“As of today, 357 servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces and representatives of the occupation “authorities” have already been identified, suspected of committing premeditated murders, torture and cruel treatment of civilians and prisoners of war.

83 of them were convicted. But the real number of such crimes, including those committed in temporarily occupied territories and in places of unfreedom located on Russian territory, is much greater.

Kostin noted that the Office of the Prosecutor General is open to enhancing cooperation to ensure the effective investigation of these and other war crimes and bringing those responsible to justice.
