MOSCOW: Russia will bring everyone responsible for the crimes of the Kiev regime to justice, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
Commenting on the report of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the spokesman said: "All war crimes [committed] by the Kiev regime are thoroughly documented." According to him, the report of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights comes as no surprise to the Russian side.
"We were well aware of these crimes. And, of course, we will make sure that those behind these crimes are duly punished," Peskov pointed out.
Earlier, the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights published a report about Russian prisoners of war being tortured in Ukraine. Human rights activists met with 44 Russian prisoners of war held in detention facilities in the Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkov, Lvov, Nikolayev, Sumy, Vinnitsa and Zaporozhye Regions from December 1, 2023 to February 29, 2024. Prisoners "provided credible accounts of torture or ill-treatment in points of transit after their immediate evacuation from the battlefield," the report said. In addition, the report stated that at least 25 Russian servicemen had been executed away from the battlefield in 2022 and 2023. These executions were carried out without a fair trial or proper investigation.
