Just to generally comment on this, cluster munitions are banned by quite a lot of countries.

Neither Ukraine or Russia are on that list, and a couple of countries that do have a possible defensive war against Russia in mind withdrew from that treaty. That and Ottawa treaty (banning AP victim-triggered landmines)
Yeah, and I'm pretty sure both sides have been using them during the war.
