Putin beordrar styrkor att gå in i Ukraina - INVASION NU (2022-02-24)

At least 21 ​​'filtration​​​' sites identified in Russian-controlled ​​territory, say Yale researchers

Researchers at Yale University ​say they have uncovered 21 "​filtration" sites in the Russian-controlled territory of Donetsk ​in eastern Ukraine. The ​researchers say these ​sites are used by Russian forces ​and their allies to process, register, interrogate and detain Ukrainians trying to ​leave Russian-occupied territory. ​Those detained can include civilians and prisoners of war.

"In some specific instances, the treatment described as having been endured by those released, such as use of electric shocks, extreme conditions of isolation, and physical assault, may potentially constitute torture if proven," the study says.

The study notes the accounts of apparent survivors who described among other things: overcrowded cells, forced labor and even torture. Yale HRL says it identified two areas of disturbed earth along the south and southwest sections of that facility which appear to be mass graves. ​

Vittnen som lyckats fly kontrollerna har larmat om att de behandlats grymt, inhumant och förnedrande – på sätt som kan bryta mot internationell lag, skriver CNN.

”I några specifika fall har behandlingen beskrivits som något att härda ut för de som släppts, så som användandet av elchocker, extrem isolering, och fysiska övergrepp, vilket potentiellt kan utgöra tortyr om det blir bevisat”, står det i rapporten enligt tv-kanalen.
