Russian servicemen cover themselves with prisoners of war in combat: video published

Russian servicemen near Robotino cover Ukrainian prisoners of war in combat. The corresponding video was published by Radio Liberty.

It is reported that the publication received a drone video which shows a group of Russian army soldiers leading three captives forward and firing behind their backs.

We managed to verify the video and clearly identify the location where the events took place. However, at the request of the military - we do not indicate the exact location of the events," the report said.

It was possible to establish that the Russian troops of the 234th Airborne Assault Regiment as part of the 76th Airborne Assault Division are operating in this direction.

According to the Verkhovna Rada's human rights commissioner, Dmytro Lubinets, if the video is confirmed, "it will be a direct violation of the Geneva Conventions".
