Russian soldiers were accused of shooting six Ukrainian prisoners
The editor-in-chief of the portal “Censor.net” Yuriy Butusov published a video in which, according to him, the Russian military shoots six Ukrainian prisoners. Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets called it a “cynical execution,” and the country’s Prosecutor General’s Office announced the start of an investigation into a war crime case.

Lubinets emphasized that the Russian military independently filmed the execution of unarmed prisoners. The military forced the Ukrainian soldiers lying on the ground to get up and walk forward one by one, and then shot them in the back. The video ends when the cameraman points the camera at the seventh Ukrainian Armed Forces employee and someone asks: “And this one?”
According to the Prosecutor General's Office, the video was filmed during the Russian assault on Ukrainian positions in the Donetsk region. Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmitry Lubinets reported the crime to the UN and the International Committee of the Red Cross. “The Russian army has never been known for treating prisoners of war with dignity,” Lubinets said.
