1. Ukraine denounces POW execution calls

Ukrainian authorities have denounced Russian calls to "hang" or inflict a "humiliating death" on fighters from the Ukrainian Azov regiment, the day after a strike on a prison where some of them were being held that killed more than 50 prisoners of war.

"There is no difference between Russian diplomats calling for the execution of Ukrainian prisoners of war and Russian troops doing so in Olenivka. They are all complicit in these war crimes and must be held accountable," Ukrainian foreign ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko wrote on Twitter.

He was reacting to a tweet posted on Friday evening by the Russian Embassy in London, which Twitter flagged with a warning as having "breached rules on hateful conduct", but remains available to view as Twitter considers it "of interest to the public".

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the attack on the prison in Olenvika a "deliberate Russian war crime." 

Authorities in Ukraine believe that Russia carried out the attack to kill the prisoners of war and cover up evidence of torture, maltreatment and war crimes. The Russians have accused Ukraine of bombing the prison.

The International Committee of the Red Cross, which has organized civilian evacuations in the war and worked to monitor the treatment of POWS held by Russia and Ukraine, said it has requested access to the prison “to determine the health and condition of all the people present on-site at the time of the attack.”

“Our priority right now is making sure that the wounded receive life-saving treatment and that the bodies of those who lost their lives are dealt with in a dignified manner,” the Red Cross said in a statement.
