Most of the villages and cities along the front at the beginning of the war. Kharkov, Kherson, Mariupol, and hundreds of smaller cities and villages. That's not to mention the regular indiscriminate bombings of Ukrainian cities far from the front or the butchering of entire villages (like Bucha). The only reason we know about some of the worst atrocities is because Ukraine took the territory back. Well, Russia still controls a vast majority of the territory it took early on.
And let's not forget the kidnapping of tens of thousands of Ukrainian children (which Russia openly admits to).
Lastly, the only reason Russia hasn't killed more is because of Ukraine fighting back (and missile defense systems). That and the intended purge of Kyiv suggests we'd be talking about at least a million dead if Russia had its way.
