The Ukrainian prosecutor general’s office has launched an investigation into the allegations that Ukrainian forces executed Russian forces that had surrendered last weekend.
Earlier this month, videos were posted on social media that appeared to show Ukrainians killing 11 Russian soldiers as Ukrainian forces recaptured the village of Makiivka, though there are gaps in the videos. Kyiv and Moscow have each alleged the other side committed war crimes in this incident.The Luhansk Regional Prosecutor’s Office will investigate “perfidy,” or to feign surrendering only to take advantage of the element of surprise, Ukraine’s prosecutor general’s office said on Tuesday.
The gunman appeared to be dead near the spot he opened fire, while the soldiers who had been laying on their stomachs appear to be dead as well, according to an aerial view of the surroundings viewed by the New York Times. Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights, Dmytro Lubinets, said on Sunday that “returning fire is not a war crime.”
