For Russian prisoners of war in Ukraine, according to the Geneva Convention, detention centres and camps have been set up.

The prisoners of war are kept in the conditions in which officers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces live, eat and are served," Vysotska said.
According to her, Russians in Ukrainian captivity are held on average for 2-3 months. At the same time, international organisations, journalists and law-enforcement agencies can communicate with the captives.
Ukraine shows that we treat even prisoners of war with dignity," the deputy minister added.
