Russia who surrendered. This was reported by the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets.
Another war crime probably occurred on February 24, 2024 in the Bakhmut district. The video shows that the Ukrainian soldiers are surrendering: their hands were raised up, they showed that they were unarmed and did not pose a threat. The Russians were supposed to take them prisoner, but instead they mercilessly shot them. These are SOU military personnel.
“Such an execution is a war crime! So far, we also know from which military unit of the Russian army the soldiers who mercilessly executed the Ukrainians,” Lubinets emphasized.

The Ombudsman noted that this case must be recorded as another violation by Russia of international humanitarian law. He will also appeal with official letters to the UN and ICRC so that the organizations record and publicly acknowledge that the Russian military is killing Ukrainian prisoners.
“For the Russian army, the Geneva Conventions, rules and customs of war mean nothing. They act according to their own. unspoken “conventions”, “rules” and “customs” – cruelty, meanness, baseness. Such murders of prisoners of war are not isolated cases. There must be punishment for them! “, added the Commissioner for Human Rights.
