63% of Russians view bloody dictator and mass murderer Stalin positively. In Ukraine only 4%

American Volunteer at Bucha Morgue

Patrick Loveless came to Bucha immediately after its release: he helped to sort the corpses in the Bucha morgue and saw and felt the consequences of what the Russians did. What he saw shocked him so much that he could not forget about it.

• War crimes

Russia passes grotesque sentences against Azov Regiment POWs taken prisoner for defending Ukraine

The ‘sentences’ against Pavlo Artemenko and Anton Romaniuk are, presumably, to be used as ‘proof’ to back Russian attempts to turn reality upside down and blame Ukraine for the crimes its armed forces have been committing on Ukrainian territory

• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea

‘When a rocket hit our shelter, a hot water pipe there was damaged. My friend was doused with boiling water, all his clothes just stuck to him’

Denys Nozhaiskyi has relatives in Mariupol. He was in Kyiv when the war began, but fate brought him later to Bucha during the days of the heaviest shelling. The man says that now he has only one wish: to go to the war and take revenge on the enemy.

Medical torture continues as Ukrainian journalist and human rights activist deported to Russian prison

It is possibly deliberate policy that Russia's criminal charges against civic journalist Iryna Danilovych were so evidently fabricated, as a lesson to others of what they too can expect in revenge for civic courage and speaking the truth

• Events

Russians take parody 'My Denunciation' app seriously and report neighbours for opposing war against Ukraine or Putin

‘For two weeks I slept on damp earth’, — a resident of the village of Zalissia

Iryna Kovalenko celebrated her golden wedding and was involved in peaceful activities usually done by villagers. She never thought that the so-called “brothers” would come to kill and destroy houses.
