A series of reports and tweets have highlighted allegations of torture and executions involving Ukrainian and Russian prisoners of war (POWs) amidst the ongoing conflict. The United Nations Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine (HRMMU) released a report indicating a surge in credible allegations of torture and executions of captured Ukrainian POWs by Russian forces. According to the report, at least 32 Ukrainian POWs were executed in Russian captivity between December 1, 2023, and February 29, 2024. Additionally, over 10,000 Ukrainian civilians are currently detained by Russia, with 5,600 facing torture. Kyiv's prosecutor general has noted that more than half of these detainees have been tortured, and 164 Russian torture chambers were discovered in freed areas. The UN report also sheds light on the torture of Russian soldiers and civilians by Ukrainians, with allegations of torture including rape, threats of rape, castration, beatings, and electric shocks. The report has sparked discussions on the treatment of POWs by both sides and the international community's response to these human rights violations.
