"In Cold Blood": Russian Forces Executing Surrendering Ukrainian Soldiers

Ukrainian forces are withdrawing from some areas in the northeastern region of Kharkiv as Russian forces continue a new offensive that has displaced thousands. This latest setback for Ukraine comes more than two years after Russia invaded the country. Human Rights Watch has documented several incidents of Russian soldiers summarily executing surrendering Ukrainian soldiers, with drone footage showing the killings in clear detail," says Belkis Wille, associate director with the Crisis, Conflict, and Arms Division at Human Rights Watch. They take off their vests, they put down their helmets, they lie on the ground and put their hands up. And then we see them being executed by Russian soldiers in cold blood."
