Russia has launched a probe after graphic video emerged online, purporting to show the torture of prisoners of war at the hands of Ukrainian servicemen.

“The video circulating online shows captured soldiers being shot in the legs without medical assistance,” the country’s Investigative Committee said in a statement on Sunday.

The head of the body, Alexander Bastrykin, has ordered “investigators to establish all the circumstances of the incident, collect and record evidence and identify all the persons involved in it to subsequently bring them to justice.” While it was not immediately clear where or when the disturbing videos were shot, some reports indicate the incident unfolded at a military compound located in the eastern Ukrainian region of Kharkov, which is used by “nationalist” units, the committee added.


Multiple disturbing clips apparently filmed at the same unknown facility, emerged online over the weekend. The videos are so extremely graphic that RT is unable to share them.

The footage shows multiple people, apparently Russian prisoners of war, lying on the ground. All of the servicemen appear to be heavily beaten and have leg wounds.

The injured soldiers are interrogated by armed men, many of whom are wearing blue armbands commonly used by Ukrainian units. Some of the wounded personnel apparently died during the interrogation. Footage also shows three other prisoners ordered out of a van and shotin their legs at a point-blank range.

I do believe that's contrary to the Geneva Conventions.
 
I wonder if Putin looks in the Mirror and asks himself: "Am I the Stupidest Man in the World?".

Unlikely, unless he were to somehow see a projection of your face in said mirror.

Putting aside your usual personal insults, Putin has managed to do just the OPPOSITE of what his intentions are. To unify the Russian-speakers.
As Putin looks at bombed out Ukrainian Cities and Villages, devoid of Life, he must realize he has Committed a Huge Blunder.

Westernmost Ukraine, including Lviv, wasn't IN the Soviet Union in the 1930s, it was in Poland. The Holodomor was further east.

So you say.

Holodomor: man-made famine that convulsed the Soviet republic of Ukraine from 1932 to 1933, peaking in the late spring of 1933. It was part of a broader Soviet famine (1931–34) that also caused mass starvation in the grain-growing regions of Soviet Russia and Kazakhstan. The Ukrainian famine, however, was made deadlier by a series of political decrees and decisions that were aimed mostly or only at Ukraine. In acknowledgement of its scale, the famine of 1932–33 is often called the Holodomor, a term derived from the Ukrainian words for hunger (holod) and extermination (mor).

Indeed I do. Westernmost Ukraine was not in the Soviet Union in the 1930s and did not suffer the Holodomor.

The one you keep posting from Wikipedia showing peasants starving in Kharkiv.

The Holodomor affected SOVIET Ukraine and southern Russia. It was at least partly man-made. The harvest wasn't good, but it wasn't disastrous until the Bolsheviks started systematically seizing food from collective farms. As a result, several million people died of starvation in the early 1930s.

Is that so? Then it couldn't have been Ukraine, could it?
