The Independent reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin might face a potential war crime case related to the planned famine in Ukraine. Evidence suggests that the Kremlin orchestrated the famine in Ukraine in advance, intending to seize substantial amounts of Ukrainian grain months before initiating a full-scale invasion.

Global Rights Compliance (GRC), an international human rights law firm, highlights that following the invasion's commencement, the aggressors deliberately targeted regions abundant in grain and essential food production infrastructure.
