Chalym Chuldum-ool’s brigade imprisoned 366 men, women and children in horrific conditions, using them as human shields, while Alexander Evtody is believed to have taken part in the bombing of civilians in Mariupol

Russia is stepping up prosecutions for social media posts, however old, and is openly trying to terrorize Ukrainians by demonstrating that even their bank accounts are under surveillance

Iryna and Oleksandr Levchenko had remained in Melitopol, hoping for its liberation and assuming they were not in danger. They proved tragically wrong

Russia has not provided any information about where the young journalist is being held and why, and is blocking any contact with her

Russia is using torture of Ukrainian prisoners of war in its attempt to rewrite the facts about its invasion of Mariupol and the crimes it committed

Russia had killed at least 35 civilians from the beginning of its mass offensive on Kharkiv to 24 May. The death toll from its missile strikes on shoppers at a DIY hypermarket already stands at 16, with that number likely to rise

Russia is forcing Ukrainians to take Russian citizenship and personally confirm ownership or face losing their homes on occupied territory

Guriy Kornilyev formally rejected Russian citizenship “to not give Putin the chance to claim to be protecting him”. Russia’s revenge is brutal

Updated information has confirmed that the Russians murdered two elderly civilians, including a woman in a wheelchair

Russia is refusing to even admit to its abduction and imprisonment of Oleksandr Babych, Mayor of Hola Prystan, whom the invaders seized in March 2022

The sentence against Vladyslav Plakhotnyk is chilling in its abuse of a flawed Supreme Court ruling to bring surreal ‘terrorism charges’ against a young man serving in his own country’s Armed Forces against an invader

Russia's aggressive methods of 'passportization' at gunpoint leave no grounds for believing these to be empty threats

The International Commission on Missing Persons signed memorandums of cooperation with the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Health.

Even with draconian legislation enabling Russia to imprison people for telling the truth about its crimes, the aggressor state is clearly finding it harder than anticipated to inculcate its rewritten version of 'history'

Oleksiy Kyrychenko is one of five civilians illegally abducted and almost certainly tortured for the ‘confessions’ on which this latest ‘trial’ is likely to be based

Yanina Akulova, Dmytro Sergieiev and Anton Zhukovsky were all abducted from occupied Melitopol, with their videoed 'confessions' obtained long before Russia even admitted to holding them prisoner

Russia aims to execute “terrorists,” but this term is very vague.

Russia is continuing to aggressively foist its citizenship on Ukrainians on occupied territory, with such forced passportization prompting one elderly Ukrainian to an act of great courage

Russia is holding hundreds of Ukrainian medics prisoner, and has even sentenced one to 28 years on fake charges based solely on a ‘confession’ almost certainly extracted through torture

Russia presumably needs more prison space for political prisoners from occupied parts of Ukraine, with almost all non-political prisoners pushed to opt for killing Ukrainians rather than Russian detention
