Ninety percent of Ukrainian prisoners of war are subjected to torture. So far, 13 places have been identified in the Russian Federation where Ukrainian prisoners are held, as well as 120 in the occupied territories, according to Ukraine's Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin in an interview with Deutsche Welle.

"Ninety percent of Ukrainian prisoners of war are subjected to physical and moral torture, as evidenced by the screening of those who returned from Russian captivity. The first so-called screening, an informal conversation with prisoners of war who are now returning, shows that up to 90 percent of our people suffer from various types of torture, inhumane treatment, including physical, sexual, and mental violence. Russia has created a system built on torture and inhumane treatment on its territory and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine."

In turn, Deputy Head of the Department for Combating War Crimes Committed in the Conditions of Armed Conflict of the Prosecutor General's Office, Taras Semkiv, said:

"To date, Ukrainian law enforcement officers have interviewed more than 2,200 people out of 3,200 former prisoners about the circumstances of their stay in Russian captivity."
