• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea

Russia’s attack on Crimean Solidarity extends repression to lawyers defending political prisoners

The list of new targets, the vast majority of whom are Crimean Tatars, is huge, and includes human rights defenders, journalists and the fathers, wives or other close family members of political prisoners

Ukrainian sentenced to 12 years for ‘endangering Russian security’ through donation to Ukraine’s defenders

Victor Nikitenko was 'accused' by the aggressor state which invaded Ukraine of seeking to help the men and women in defending his country

War crimes probe initiated after Russians interrogate, then execute Ukrainian POW

This is the latest of many killings of Ukrainian prisoners of war, with evidence mounting that Russian commanders encourage subordinates to "not take prisoners"

• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea

Chersonese in Russian-occupied Crimea added to UNESCO List of World Heritage in Danger

It is, tragically, not only Tauric Chersonese which Russia is destroying in its attempt to commandeer and rewrite history. Its destruction of the vital Crimean Tatar Khans Palace in Bakhchysarai has been no less barbaric

Two young Ukrainians sentenced to 15 & 20 years for fictitious ‘international terrorism’ near Russian-occupied Melitopol

Russian attempts to present railway partisans as ‘international terrorists’ would under any circumstances be absurd. They become even more surreal given the alleged reason why the sabotage didn’t work

• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea

Russia sentences 59-year-old Maryna Kovalenko whose son is defending Ukraine to 13 years for 'treason'

Not only is it unclear what the information is that the ex-Luhansk school head is supposed to have passed to Ukraine's SBU or why they were interested, but when she could have done so before she was abducted

A civilian prisoner from Mariupol is in critical condition

He broke into Mariupol in March 2022 to save his family. The family managed to leave, but he did not. Mariupol boxing coach Dmytro Shurda has been in captivity for more than five years — despite serious diagnoses: tuberculosis, HIV, two heart attacks and a stroke.

• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea

Vital Crimean Solidarity human rights movement forced to terminate activities after Russia labels it a ‘foreign agent’

Russia will win if, by escalating terror against Crimean Solidarity and all those on occupied territory whom it can abduct, torture, imprison or kill, the world goes silence on its repression. It will continue to fail if we add our solidarity

Mass ‘treason / spying trials’ and huge sentences for supporting Ukraine under Russian occupation

Neither age, nor state of health make any difference for Russia’s conveyor-belt ‘trials’ on ‘treason’ or ‘spying’ charges on occupied territory

Melitopol mother of three sentenced to 18 years because of successful Ukrainian strike against Russian invaders

Had Russia genuinely had evidence to back their charges against Oksana Ptakhina, they would not need to have held her incommunicado for three years and without charges for almost that long

Russia stages a ‘dance performance’ with sickening lies about its downing of Malaysian airliner MH17

The deliberate blurring of undeniable facts is no reason to ignore the danger of such manipulative lies, especially when these are rehashed over and over again

Crimean political prisoner Bohdan Ziza transferred to Buryatia

The illegally imprisoned Crimean artist Bohdan Ziza was transferred to Ulan-Ude, thousands of kilometers from his home, which is a gross violation of international law.
