Russia passes revenge life sentences against a Hero of Ukraine and three other marine commanders for defending Mariupol

Crimean Tatar political prisoner returned to die in Russian captivity is in critical condition

Russia should never have imprisoned Lenur Khalilov, but its present treatment of a man who is probably dying is especially savage

Russia stages grotesque trial for second 29-year sentence against savagely tortured Ukrainian partisan

Three political prisoners were subjected to this immensely cynical 'trial', based solely on the secret 'testimony' of two prisoners who may well have been as brutally tortured as Hryhory Sinchenko, Volodymyr Makarenko & Dmytro Papenko
