The ombudsman wrote that he has appealed to the United Nations and the International Committee of the Red Cross regarding another act of violation of international humanitarian law by the Russian side.
Russians use such videos to intimidate and demoralize Ukrainians, he said.
"However, this only strengthens our determination to bring everyone who commits such inhuman atrocities to inevitable accountability," Lubinets emphasized.
Analysts from the Deep State project reported that occupiers from the 155th Separate Marine Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces allegedly executed the Ukrainian soldier. They claim the crime scene is the Kolotilovka checkpoint.
