#the Geneva Conventions

[watermelon-project-archive]

Israel and the IDF are attacking and murdering Civilians. There is no other way to put this or even try to defend this. These are civilians. Some Elderly, some children and babies, some brothers or sisters or distant relatives, some teachers or doctors or regular people who you might have seen working at a store or walking down the street. Not Hamas members. Not terrorists. This is blatant disregard and trampling of the forth Geneva Convention and a War Crime. I don’t care about your stance on this because at this point you are either anti or pro Genocide. It Has been a year and nine days since this Genocide against the Palestinians began. A year and nine days of constant starvation, abuse, and violence against civilians. Israel has absolutely no right or actual reason to be bombing civilians and makeshift tent Hospitals (since Israel has bombed and sieged all the other Hospitals in Gaza). There is no reason or way to justify and defend this slaughter and massacre of innocent civilians trying to get help at a makeshift medical facility.

FREE PALESTINE AND STOP THIS GENOCIDE!

Putin's destruction of the Kakhovska dam in Ukraine adds to the climate emergency. Too much coverage of it ignores the environmental aspects of this act of desperation.

Overall, Russia's invasion of Ukraine is not just a genocidal act of aggression by an imperialist power headed by an unbalanced dictator. The invasion is an ongoing act of environmental war against Planet Earth.

The destruction of the Kakhovska dam has caused massive damage, flooding homes and habitats, killing animals, plants and insects en masse. It has contaminated water, washed away landmines and other explosive weapons, and posed a new threat to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. So far, evidence points strongly in favour of an explosion. The flooding has also impacted protected areas that are part of the transnational Emerald Network, including several national nature parks: Velykyi Luh (which remains illegally occupied by Russia), Kam’ianska Sich and Nyzhniodniprovskyi. This will severely damage biodiversity in Ukraine and contribute to the sixth mass extinction of species globally.

Ecocide is not yet an established part of international law. But it is part of Ukrainian law.

The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court does not list ecocide as an international crime, but it is part of Ukraine’s criminal code – and Ukraine can set an international precedent by holding Russia accountable for environmental harm.

We need to speak out more about the environmental calamity of Putin's invasion.

Environmental organisations globally must take urgent action in support of Ukraine and against Russian colonial violence. It is not enough to just lobby against fossil fuel extraction; we must recognise that the end of Russian imperialism is key to the struggle for climate justice. Ukrainian environmental activists have spoken about the increase in CO2 emissions caused by the Russian invasion. If climate emergency initiatives only remember Ukraine in relation to the global food crisis and crop shortages (the destruction of the Kakhovska dam has further damaged the country’s agricultural sector) or the impact the war has had on the global fossil fuel economy, but remain silent and inactive when Ukrainians are killed by flooding and shelling, they are complicit in Russia’s invasion.

While there's not yet a specific international law on ecocide, there are currently some aspects of the law which could hold Putin and his henchmen accountable for several acts which have affected the environment.

Here is Article 56 (Sections 1 & 2) of Protocol I of 1977 to the Geneva Conventions 1949.

Clearly the destruction of the dam at Kakhovka is covered. So is the vandalism, theft, and destruction at the site of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Though it's likely that some of the Russian occupiers who camped out at Chernobyl last year may have already died of radiation sickness. Yes, Moscow has had a hand in Europe's two worst environmental disasters of the past 40 years.

Although the culprits may currently be inaccessible, there's plenty of evidence to launch investigations prior to prosecution. Putin and his accomplices must never again be able to live normal lives.
