Amnesty International recorded that the Russian military carried out “indiscriminate attacks on densely populated residential areas, resulting in the death and injury of civilians and destruction of infrastructure.”
In its annual report, Amnesty International cited flagrant violations of the rules of war in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Amnesty International, in particular, noted that the Russian military, during its large-scale invasion of Ukraine, carried out “indiscriminate attacks on densely populated residential areas, resulting in the death and injury of civilians and infrastructure destruction.”
“In some cases, comments by Russian officials on the strikes indicate that the strikes were likely intentional,” the report said.
In addition, AI said that the military of the aggressor country, Russia, fired at energy infrastructure and facilities that ensure grain exports.
A separate line in the report talks about torture and other forms of ill-treatment by the Russians of Ukrainian prisoners of war.
“Russia continues to deny humanitarian organizations access to Ukrainian prisoners of war in its occupied Ukrainian territories,” the report said.
It was also noted that in Ukraine, international monitoring groups have access to the locations of Russian prisoners of war and can conduct private conversations with them.
AI also highlights increasing pressure on rights and freedoms in Russian-occupied territories, particularly Crimea. We are talking, in particular, about the compulsory passport, refusal to provide services to those who did not receive a Russian passport, as well as the opportunity to receive education only in Russian.
We remind you that on April 17, three powerful explosions occurred in Chernigov. It was later learned that the Russians could attack the city with Iskander cruise missiles.
