. Even reading it is turning my stomach. I'm not a violent man and have never even fought, but I'd happily watch a 50 caliber bullet open a window in Putin's head. Would save thousands of lives; very possibly thousands of children too. >
  
  putin is too easy to put the blame on, but the reality is much more harsh. It's not putin who gives and executes the exact orders, it's not putin who is cheering up on the news of the dead ukrainian children in the comments, it's not putin who says nothing about this war, or even in some verbal or text form condemns it - but still fucking keeps funding it and support russian war machine with their actions.
  Every. Fucking. Russian. Who does nothing to actually stop the war, overthrow totalitarian government, fight even for THEIR OWN COUNTRY'S FUTURE.
  Is responsible. >
  
  I agree but still think killing him has the best chance of ending things.
  Also, it's not like they haven't tried. They've been trying for at least a decade but Putin's been efficient at defenestrating/silencing any opposition. And a revolution still needs charasmatic leaders to lead (see: Alexei Navalny) >
  
  Navalny aka ex-white power neonazi who said “Crimea is not a sandwich to give it back” yeah…. >
  
  Huh, I hadn't heard about that before. But quick research shows he had made some hateful comments years ago. Regardless, there's still plenty of other examples of Putin's opposition being silenced. >
  
  Yes. But please keep in mind that putin opposition does not equal someone less imperialistic and better in common moral sense.
   As a ukrainian I think if navalny would become a ruler - we would get a much worse war in the next years. That time it would be less corrupt on the rus side and it would cause more death to us >
  
  People are thinking that Putin is bad because he usurped the power. However, how does it come that all the other candidates be even worse? Maybe there’s a whole bunch of people full of hate who are setting up the guiding lights for the politicians? 
  Back in time western leaders thought Putin was a liberal politician (like Navalny hype now) >
  
  Imagine the monster who ordered the bombing of a residential building.... >
  
  "Dude, are you really gonna bomb a residential building killing dozens of innocent civilians?"
  "Are you really asking that to the guy who just a couple decades ago killed hundreds of his own Russian civilians bombing multiple apartment buildings?" >
  
  I don't think there's anyone in the world who has such a hard-on for killing Russians as Putin does. Stalin was the same. It seems to be a thing with Russian leaders. >
  
  Tsar Nicholas II was the same. Dude thought of his massive armies the same way I thought of my Warhammer pieces when I was 15.
  As horribly as he and his family died, people hated him quite rightly for the things he did. >
  
  He was a piece of shit.
  His children were innocents though >
  
  Yeah, especially his 13 year old hemophiliac son. =/ >
  
  Why is that such a well known history that he was hemophiliac? Like that’s one of the first things I remember when someone mentions Russian history. >
  
  To expand on what the other commenter said, it was closely associated with why Rasputin was able to make his way into the Tsar's inner circle, but it was also a huge deal historically for other reasons. Because the Tsar was a hereditary monarchic position, it was inherited by the firstborn son of the Romanov family. The Tsar and Tsarina had four daughters before they finally managed to have their son. When he was finally born, he was quickly discovered to have this horrible disease that would likely cut his life extremely short. So a lot of people were aware that if something extraordinary didn't happen, the Romanov line was completely fucked. >
  
  Oh wait is that why some of the British royal family had hemophilia too? The hapsburg inbreeding iirc? Maybe that’s why I remembered it too. >
  
  The whole world should see it.  This is a deliberate blow.  I am in the Kharkiv region, today there were three missile attacks on an energy facility in my town, which is two kilometers from my house.  It's impossible to explain how scary it is.  I can only roughly imagine the horror experienced by the people in this house. >
  
  I'm pretty much sure they did it on purpose. >
  
  I grew up in Dnipro and this is a massive residential neighborhood. It would take you hours and hours to walk around it. It could not have been on accident because where were they aiming otherwise? There are only houses, supermarkets, cinemas and all the rest is residential multi stories buildings. >
  
  Looks to me like the Battle of Britain. Bombing civilians to demoralise them. 
  But as we know from years in the war on terror it only radicalised the people. And in case of Britain it made there fighting spirit stronger! >
  
  It seems to be exactly it. Putin wants the Ukrainian populace to say "This is horrible, just give them what they want, we can't take the abuse anymore."
  But if they give in to Putin, he will just keep grabbing more. I'm pretty sure Ukraine knows this. >
  
  The sad thing is. If there never been nukes in the world then there would be a world war immediately due to ww2 those were the same kind of aggressions as we see now.
  And I percent would advocate for a full scale war but we have nukes and russia has nukes and therefore the "Nobody moves or I shoot" rhetoric from putin shows its effect. 
  Sadly that's why many US Enemies try to get nukes so they aren't getting invaded and to a certain point can do thing like putin does now. >
  
  I think in the coming years pretty much every country is going to have an extremely strong desire to get under a nuclear umbrella. The world has seen what happens when a nuclear power attacks a non nuclear power, and they know that no matter how much the rest of the world might want to help, their options are always going to be limited. >
  
  It looks like full denuclearization is even less likely at this point. A sheathed sword is the only thing that'll stop another sheathed sword, so long as people like Putin are around. >
  
  The scum of the earth >
  
  I don't think anyone cares about the invaders. They made their bed and they can lie in it. They are scum >
  
  There is definitely lots of people defending them even in Reddit >
  
  They are certainly either an ignorant minority or Russian trolls, and we should definitely smoke em out. Russia employs massive propaganda farms and they need to be dismantled >
  
  War crime trials better come after this war >
  
  I dont understand why the world should even wait for the war to end. Do something to stop these terrorists, before they do even more damage. How many more innocent people have to die before Russia is stopped? >
  
  What is a war crime trial going to do? It’s absolutely useless. So what if Putin is found guilty? Or all the other soldiers / generals etc? What’re you going to do to make them go to jail, invade Russia? >
  
  War is awful as is, but to go after civilians over and over is horrendous. Russia will be seen as a terrorist state by an entirely new generation that had never witnessed it first hand before. To make it even worse, it’s not even on large scale missile strikes like this one that could (likely wrongly) be written off as a miss. But no, they go after civilians with small arms fire as well. Especially in the beginning, there were countless reports of civilians being shot in the back and worse. 
  We will not forget. >
  
  You say "we will not forget" but assuming you're not from central Europe it's rather possible that most of the people around you did forget what Russia did as SSSR. (they consider themselves heirs of the regime so it's still applicable even if technically it's not the same state.)
  Poles are a prime example of people who did not forget.
  They did bicker, they did argue about significant but stupid laws, they did press similar things to stop women controlling their bodies as USA did. But once Russia crossed Ukraine borders, they immediately took initiative in EU and did push hard to stop all and every affiliation w Russia they could.
  Same goes for some other countries from the region, but looking at the sentiment globally, the world has mostly forgotten what Russia did. >
  
  It is so strange to see Hungary being kind of russophile? I mean they absolutely hated the SSSR, and because of their background in WW2 they weren't exactly best buddies with the Soviet union in general. I really don't understand how they aren't more like Poland in that regard, considering they are normally best buddies? Maybe someone can help me understand what is going on >
  
  They voted for the wrong guy when he seemed to be OK, and now they don’t understand how they can get rid of him without bloody revolution, because he’s very powerful propagandist and autocrat who counterfeits elections again and again. Pretty Russian situation. >
  
  There is a video just after the attack. People hundreds of people are screaming for help >
  
  Jesus Christ man.
  Can someone help me understand what's the point of bombing civilians from a "my military is seriously trying to win" perspective? I guess Putin has completely lost his marbles but even then... >
  
  Demoralize the civilian population to put pressure on the government to surrender. Hitler tried the same thing, very notably in Britain.
  The reality is, unless the defending country is already losing pretty bad, this just galvanizes the population. >
  
  Galvanizing the population is an acceptable outcome for Russia as well, because Russia doesn't believe the population can do much (despite all evidence to the contrary), and because getting the entire population to be vehemently anti-Russian just makes it easier to justify dehumanizing and targeting them as being anti-Russian "Nazis" who deserve whatever wanton destruction Russia can muster. Thus, wiping out entire towns and apartment blocks, intentionally or not, is totally fine, because Ukraine's all full of brainwashed, Western-backed "Nazis" now. >
  
  No, it’s not. They’re not thinking like that. Russians have been calling Ukrainians Nazis since the beginning. What this is is a misunderstanding of tactical warfare. They fire upon civilians, so civilians across Ukraine will be galvanised and, particularly in occupied areas, be more inclined to join resistance movements and ‘underground railroad’ kind of organisations.
  Russia doesn’t want this. They want citizens fearful. My thinking is, they’re doing this pre-emptively, and for a few reasons:
  
  
  To pressure concessions in a peace deal. Every child dead is a potential trigger point for a “this is enough” kind of decision.
  
  
  To pre-emptively scare the citizens into submission for when they eventually occupy the space.
  
  
  To demoralise soldiers on the battlefield who also have families and may be impacted by their deaths.
  
  
  Plain inhumanity and malice, even frustration towards a more formidable opponent.
  
  
  Russia just doesn’t understand that the element of fearful subservience only applies in the lack of inspiring leadership. Zelenskyy is the beacon of hope for everyone. So every attack just makes Ukraine stronger. So the citizens at large wont submit, and the soldiers will keep fighting. And the war will continue to be won inch by inch, so long as morale is kept high. 
  I think so long as Zelenskyy is alive, there is zero chance of a peace deal, zero chance of any actual takeover, zero chance of anything except a deeply humiliating attrition loss for Russia. Ukraine will win, eventually. >
  
  This is what Putin offers the world: destruction and chaos. >
  
  The world should fight the climate change. But the Russian Mafia Boss wants to destroy the world. No pain is enough pain he should get. >
  
  It kinda reminds me of Andrei Sator in Tenet. He doesn’t want the world to go on after he’s gone. >
  
  Terrorists >
  
  There is no purgatory for war criminals. >
  
  Despicable >
  
  Terrorists >
  
  The fucking brutality of these bastards is horrifying. >
  
  Remember when Russia claimed there was a humanitarian catastrophe in the Donbas and used that as justification for invasion and war? Pepperidge farm remembers >
  
  Pepperidge Farm remembers. Nabisco remembers. Hell, even the company that makes those gluten-free cauliflower chips remembers. Fuck the Kremlin. >
  
  Sometimes I wonder if Russia is just masochistic and wants to be punished, because this action screams: Please give Ukraine tanks so we can get pummeled even more! >
  
  Was just there a few hours ago, still can't process it, a friends mom works in the clinic that is now a bunch of rubble, she's fine and it's her day off luckily >
  
  Ruzzia is a terrorist state. More weapons to Ukraine. >
  
  Stop saying Ruzzia. Put Russia. Keep it searchable for future generations. Make these horrors known forever. >
  
  When you see "Nazi" you know it means Germany >
  
  People actually search for Nazi on Google tho. Nobody is searching for Ruzzia. You are rendering your comments useless. >
  
  It's so obvious it's war crimes, so many war crimes. Just give the Ukrainians everything. >
  
  Battle of Britain didn't break the Londoner's spirits either. >
  
  ATACMS  to Ukraine. >
  
  
  ATACMS 
  
  yikes I had to google that. Looks like a HIMARS on steroids. 190 mile range! >
  
  Yep!
  Russia needs to know that if they fire missiles - Ukraine has the ability to hit the launch site right back. Whether it’s in Ukraine, Belarus or Russia itself. >
  
  Heavy tanks to Ukraine pronto. >
  
  And this is in the festive weekend,  old "New year". >
  
  War crimes.
  If there is a hell, Putin has a special place waiting for him. >
  
  1). Why all putin’s friends and their families are still living in US and Europe, have millions on their bank accounts and have elite private property while you discriminate average russians who just want to escape the regime and block their visas and bank cards ? 2). Why do you still supply police of putin and his regime with new equipment and millions of oil-dollars? 3). Why your governments don’t give enough weapons to Ukraine for making this war as long and exhausting as possible? >
  
  Putin is such a cancerous bitch. >
  
  Just proves that Russia didn't sack Surovikin because the 'strategy of targeting civilians wasn't working', they sacked him because of internal politics. Surovikin was praised by Prighozhin/Kadyrov, representatives of Russia's far-right, which probably made Gerasimov/Shoigu, representatives of the military establishment, who the far-right are at war with, testy. >
  
  Putin should be hung, drawn and quartered. >
  
  *hanged >
  
  I'd settle for either at this point. >
  
  Putin is a terrorist leader. >
  
  Time to officially and fully isolate Russia from the rest of the world.  Full embargo and even a blockade of their ports.  Remove as much as possible their ability to connect to the internet.  Remove them from international banking systems. Seize their foreign assets. >
  
  Please maximum retweet. Help show the world what Russian terrorists are doing to peaceful Ukrainians >
  
  Update update, 5 dead, 27 wounded >
  
  12 dead, more then 100 people taken from the ruble already. >
  
  Fuck Russia and fuck every nation that continues to trade with it.  Russia's biggest trading partners, China and India, deserve to be boycotted for continuing to fund Russia's war crimes. >
  
  Oh yeah, and many international companies that still work in Russia, like Nestle, Auchan, Ikea. I think there's a list somewhere. >
  
  "boycott china India ...but wait don't boycott Europe that's still importing oil in a day more than what India does in a month" >
  
  this kind of war crime / terrorism is all russia is capable of.  it's how they've fought since WWII...  russia is a criminal shithole, and should be completely isolated.  the federation needs to be dismantled, and the people need to be reeducated / deprogrammed.  it's like north korea, but on a larger scale with more alcoholism. >
  
  Russian cowardice. Nothing new there. >
  
  As first gen Russian in Us, and dad and nan almost on trains to camps in WW2, this is deplorable.
  I've been crying for what, 400 days? 
  My Ukrainian friends have parents there. We can't get them out. 
  Putin can die in his own personal hell. Hopefully shortly from now. 
  I hope they preserve his body so tourists can mock him for decades. With a big gay rainbow on his grave. And pussy riot playing gigs in front of it. >
  
  At this point I think it's Russia's goal to surpass Nazi Germany in becoming the most reviled and blatantly evil nation in history. I suppose that would be a "win" of sorts for them. >
  
  They already had Stalin. People just forget him for some reason, while Hitlers name is on the top every time. >
  
  The reason is, there was never a de-stalinification. Sure, Khrushchev freed many from the gulags. But the system was never properly denounced. Many archives are still closed. Some of the nomenklatura boomers are still in charge! >
  
  After little p putin is gone, the rest of Russians for generations will live with this on their backs, hated by the rest of the world and seen as monsters. >
  
  As they should. >
  
  Arm Ukraine with ATACMS now. >
  
  Give Ukraine weapons finally! Russian terror has to stop >
  
  Every time Russia does something like this, people get shocked. Why? 
  are you forgetting that Yeltsin bombed the Chechnya republic in 1995. 
  Then Putin came and he organised Moscow apartment bombings then went ahead and bombed Chechnya to the GROUND. not only did he bomb people of Chechnya but he bombed RUSSIANS as well.
  Putin does not care whether people die in a foreign country or people in Russia die.
  The west saw this and went ahead and acted like he is a rational man.
  They went ahead and made business to someone who has in power from 1999. 
  Do you people realise that if this was never started the west the very European countries would have continued to do business with Putin and taking care of this yachts like everything was normal. 
  They failed to see a monster leaving next to them for the past 20 years because they wanted CHEAP natural gas. Europe is Putin enabler!!! >
  
  The absolute motherfuckers >
  
  War is hell.  Pray that you never have to see it closer than this. Even winning is awful >
  
  Do they ever aim for military structures? I don’t think I’ve came across a “Russia bombs ___ military” anything, yet >
  
  It is not in the media because it is an obvious basic thing that militaries do. I know it happens because I have watched interviews with foreign legion soldiers that came back from Ukraine and stuff like military bases or infrastructure gets bombed all the time when possible. Most of the killing is done by the artillery. Most of the time the job of the soldier is to sit in an area and get bombed all the time and you really do not shoot anyone that much. >
  
  This is a war crime. >
  
  This article most likely shows the people behind these killings. >
  
  We need to hunt these people down after the war and make them face justice. >
  
  How is this not a war crime? >
  
  It absolutely is. But will they be held accountable? Probably not.
