A video appeared on Russian Telegram channels where a Ukrainian Defender of Mariupol Oleksandr Maksymchuk shares that he has spent two and a half years in Russian captivity and was tortured there.
Oleksandr and his brothers-in-arms were sentenced by Russian courts to 20 years in prison for defending their land from Russian aggression.
Thousands of Ukrainians remain in Russian captivity and go through hell there.
I’m surprised they even have court for these guys. I would figure they would torture them and dump them in a hole somewhere. They already seem to do that to their own people, so like…why are they bothering with all this showmanship here? Just to attempt to look “normal”?
