Cracks are widening, Russia trying to silence impact as more families come forward.

Efremenko said that she was in a Telegram chat with more than 80 family members of those who were missing. Many have been told not to speak to the press or go public. “They are trying to buy my silence, but it won’t happen,” she said. “I will look for my son until the end.

“I promised the authorities that I wouldn’t talk publicly about my son, but already a month has passed and people are forgetting about Moskva. People are moving on, but we still have so many unanswered questions: why the hell were conscripts there? Why were they fighting? No one has been able to tell me this.”

From the source:

A month after the sinking of the Moskva, the Russian government has only confirmed the death of one crew member and said another 27 were missing.

But the families of crew members say that the death toll could be as high as 200, and many have not received any confirmation about what happened to their husbands, brothers, and sons.

Which tallies with this month old OSINT assessment:

Standard treatment according to the rules of war every soldier has to abide by or be open to prosecution as a war criminal. Nothing unusual:
  • Rules of War

    In situations of armed conflict I will abide by the rules of international humanitarian law as contained in the Geneva Conventions:

    I will fight only enemy combatants and attack only military objectives.

    I will employ methods of attack to achieve the military objective with the least amount of harm to civilian life and property.

    I will not attack or harm enemy personnel who surrender. I will disarm them and treat them as prisoners of war.

    I will not kill, torture or abuse prisoners of war.

    I will not alter weapons or ammunition for the deliberate purpose of increasing suffering.

    I will collect and care for the wounded, shipwrecked and sick, whether friend or foe.

    I will treat all civilians humanely.

    I will not tolerate or engage in rape or looting.

    I will respect all cultural objects and places of worship.

    I will respect all persons and objects bearing the Red Cross, Red Crescent and other recognised symbols of humanitarian agencies.

    I understand that disobeying these rules is a crime. It dishonours military personnel and their country, and makes them liable to punishment as war criminals. I will therefore report any violation of the rules to my superiors
