Episode Details

Ukrainian soldiers and civilians allege systematic torture by Russian forces, with one captive soldier describing beatings, electric shocks, and sexual violence endured over 1,000 days — including deaths of two comrades. Ukrainian officials brought these claims to the UN Security Council, while Russia denies them, accusing Ukraine of disinformation. The UN Human Rights Office confirms widespread torture of Ukrainian POWs, with 95% reporting abuse and over half experiencing sexual violence — far exceeding documented cases against Russian detainees. Over 300 detention sites are known, and though more than 9,000 Ukrainians have been returned through exchanges, thousands remain missing or unaccounted for.
