The theory of evil in the terminological philosophical interpretation at the modern stage is not new. However, the current tragic and threatening events for Ukraine and the entire civilized world require an essential specification of the hitherto unseen anti-human content manifestations of cruelty and evil, which are carried by the latest maddened enemies from the Russian Federation. The characteristic of the criminal force of the manifestation of evil acquires a modernized, different description of it, both for legal assessments of the consequences in the expected legal proceedings, and for the prevention of catastrophic consequences of the thoughtless intentions of the world's main terrorist. Attention is drawn to hybrid challenges before and during war. The hypocritical propaganda of manipulative sows is a weapon of evil, which has acquired a large-scale planetary disaster, the purpose of which is to sow fear, chaos, despair and insecurity.
The considered theories of evil range from «solid» to «permanent» and «fluid», which have different roots in enemy propaganda. The consequences of imperial evil, which are a gross violation of the norms of humanitarian law, are tragic for Ukraine.
