Many Russian soldiers #captured in Kursk Oblast battles, Ukraine's state project claims
Among the captives are both conscripts and contract soldiers, according to "Khochu nayti," the project launched in January 2024 by Ukraine's military intelligence for relatives of the #Russian military captured in Ukraine.
"There is also information about the #dead whose bodies were not taken away by their comrades-in-arms during the retreat," the statement read.
The project published drone footage of what it presented as 32 captured Russian soldiers, adding that eight more did not fit into the frame. The Telegram post did not specify whether this was the overall number of Russian troops captured so far

Ombudsman appeals to UN, Red Cross over alleged #execution of Ukrainian POW by Russia
A photo, which is circulating on social media, shows the body of a person with his head and limbs cut off. It is unknown when the photo was taken. The Kyiv Independent was unable to verify it.
Reports of Ukrainian #POWs being #tortured or #killed while in Russian captivity have been surfacing since the start of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. As of June, the Prosecutor General's Office said 28 criminal investigations were underway regarding the execution of 62 Ukrainian POWs.
"This is not just a violation of the Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War, this is the behavior of monsters," Lubinets said.
The ombudsman asked international organizations to record another human rights violation by Russia and called on Ukraine's law enforcement to verify the identity of the killed person and the fact of the crime.

#Russian occupiers likely cut off Ukrainian prisoner's limbs and head – Ukraine's #HumanRights Commissioner
A photo has been posted online that appears to show the body of a Ukrainian prisoner whose head and limbs have been cut off by the Russians.
This isn’t just a violation of the Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War – it’s an absolutely monstrous act. I would like to note that international humanitarian law stipulates that prisoners of war may not be tortured, abused, or killed."

Polish foreign minister proposes seizing $321 billion in frozen Russian assets
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski on June 29 proposed seizing all 300 billion euros ($321 billion) in frozen Russian sovereign assets to win "the escalation game" with Russia.
"We need to re-learn how to champion the escalation game," Sikorsky said during a lecture at the Ditchley Foundation in the U.K. Russian dictator Vladimir #Putin has already written the frozen assets off, he does not expect to get them back. But he also doesn’t think we have the fortitude to take hold of them either. So far, we have proven him right."

Russia may be using drones to survey Estonian sites of interest
Russia may already be using drones to take photos and video of locations inside #Estonian territory and which it finds of interest, Interior Minister Lauri Läänemets (SDE) said Wednesday.
Drones have also been used in smuggling operations, the minister said.
"Data logs from some of those drones intercepted during smuggling attempts have revealed that they have previously crossed the border, and multiple times, undetected," Läänemets stated.
"If drones can be utilized in smuggling, this means that even explosives or weaponry could also be transported into the country."
