Canada sanctions 8 Russians over deportation, militarization of Ukrainian children
Kyiv Independent·CA · RU · UA·about 2 hours ago
An investigation documents two new FSB-run pretrial detention centers in occupied Crimea where Ukrainian civilians are held for months without charges, legal access, or family contact, with detainees reporting torture. The pattern is consistent with established Russian practices in occupied territories, but the specific facilities and allegations are newly detailed. This matters as evidence of systematic human rights abuses that could inform war-crimes accountability and international sanctions.
