Amnesty Apologizes for Ukraine Human Shields Report

by Chris Black

Wait. They’re apologizing for issuing a report saying the Ukraine is using human shields, but not retracting the report?

RT:

Human rights group Amnesty International has issued an apology for the consternation triggered by its recent report, which, among other things, accused the Ukrainian armed forces of violating “international humanitarian law and endanger[ing] civilians.” The organization has, however, refused to disavow its findings.

In an e-mail sent to Reuters on Sunday, Amnesty said that it “deeply regrets the distress and anger that our press release on the Ukrainian military’s fighting tactics has caused,” as cited by Reuters.

That’s a pretty weird statement.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anything like this in my life.

Russians are also incriminated in the report. 

This has become a political issue instead of objective reporting on war crimes.
