Statement by the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine

One of the videos shows a brutal execution of a man who appears to be a Ukrainian prisoner of war, while the other one shows mutilated bodies of apparent Ukrainian servicepersons. Regrettably this is not an isolated incident. In recent reports the Mission documented a number of serious violations of International humanitarian law, including those committed against prisoners of war. These latest violations must also be properly investigated and the perpetrators must be held accountable.
