Human rights investigators say that Putin's invasion is indeed carrying out genocide in Ukraine.

Putin is talking about calling the Ukrainian defenders of Mariupol "Mazis" and putting them on trial for "war crimes".

They could not have committed much in the way of war crimes while defending Mariupol, so I expect these accusations would be fabricated and the Putin forces would torture them into false confessions.

Putin's forces are systematically stealing art from Ukrainian museums to present Ukrainian artists as "Russian".

They are also stealing ancient Scythian art. That was neither Ukrainian nor Russian -- it was made by a basically people with a very different culture. The Scythians lived in a region nowadays split between Ukraine, Russia, and some neighboring countries. Both Ukraine and Russia can validly say that the Scythians were part of their prehistory. However, that's no justification for Putin to steal Scythian relics from museums.

Bogus Johnson has changed the ministerial code so that it doesn't say he is obliged to resign.

The Putin forces are advancing slowly but unceasingly around Sievierodonetsk.

I hope the Ukrainian army can get its troops out and avoid losing them.
