Another six cases of extrajudicial executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war by russian occupiers have been confirmed in a new report of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.

A group of Ukrainian prisoners of war in the Donetsk region were forced to transport ammunition through a minefield for three months. One POW was killed after stepping on a mine, another was shot for refusing to obey orders. Five others were seriously injured.

The report mentions the execution of two prisoners of war in March 2022 in the village of Sloboda, Chernihiv region.

It also confirms the authenticity of two of the most widely circulated videos of executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war — one in which the head of a Ukrainian prisoner of war is severed with a knife, the other of the execution of Hero of Ukraine Oleksander Matsievskyi.
