Since then they’ve been subjected to 24/7 shelling from the UA which has caused approximately 14,000 deaths.

Thanks for identifying yourself as a Russian propagandist. That phrase is right off the Russian propaganda talking points, and demonstrably false.

It is true that about 14,000 people have died in the conflict started by the Russian supported and aligned militias in the Donbass. But most of them have been the combatants on both sides, and about half of the 14,000 were Ukrainians fighting against the separatists or the Russian army.

When shelling happens it goes both ways. It usually starts from the Russian side, and then the Ukrainians respond. You can look at the OSCE reports to see the daily tracking of shells and which side they came from.

Of course at this point the Russians invading Ukraine have mercilessly shelled civilians, even their Russian speaking brothers and sisters. Somehow for Russians killing tens of thousands of people equates to "protecting" them.
