Ukraine has vowed to investigate after graphic videos emerged purporting to show the horrific abuse of Russian prisoners of war, including some who were shot in the legs.
“The government is taking this very seriously, and there will be an immediate investigation,” senior presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych said Sunday, the Washington Examiner reported.
“We are a European army, and we do not mock our prisoners. If this turns out to be real, this is absolutely unacceptable behavior,” President Volodymyr Zelensky’s adviser added.
One clip shows what appear to be Ukrainian troops removing three Russian soldiers from a van seconds before the detainees are shot in the legs.
In another video, the faces of injured and bloodied Russians are seen after hoods are removed from their heads.
The authenticity of the harrowing footage has not been independently verified, and exactly where the videos were shot was unclear.

War Crimes
Oh oh. The RAT Snowflakes’ side are committing war crimes and crimes against humanity. No telling what the hell they are doing to “da enviomen”.
Maybe there's a price to pay for war crimes....... just sayin.
Homos are good at that.
Abusing POWs is just stupid. You want the enemy to surrender, not fight to the last breath.
I’ve seen videos of purported Ukraine crimes against Russian soldiers.
If they are what they claim to be, it’s intense and inhuman abuse.
When the fog of war lifts hopefully it can all be sorted out.
Malmedy.
Just the fact we are seeing the pictures is a war crime. We complained loudly to North Vietnam about that...
Our guys did that in Okinawa. Couldn’t escort them to the back lines and risk getting shot by a sniper. The enemy was crazy.
.
Have to be Investigated as War Crimes.
You won’t see Fox News 5:00p - 7:00p doing the breathless outrage schtick.
..
Unwatchable Neocon slop.
That’s the right response, to investigate and condemn. You can’t claim the high ground if you allow that sh*t to happen, even if out of revenge.
How can they be ‘war crimes’ when this is just a special military operation?
These are just operational anomalies is all.
(-;
Won’t be talked about on regular news channels. It popped up and is being spread on social media and select channels that aren’t main stream.. They are getting out ahead of it. It’s happening all over. It’s war. They are killing each other and war is savage.
“Abusing POWs is just stupid. You want the enemy to surrender, not fight to the last breath.”

I’m sure this and other similar videos will get wide circulation in Russia and will likely have the hardening effect you mention. I’m surprised we’re seeing this video in the West, however. It got by the “gatekeepers” somehow.
Because you Neocons declared Putin a war criminal.
I’m surprised there are still so many neocons here. Considering what a threat and how evil Putin is you’d think they’d have all volunteered and flown to the
Ukraine by now.
Neocons are always the first to volunteer the Deplorables for their illegal wars. They never go themselves.

You are on target here. The videos are everywhere, and there are others too, for example, now there is a video of the ruins of the Theatre in Mariupol that was blown up by Azov Nazis — with hostages. Russians found burned down bodies there.

What Ukes did removes lingering doubts that their fight is indeed with the Nazis.
This greatly reduces already slim chances of any kind of peace deal and will definitely result in fewer Azov people and mercs being taken prisoner.
