Your definition isn’t wrong. That’s also why what Russia is doing isn’t genocide.
That things have been done, or as you’re saying MAY be done may apply to aspects of what is in actuality a horribly misguided war, does not mean it satisfies the criteria for fenocide.
Like. You understand that when you bold things that the stuff that you did not bold is still there right?
The war is horribly misguided, evil, and appalling but it is a war. War crimes have certainly been committed but not on the scale necessary to classify it as genocide, nor with the demonstrable intent to eliminate the Ukrainian people entirely.
Your cherry picking of the definition would mean that all war is genocide. Which, if you believe that, fine, but don’t be intellectually dishonest about it.

You might have missed the bit where genocide is any of the five things? It says it right there.
It doesn’t matter. It shouldn’t be happening and we can’t stop it by bickering.
