[Korrespondent] The enemy committed another war crime in the Volnovakha district
Russian troops carried out an assault on the positions of the 141st Separate Brigade east of point 160.9. The soldiers surrendered, their hands were tied, they were taken out in front of the position and shot in the back of the head.
The Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets reported another war crime by Russia - the probable execution of three Ukrainian prisoners of war near the village of Neskuchnoye in the Volnovakha district of Donetsk Oblast. The ombudsman reported this on Telegram on Monday, January 6.
"We are once again witnessing atrocities that demonstrate the true face of the aggressor state. On January 3, Russian occupiers committed a terrible crime - they probably shot three Ukrainian prisoners of war," Lubinets noted.
According to DeepState, the Russians tied their hands and shot them in the back of the head.
"On January 3, the enemy carried out an assault on the positions of the 141st separate brigade east of point 160.9. The fighters surrendered, their hands were tied, they were taken out in front of the position and shot in the back of the head... Unfortunately, the UN baboons are trying to show that both sides are bad, ignoring the fact that the murders and abuse of Ukrainian prisoners of war are systematic and supported by the military-political leadership of Muscovy," the analysts added.
The Ombudsman stressed that despite the fact that, according to the Geneva Conventions, prisoners of war are under special protection and no country has the right to torture them, abuse them or take their lives, Russia demonstrates disregard for international norms.
The Commissioner once again immediately contacted the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the United Nations, indicating that these organizations should condemn this crime and put pressure on the Russian side to stop such acts.
"Ukraine maintains its obligation to respect humanitarian law even during war, but we will not allow Russia to turn the world into a lawless territory. The guilty must be punished!" Lubinets said.
Let us recall that the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets reported that the Russians shot five Ukrainian soldiers who had surrendered.
Let us add that in November it was reported that law enforcement officers were investigating 49 criminal cases on the facts of the murder of 124 prisoners of war on the battlefield. However, after this, new facts of the execution of Ukrainian fighters were discovered.
