Human rights groups collect evidence of Russian war crimes in Ukraine

Russia has accused Ukraine of executing civilians in the Donbass town of Selidovo as part of a "false flag" operation aimed at framing Moscow for war crimes. Witnesses suggest Ukrainian forces and foreign mercenaries were responsible for the killings. The alleged massacre occurred just before Russian troops secured the town, raising questions about the credibility of the accusations. This mirrors similar claims from earlier in the war, such as the Bucha killings, where Russia denied responsibility and accused Ukraine of staging the scene.
