Rashists executed a Ukrainian prisoner of war with a sword

He was unarmed, and his hands were bound with tape, writes the Ukrainian Ombudsman: “The level of barbarism and bloodthirstiness is impossible to comprehend. Such actions are a gross violation of the Geneva Convention on the Treatment of Prisoners of War! How much longer will the world watch as Russia openly demonstrates its disregard for all norms and laws?”

In connection with this, Dmytro Lubinets sent letters to international organizations, the ICRC, and the UN, urging them to record yet another violation of human rights by the Russian Federation.

He emphasized that such public executions are aimed at demoralizing Ukrainian society.

An investigation has been launched into the execution of the Ukrainian serviceman by representatives of the Russian armed forces.

The Donetsk Regional Prosecutor’s Office has initiated a pre-trial investigation into a criminal case concerning the violation of the laws and customs of war, combined with premeditated murder.

It is likely that Russians killed the unarmed Ukrainian defender in the town of Novohrodivka, adds the Office of the Prosecutor General: “In the released photos, the occupiers are seen plunging a sword into the body of a serviceman from the Ukrainian Defense Forces. The image shows that the killed serviceman had no equipment, and there was adhesive tape on one of his hands.”
