It’s way, way more widespread in this war. Also note the distinct lack of torture being committed by the Ukrainians of the captured Russians.
The genocidal behavior is common in other wars, unfortunately, but the high percentage of documented rape and torture of civilians, including elderly and children, is extremely unusual.
Do you have data to back that up? I can image that the Russians deliberately use rape and torture as a kind of weapon to demoralize Ukrainians, though.
The fact that Ukrainians don’t seem to rape captured Russians comes down (I assume) to two things:
Ukraine needs NATO support and it would be a really bad look for them if they raped their prisoners
Most soldiers are (straight) men and I think there are a lot more opportunities for the invading Russians to rape than there are for Ukrainians
You literally just made a “both sides” argument out of thin air in defense of the side doing the mass rape. Justify that however you want to yourself. It has a very clear message.

Yes defend the mass rape and torture, because the Ukrainians have reasons not to rape and torture they’re just as bad for not doing it somehow.
