Over the past five months, the Russian military has killed at least 15 Ukrainians who tried to surrender into captivity. In addition, they shot six military men who had already surrendered - Human Right Watch

HRW verified videos of extrajudicial executions that were previously posted in Telegram channels.

In March, a report published on the official website of the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights said that since December there had been reports of the killing of at least 32 captured or surrendered Ukrainians, but not all of these reports could be confirmed.

Human Rights Watch sent a letter to Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu on April 22 requesting information on this and whether Russian servicemen receive orders to kill surrendering Ukrainian soldiers instead of taking them prisoner. There was no response to the letter.
