Kyiv's human rights ombudsman has written to the UN, after reports that Russia executed Ukrainian PoWs.

Ukraine’s human rights ombudsman has denounced the alleged execution of nine captured Ukrainian troops by Russian forces in the Kursk border region.

Dmytro Lubinets said he had written to the United Nations and the Red Cross about the allegations, accusing Moscow of breaching “all the rules and customs of war”.

The intervention follows reporting by Ukrainian battlefield analysis site DeepState, which published drone footage purporting to show the dead troops who it said were drone operators. Officials in Russia have yet to comment on the allegations.

    I did see a video on [war video sub here] where they lined up (iirc) 16 POWs and gunned them down recorded by a drone. I’ll look for it but might forget to come back to edit the comment.

    EDIT: turns out I saw it on reddit. NSFW, but taken from a low quality drone video. Still, you’ve been warned. video for the brave

    There’s actually a lot more results for execution on that sub. Like 5 feet away. Thats enough internet for today.
