Some Russian soldiers captured in Ukraine have vowed to rise
against President Vladimir Putin when they return to their country.
The prisoners of war said that they would be judged for
attacking and killing innocent civilians in the ongoing invasion of Ukraine by
Russian forces.
They expressed shame over the invasion of Ukraine, saying
“We all will be judged”, CNN reports.
“I want to tell our commander-in-chief to stop terror acts
in Ukraine because when we come back, we’ll rise against him,” one of them said
as reported by CNN.
Russian President Vladimir Putin “has given orders to commit
crimes. It’s not just to demilitarize Ukraine or defeat the Armed Forces of
Ukraine, but now cities of peaceful civilians are being destroyed.
“The crimes that we committed, we all will be judged,” they
stated.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said that 600 Russian soldiers
have been captured in Ukraine and nearly a dozen of them appeared in news
conferences held by the Ukrainian authorities.
However, their public appearances may be questionable under
the Geneva Conventions. The conventions go against states unnecessarily
humiliating prisoners of war.
