Says the invaders booby trapping children’s toys.
Source on that? Serious question
All good.

No mention of toys here, but it's also indicative of the inhumanity:

Russia is poisoning water supplies to hurt innocent civilians while Ukraine is removing combatants from combat. Only argument needed
And blowing up dams.
I don't think it is though. When Israel did this it was widely seen as a horrific war crime. Russia have committed uncountable crimes in this war, but Ukraine generally haven't and should endeavour to remain away from the line where it can.
There's a difference. Hezbollah absolutely is supporting Hamas who committed a terrorist act by attacking the music festival to get the world to watch, but Israel also did a "to whom it may concern" terrorist attack on innocents and military. On top of that, Israel has been foaming at the mouth to get the West Bank ever since they were handed Israel by the world leaders due to sympathy. Meanwhile, those same world leaders supported pushing Muslims out of Israel to Gaza and have been silent ever since. And that silence has allowed Israeli leaders to oppress Palestinians, uproot them from their homes, and violently squash protests. Now, thanks to Hamas, Israel has found their excuse to further push Muslims out of that region of the Med and even kill them for the claim of "there were a couple of terrorists there..." and is now going at Lebanon because they want their section of "holy land" back. Israel and Muslim conflict is completely different because this has been a burning desire since Muslims claimed Israel and held it. It's deep seeded hate. Plain and simple. And the war right now is what is made from hate.
And now Iran (which as a US veteran, I've never really been a fan of Iran due to their very strict border policies regardless of circumstance) is getting involved because their allies are getting bombed because they disapprove of Israel bombing Lebanon and more civilians for just this fractional section of land. Israel is the villian in this scenario
Better switch to beepers ....
Russians have stolen washing machines from civilians' homes, and now radios? As much as they deserve it, they should really work on manufacturing some basic electronics themselves. /s
I'd like to know what the removed comments said although I highly suspect that they were along the lines of saying something like this is a war crime blah blah blah. Yes I have seen Ukraine commit a few war crimes (mercy killings and such) but it pales in comparison to what the Armed forces of Russia have done. I'm too lazy to find a list but between beheadings, shooting down prisoners, torturing and shooting civilians, Mass graves....
Ukraine is fighting with it's hands tied while Russia is free to engage in any way it wants. Is this a "dirty" tactic? Yes but it's necessary against such an enemy.
If only. Israel pulled a great one with the exploding military equipment.
I’m not fighting for my life or my country, so it’s hard to really argue, but I don’t love this. Imitating Israel isn’t a great look right now.
(If it’s true at all, of course)
Abandoning booby-trapped radios into an active war zone for uniformed enemy soldiers to pick up is not the same as infiltrating the supply chain to sell booby-trapped devices to "I hope these end up in the hands of people I don't like, but if civilians end up with them, oh well."
