It's a city of several thousand people. It would be pretty difficult to fake this entirely since you could interview hundreds or even thousands of local residents about what happened.
Most likely Ukrainian fake would be to inflate the numbers and make a few dozens bodies look like a few hundred.
What I don't get is that the sattelites say the bodies were laying around for days or even weeks. Like every army would see this at least as a heath risk right? I kinda hope neutral countries can get some investigators there. That would be the most believable source.

It's okay to admit there's not enough information to make a judgement.

Okay but on the other side, and I'm not saying this is what's going on, but if you have an official investigation you need to decide who is investigating, get investigators in to an active war zone, wait for reports to be prepared, and on and on and on and by that time who knows what evidence will even be intact. It could be a good faith effort to find the truth, or it could be an effort to tie things up in red tape for a few years.

Probably the Dutch again :data-laughing:
The finest of Finns, just like in Kosovo.
Do you want to be out digging mass graves while drones are taking pot shots at you and farmers in tractors are riding around throwing molotovs?
At some point you can’t just drag them any more and that road appears to have been a target for ordinance, who’s gonna risk it to bury some 10 civvies when the city is full of them anyways? Apparently neither the locals nor the occupying force. I don’t see a major weirdness here.
Depends on how many bodies, where the bodies where, and what the military units locally were up to.
On another note... If the video that was on some NYTimes piece posted on r/GenZedong is to be believed. Those are some really well preserved bodies for being on the street for three weeks.
nah, that's below freezing temps for you, but of course this begs the question, was it indeed done in one instance, and the answer is probably not, so a bit pointless to call massacre checks notes 10 deaths a day
Below freezing temps would keep bloat at bay and the clothes would help to keep the liquid purification that might leak out of butts and mouths mostly contained, but no dogs or crows chewing on faces, hands, eyes? On any of the bodies? For three weeks? In an urban area where things like dogs and crows are typically found?
Getting harder and harder think the bodies weren't staged.
animals usually don't stay close to live fire
There wasn't three weeks of constant gunfire over those bodies.
There isn't a need to fake much. A single street with a handful of dead bodies, then say actually it's like this everywhere and it was a massacre. Edit: as in a street that already had dead people on it for any war-related reason.
It can simply be an exaggeration or false narrative about real things. Much easier to pull off.
