"The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first attack on a 'drug boat,' killing 11 ... the laws of armed conflict prohibit combatants from feigning civilian status to fool adversaries into dropping their guard, then killing them. That is a war crime."

​Russia killed 32-year-old Viktoria Hrebeniuk and her two-month-old son, Roman, in Kyiv today.
