Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s Office he says He opened a criminal investigation after the video appeared earlier this week, which showed Russian soldiers who carried out six unarmed Ukrainian prisoners of war.
“According to preliminary data, during an attack on positions Ukrainian troops In the Donjecsk region, the occupiers captured six soldiers of Ukrainian defense forces and then shot them, “the prosecutor’s statement said in a statement on January 23.” The impact of prisoners of war is a serious violation of the Geneva Convention in relation to the treatment of prisoners of war and is classified as a serious international crime.

CBS News failed to check the video independently. Six men seen in the recording did not identify the Ukrainian authorities, but the yellow strips they seemed to be worn were in accordance with those carried by the Ukrainian forces that worked in the region.
The video seems to show that men were shot directly in front of the excavation, which gives the credibility of the claim of the General Prosecutor to be killed after being trapped during the attack.
Before the video stops, one of the Russian soldiers says, “One is mine,” and the seventh soldier is shown on Earth, but his condition is not clear.
Ombudsman of the Ukrainian Government, DMYTRO LUBINETS, said He filed for war crimes with the United Nations and the Red Cross International Committee for the incident shown in the video.
“The Russian army has never been known for decent treatment with prisoners of war and once again shows its helplessness and crime,” Lubinens said in a statement. “The lack of responsibility has turned the crime into the system. We cannot blind the view of it! Ukraine needs justice and responsibility for those who commit crimes and do not meet any norm!”
He alleges against Russian forces as almost three -year invasion of President Vladimir Putin in Ukraine, with his troops achieved small but constant territorial gains in the eastern Ukrainian region of Donbas.
The Russian army on Tuesday claimed that the troops were renewed by the village of Dvorichn, near the northeast city of Harlak. The Russian forces first seized the village shortly after Putin launched a full invasion in February 2022, but the Ukrainian forces took it months later during the illegality.
The war did not show the signs of mitigation despite the fact that President Trump took the post of second term to the United States, after claiming repeatedly that he could end the war within a few days.
Many Ukrainians and their supporters in Europe were taken care of that Mr. Trump could press Ukraine, denying vital US military assistanceIn accepting a negotiating tribute with Russia that would allow Putin to retain a significant part of the territory that occupied its forces.
As she reported to CBS News’ Holly Williams on Tuesday, a recent survey shows a slim majority Ukrainians now support the negotiating interruption of fire With Russia – a great shift from the early days of the war – but the Government and many civilians say that any agreement must include guarantees for the security of Ukraine, such as European peacekeeping forces on the field or NATO membership.
