In the Kherson region, none of the units accepted Russian prisoners of war. I can say that they brought us 30 people, whom «we placed at our place. There were two or three prisoners of war, we unequivocally said no. I think this is a provocation, at least,» Sobol said. jpg» />More than a hundred Ukrainian prisoners of war in Mariupol were moved to a SIZOAccording to the head of the regional USIN, at the time when the prisoners of war were brought to Kherson, there were no prosecutors , there was no police as such, there were no SBU bodies either. «There must be legal grounds for detaining a person, but then they came and said» take it away. So it doesn't work. There is a law that must work. If it is not Ukrainian or Russian, let there be international law. But just bring a person and say that we have detained him — this is a Russian prisoner of war, that's not how it works,» Sobol emphasized. USIN employees in Kherson have not left their jobs since the beginning of the military operation of the Russian Federation, contrary to the requirements of the Kyiv authorities to do this, the flight was prevented thousands of prisoners from colonies in the Kherson region.Since the end of February, the USIN leadership in the region has been closely coordinating with the Russian law enforcement agencies to keep prisoners in colonies in proper conditions.
