#Ukraine's ombudswoman: Ukrainian POWs taken near #Mariupol have been initially kept in basements and transferred to pre-trial detention centers in Donetsk & other occupied areas or detention centers in Taganrog & Voronezh, Russia. #Azov fighters are subjected to special ordeals 
Soldiers are being transferred with sacks on their heads, tied and blindfolded. Interrogations are carried out with systematic kicking, beating toes & open wounds with riffle butts/pliers, strangulation, electrocuting, injections of unidentified drugs provoking memory loss
Captives are forced to learn the poem "Forgive us, dear Russians", the anthem of #Russia and history of its state seal & flag. 17-20 female POWs are being held in the Donetsk pre-trial detention center in cells designed for 2-3 people, deprived of sanitation and hygiene products
Prior to interrogation women are raped and forced to witness brutal beating of male prisoners. Ukrainian servicemen were not provided with vital medical care, receive 1.5L of water for 30-40 people and a piece of bread & lard (sometimes told to be human) a day #RussianWarCrimes
