DONETSK, NOVEMBER 1 /SRNA/ - The use of Russian prisoners of war by Ukraine as suicide bombers constitutes a serious war crime, leader of the Donetsk People's Republic Denis Pushilin said.


"This is a violation of humanitarian law; these are indeed very serious war crimes. We are talking about the use of prisoners of war as suicide bombers," Pushilin said in an interview with TASS.

He added that international media, the public, and human rights organizations were ignoring the facts regarding this issue.
