This would be dumb if true. Locals could place beacons near Russian troops and create friendly fire incidents or near soft civilian targets to cause war crimes to occur for propaganda purposes.
Putin doesn't need Ukrainian civilians to stage war crimes for him, he manages just fine by himself. Tolls of civilian casualties are skyrocketing since the first few minutes of the invasion. There's also tons of footage of russian rockets and missiles targeting civilian apartment complexes, or even carpet bombing intersections and the like.
Well in a sense, yes. There are uncountable videos of MLRS (Multiple-Launch rocket system) strikes, and by the nature of them, those are basically carpet bombing. While not actual bombs dropped from bombers, these rockets are meant to to destroy a large area of surface, not discriminating between soldiers and civilians, just like carpet bombing. Putin and is commiting war crimes every minute of this unjustified war he is forcing upon Europe. Keep in mind you have to separate the Russian people from Putin and also separate Russian Forces functionaries and High Command from the low ranks that are sent to their death, often just 18-20 years old and basically without any combat training. Truly a tragic war, while not unexpected or suprising, this is shattering the piece and fundamentals of democracy, international law and human rights. Don't let Putin get away with this atrocity, he needs to feel justice in the form of painful death!

You are spreading misinformation, as of yesterday there were 25 dead civilians.

carpet bombing? really?
No. The war has small number of civilian casualties [1], given the other commenters emotional tone I would say he's biased.
