Deportation and Torture: Amnesty International accused the Russian Federation of crimes against humanity in Ukraine

It is reported that Russia has forcibly exported and deport civilians from the occupied territories of Ukraine. The Amnesty International report is built on an interview with 88 civilians. 48 of them - from Mariupol, are also people from Kharkiv, Lugansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions. The organization gathered evidence that the Russians did not leave civilians of another choice but to go to Russia or other occupied territories of Ukraine.

The report also documented the offenses of Russian troops during the violent procedure for verification of civilians - "filtration". It is reported that during this process, people became victims of war crimes, unlawful detention. In addition, they were tortured or other forms of rigid treatment.

"The separation of children with their families and the forced movement of people by hundreds of kilometers from their homes proves even more of the Russian invasion of the civilian population of Ukraine," said Amnesty International Secretary General, Amnesty International. According to human rights activists, some civilians were arbitrarily detained, beaten, used by electric shocks, and threatened to execute.

In addition, in some cases, the invaders sought unaccompanied children, the elderly and persons with disabilities who were unable to reach relative safety. Their Russian troops were sent to the occupied units of Donetsk region. Amnesty International Secretary General Anges Callarm said that the deportation of civilians from the occupied territories should be qualified and investigated as a crime against humanity.

We will remind, on October 21, Amnesty International recognized the fire of the Russian Federation of infrastructure of Ukraine with a military crime. The organization stated that Russia wants to disturb the psychological state of Ukrainians, leaving them without water, light and warm in winter.
