🤬ISW: russians are systematically executing prisoners of war and using chemical weapons.

According to the assessment by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), russian forces have recently increased the number of systematic executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war, which violates the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners of war, prohibiting inhumane treatment and execution of POWs.

A russian military blogger posted a video and openly stated on October 20 that russian forces are using chloropicrin (a pesticide that damages the lungs) against Ukrainian troops.

Ukrainian officials had previously reported that russian forces are increasingly equipping grenades with chloropicrin.
