Yeah it's a vaguely written article about a ruling that was almost 2 weeks old using a clickbait headline.
In the ruling (which is what is linked from the actual court):
The rights violations were due to an inadequate response and failure to protect lives during a riot. Also, while Ukraine's name is on the ruling, the details given in that pdf clearly show it was pro-Russian elements in the government, police, and crowd responsible for the lethal violence and lack of protections during what is essentially a Civil War. IF that isn't enough, the ECHR spells the Capital 'Kyiv', while in the article it is 'Kiev'. Just in case you still have doubts about the bias.
Frankly, a mod posting such biased and antiquated news headlines tells me all I need to know about what this community is about: perpetuating the russian narrative. It's either that or it is being adjudicated by people who do zero critical thinking or bother to read the articles they link.
