Citizens of Ukraine who returned home in the order of the exchange of prisoners talk about the humiliation and inhuman conditions of detention in Russian captivity, reports the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Verkhovna Rada Lyudmila Denisova.

"

She said that when captured, the occupiers took Ukrainian men's shoes, filled them with water and forced them to put them on again.. After that, the prisoners were forced to lie face down in the cold for three to four days..

"

According to her, Ukrainians were dressed in the uniform of prisoners, had their hair cut, tortured, forced to learn patriotic Russian songs and perform them for their guards..

"

The authorized representative said that the occupiers decided to exchange seriously ill patients with limbs and toes amputated due to frostbite. Due to the lack of ambulances, they transported seriously wounded Ukrainians for exchange for five hours on cargo railway platforms.. After that, the invaders put the wounded on a stretcher on the highway, where they were taken by Russian soldiers..

" I call on the UN Commission to Investigate Human Rights Violations during the Russian invasion of Ukraine to take into account these violations of the rights of Ukrainian prisoners of war,"
