The ombudswoman spoke about another violation of the Geneva Convention by the Russian occupiers.
Russians torture and bully Ukrainian prisoners, as well as force them to sign documents that they are treated well. Ombudswoman Lyudmila Denisova spoke about this on her Facebook page.
Among those rescued are severely wounded, with sepsis, amputated limbs. During the capture, the racists took away the boots of Ukrainian men, filled them with water and put them on again. After that, the prisoners were forced to lie face down on the ground in the cold for three or four days. Ukrainians were dressed in the form of prisoners, had their hair cut, tortured, forced to learn patriotic Russian songs and perform them for their supervisors, “Denisova said.
The Ukrainian ombudswoman stressed that virtually no medical care was provided to the prisoners. According to her, the Russian side agreed to exchange only seriously ill people with limbs and toes amputated due to frostbite.
Denisova reiterated that Russia continues to violate the Geneva Convention on protection of civilians during the 1949 war, which strictly prohibits unjustified detention of civilian hostages.
