An "israeli" doctor revealed to zionist media the conditions at "Sde Teman" prisoner camp outside of #Gaza:

Nutrition in the hospital is conducted in demeaning ways, and detainees are forced to defecate in diapers and have their hands shackled.

In just the last week, two detainees underwent leg amputations due to injuries that began from having their hands shackled. The hospital does not receive regular supplies of medicine or equipment, and all its patients are shackled by all four limbs.

Even young and healthy patients lose weight after about a week or two of treatment in the hospital.

The report stated that the shackling of detainees' hands and blindfolding them are direct instructions from the Ministry of Health. This shackling has resulted in injuries in over half of the detainees held in the hospital.

Did men in a unit know when one of their fellow soldiers was in a POW camp? I know families were informed if the information was available, but I don't know if that information worked its way down in one way or another to the other soldiers in a company.

I feel like the answer is no because it feels like asking for trouble, but also, military history is full of dumb ideas. So.

#military history #pows #yes this is about masters of the air #but it's mostly realizing i don't know who knew what #like was it literally like coming back from the dead

Nothing to see here, just:

(1) russians complaining that ukrainians don't donate to the families of convicts who voluntarely joined the army to earn money by killing ukrainians;

(2) calling a dude who served 24 years in maximum-security penal colony for a murder and organised crime a "political prisoner"

(3) blaming SBU for.... doing prisoner exchange according to international law? To which the prisoner consented, as accodring to international law??? For prioritising ukrainians POWs over russian thugs?

Y'all lecture us every day on how we're too hard on russians, since you know them oh so better than ukrainians do. Yet you know nothing about how prison culture - "ponyatiya" - are ingrained in their culture. You have no idea how imperialistic is their mindset, how they expect ukrainians to always put them before ourselves.

Like, for real, this is not the only russian that blames Ukraine for the death of this dude because "SBU should have known Wagner would have executed him". So, you think we should have left our soldiers in their hands? All this sacrifice to save the precious life of a russian murderer - WHO VOLOUNTEERED TO COME HERE TO KILL US? And they dare to get offended at us when we didn't follow these ridiculous demands?

And this is not a bot, nor a putin supporter. This is a so-called anti-war opposition. This is the best they can offer.

[ 📹📸 A Russian military transport plane, was in the process of flying 65 Ukrainian POWs to a location in the Bolgorod oblast to facilitate a prisoner exchange when it was shot out of the sky by Ukrainian missile, killing everyone on board.]

🇺🇦⚔️🇷🇺 🚀🛩️💥 🚨

UKRAINIAN MISSILE SHOOTS DOWN RUSSIAN MILITARY TRANSPORT PLANE FILLED WITH ITS OWN POWs

74 are dead, including 65 Ukrainian POWs, after a Russian military transport plane being used to facilitate a prisoner exchange scheduled for Wednesday was downed somewhere over the Bolgorod region of the Russian Federation, near the border with Ukraine. The prisoner exchange has since been called off by Russian authorities.

In an article published by Ukrainian Pravda, a Ukrainian news periodical, a source is cited as saying that the aircraft was downed by Ukrainian forces near the border with Russia's Bolgorod region, however they have since retracted the source, and are now claiming they cannot confirm the news. The Russian authorities have since confirmed that the plane was in fact downed by a Ukrainian missile, likely using either an American Patriot air defense missile or a German-made Iris-T.

In a statement released by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the Russian authorities say that the crash took place at approximately 11:15am (local time), when a Russian Il-76 military transport plane filled with Ukrainian POWs was downed near the Bolgorod region.

“At about 11:00 Moscow time, an Il-76 plane crashed during a scheduled flight in the Belgorod region. On board there were 65 captured Ukrainian Armed Forces servicemen, <including> six crew members and three accompanying persons,” the statement says.

In its statement, the Russian Defense Ministry slammed the missile strike, declaring the "Kiev regime committed a terrorist act" in downing the military transport.

According to Russian sources, the aircraft had been en route from the Chkalovsky military airbase in Moscow, and was shot down by air defenses stationed somewhere in the Kharkov oblast in the northeast of Ukraine, killing everyone on board.

The Russian and Ukrainian authorities had agreed to conduct a prisoner exchange later on Wednesday, with the exchange set to take place near the Russian village of Kolotilovka, also in the Bolgorod oblast, close to the border with Ukraine.

A second military transport aircraft carrying some 80 Ukrainian POWs was turned around before reaching the danger area, and was successfully diverted to another airbase after news of the downing reached Russian authorities.

The Ukrainian officials have so far refused to comment on the crash, remaining mum as news of the event spreads, although Andrey Yusov, a spokesperson for the Main Directorate of Intelligence (GUR) confirmed a prisoner exchange had been scheduled for Wednesday, adding that the exchange has since been cancelled.

I love this gifset so much. Ever since I saw this prompt I knew what I was gonna do for it. The trick was to remember this scene, and where I had seen it. Both me and @thethistlegirl were seeing the same thing in our heads when we read the prompt and through a process of elimination of possible shows and episodes, we found it was the Magnum reboot pilot episode. It was too vivid for us to have made it up, and we were right, we did it see it somehere. This scene somehow got seared in our brains, and I am glad for that. This moment is going to haunt me for a long, long time. The trust, the support, the love and care between these two, mwah, chef's kiss.

I wonder if Metal Slug is too obscure for folks to know what this strip is referencing.

I hope not. It was one of my favorite games to play at an arcade.

Ukraine: UN Commission concerned by continuing patterns of violations of human rights and international humanitarian law | OHCHR

One Ukrainian soldier, who was detained and tortured by Russian authorities in several detention facilities, recounted his experience in the correctional colony in the town of Donskoy, Tula region, where he was repeatedly subjected to torture and left with broken bones, broken teeth and gangrene on an injured foot. “I lost any hope and the will to live,” the soldier said, adding that he had tried to kill himself but perpetrators subjected him to further beating. After his release, the soldier has been hospitalized 36 times. Investigations found additional evidence concerning the unlawful transfer of children to areas under Russian control. The report documents incidents of rape and other sexual violence committed against women in circumstances which also amount to torture. It also details incidents of torture with a sexualised dimension and threats of rape against male prisoners of war.

"They put a lighted match into the anus": neurosurgeon released from captivity about torture and attitude of Russians to prisoners of war

34-year-old neurosurgeon Dmytro Kubriak saved the lives of the wounded in the bunker of the Ilyich Iron and Steel Works in Mariupol. In April 2022, he was taken prisoner by Russia, where he spent five and a half months in the notorious colony in Olenivka. There he witnessed horrific torture by the Russian military and a terrorist attack that killed 53 prisoners.

Dmytro Kubryak was part of a group of medics who volunteered to get to the besieged Mariupol by helicopter to reinforce hospital units. Thus, in the morning of March 31 he got to Mariupol. He was assigned to the Ilyich Combine, where a part of the Mariupol hospital worked and the 36th Marine Brigade was based

He said that on April 12 he received an order to go up to the surface from the bunker together with the wounded and surrender. First, the prisoners spent four days in a filtration camp in Sartana near Mariupol. On April 16, they were taken to the colony in Olenivka. According to Dmytro's estimates, 1600-1700 Ukrainian prisoners of war were taken from Ilyich Iron and Steel Works to Olenivka. Medics and wounded were placed in a separate prison barracks, where there were about 200 people.

"At first we slept on the concrete floor, then on some mattresses. They fed us like the others, that is to say, barely anything… They brought us into the room, sat us at the table, gave us hot porridge and three minutes to eat. Of course, it is impossible to eat hot food during this time. Therefore, everyone was half-starved, and a significant part of the prisoners lost a lot of weight," said Dmytro Kubryak.

According to him, Russians interrogated captured tankers, snipers, scouts, artillerymen with "particular passion". They tried to get any valuable information from them and to obtain confessions in the murder of civilians.

"These guys were tortured to force them to sign absurd charges. I was involved in providing assistance to these prisoners of war, I saw the consequences of torture… They were severely beaten, tortured with electric current. For example, one soldier had a lighted match inserted into his anus. The guy had burns of the crotch, scrotum", - Dmytro Kubryak recalls.

He also recalled the case when a seriously wounded soldier who survived an air strike in a bunker was beaten to death by guards of the colony in Olenivka.

Explosion in Olenivka

According to Dmytro Kubryak, ten days before the tragedy, the repair of the barracks, in which no one lived, began. Then 200 prisoners of war, mostly from "Azov", were selected and moved to this repaired barracks on July 28. On the night of July 29, there was an explosion.

"Our building was three hundred meters away, but we clearly heard loud terrible screams. I've never heard such sounds before or after… The heartbreaking screams of agonizing people were heard all over the colony… It's indescribable! The explosion occurred at about 23:30, and only after 30-40 minutes we, Ukrainian medics, were involved to provide assistance. We ran to the scene of the tragedy - what we saw was shocking. Fifty people died at once - burned alive. The rest crawled out of the barracks as best they could… A huge number of wounded! They were writhing in pain and screaming: "Help!". And in this chaos, in the darkness, we had to decide: who to help in the first place, who not to help, who can wait," the military doctor said.

For almost six hours Ukrainian prisoners of war, who received deep burns, shrapnel wounds, traumatic amputations of limbs, damage to internal organs, just lay on the ground. During this time, five people died. The first KamAZ truck with the wounded left Olenivka at five in the morning - eighty people were taken to the hospital in Donetsk. About thirty more prisoners of war were slightly wounded, so they were left in Olenivka.

Dmytro Kubryak was in captivity for five and a half months. His group was taken from the colony in Olenivka on September 20. On September 22, he returned to Ukraine as part of the prisoner exchange.
