This morning, November 27, in the Zaporizhzhia region in the Huliaipole direction, Russian troops shot Ukrainian defenders who had been taken prisoner.
This was reported by the Office of the Prosecutor General.
Under the procedural guidance of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Prosecutor’s Office, a pre-trial investigation has been launched in criminal proceedings for violation of the laws and customs of war, combined with intentional murder (Part 2 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
Such actions are a gross violation of the Geneva Conventions and a serious international crime, the prosecutor’s office said.
Recall that, as reported by the DeepState Telegram monitoring channel, Russians executed Ukrainian defenders west of the village of Zelenyi Hai. According to available information, the soldiers were captured in a forest belt, then lined up, interrogated, and killed.
