This can still be accounted for cogently in the free will framework, any russian soldier or decision-maker has free will, hence the agression. If God were to intervene to cancel even one person's free will, he would cancel free will altogether for all people, being just by defintiion.

Free will that has no real ramifications is not free will. If God were to intervene every evil act from happening, it's obvious that no one will make any effort to do anything.
There is another thing that should be kept in mind withing the religious framework: that life and all the suffering it entails is a divine test.
