It became known how many Ukrainian military are in captivity in Russia

This was reported by the Centre for Strategic Communications and Information Security, citing the rnd publication.

Around 3,400 Ukrainian servicemen are now in Russian captivity, another 15,000 are missing.

We do not know what happened to them (the missing). Whether they are also Russian prisoners of war, or they were forcibly removed from Russian-occupied territories, or possibly killed long ago. Such uncertainty is especially hard for relatives," presidential commissioner for ensuring the rights of defenders Alena Verbytska said.

The Russian Federation denies the Red Cross access to camps for captive Ukrainian soldiers and systematically violates the Geneva Convention.
