• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea

Russia steps up harassment of Crimean Tatar human rights activists and lawyers before 80th anniversary of 1944 Deportation

• Events

Ukrainian political prisoner moved to harshest Russian prison for ‘discrediting’ Russian army

• War crimes

Russia sentences 18-year-old Ukrainian POW to 18 years for defending his country

• Human Rights Abuses in Russian-occupied Crimea   • Events

Massive spike in ‘List of Terrorists and Extremists’ as Russia persecutes critics of its war against Ukraine and LGBT

Russia’s failure to heed warnings about the recent Crocus City Hall terrorist attack was probably because its enforcement bodies were far too busy fabricating cases against Ukrainians or those opposing Russia’s war of aggression

• Events

Revenge imprisonment in Russia extended of young Crimean Tatar woman seized for trying to visit her gravely ill father

It is 18 months since the Russians took Leniye Umerova prisoner, with the accusation of mystery ‘spying’ only emerging after a string of wildly implausible other charges

• Events

Russia sentences Ukrainian to 25 years for ‘railway sabotage commissioned by Ukraine, Poland and Latvia’

The charges against 46-year-old Serhiy Karmazin are based solely on a videoed ‘confession’ while Russia’s FSB actively prevented him from seeing an independent lawyer

'There was a cemetery here' — a resident of the village of Zahaltsi
