The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) was unable to establish from video the circumstances in which Ukrainian soldiers may have beheaded the alleged Russian Marine .
Earlier, the Readovka telegram channel published a video in which Russian soldiers discovered a torture chamber in a captured stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. They claim that here the soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine tortured a captured soldier from the 155th Marine Brigade, after which they cut off his head. The Russian Ministry of Defense neither confirmed nor commented on this information.
OHCHR Spokesperson Marta Hurtado said that the organization had watched the video and found it disturbing. However, on the basis of these frames alone, the Department cannot establish what really happened.
