EU to condemn Russia’s detention and abuse of Ukrainian civilians in secret prisons | DW News

The European Parliament is set to vote this week on a resolution condemning Russia’s detention of Ukrainian civilians. It's not known how many civilians are being held in prisons and special camps. Estimates range from ten to thirty thousand people. The vote comes a week after a screening of the documentary 'Prisoners: The System of Terror.' It examines a clandestine detention infrastructure in Russian occupied territories. We have these reports - and a warning: it contains distressing images of Ukrainians tortured by Russian forces.
