Oh, you mean clashes between rioters during the overthrow of Yanukovych, a brutal autocrat whom Putin was paying to crush pro-EU, pro-independence protests? Or how about how Russia responded by invading Crimea? But most importantly, how does what happened in a street riot in 2014 justify Putin invading in 2023?

Trick question, it doesn't, you're a cheerleader and an apologist who’s desperately trying to justify an unjustifiable invasion and a shit load of war crimes. Speaking of which, those 20,000 shells are the number one killer of civilians, which is precisely the intent since Russian forces are incompetently led and horribly coordinated. But instead of acknowledging that, you use it repeatedly as “evidence” that Russia is “winning.”
