Russian army officer admits that troops tortured Ukrainian soldiers – BBC News



Allegations of brutal interrogations, where Ukrainian men were shot and threatened with rape, have been made by a former Russian military officer.

Konstantin Yefremov, the most senior officer to speak openly, told the BBC in an exclusive interview Russia now sees him as a traitor and defector, and he has now fled the country.

At one site in southern Ukraine, he said “the interrogations, the torture, continued for about a week”.

  1. When I was a child in Grade school, we were taught how to dive under our desks in case the Russians would bomb and kill us. This was 65 years ago. Now my Grandchildren, and future Great Grandchildren, have to learn how to protect themselves from them again. The Russians are going to start World War 3. This is so wrong. So wrong. How many more Generations have to go through this before it stops. How many more murders will take place before they are happy with the body count. What is wrong with them?

  2. That kind of interrogation was normal im USSR soviet state occupied countries. They even tortured and killed church priests or teachers who mentioned im school the fact that in Ribbentrop Molotow pact moscow stabbed poland in the back on 17.09.1939 hand-in-glove with the nazis. Torture interrogations are common in toralitarian governments disrespecting the rule of law or human rights

  3. It's unimaginable to think you've No native Country anymore for only being human to another.
    Unfortunately it's probably only tip of an iceberg and Russia will for decades, many decades be isolated from the World.

  4. A Russian Guy that telling about tortured Troops….maybe Bullshit, may he is right on the Ukraine Side theres also the same Storys. Depents on the Battalion. Dont forget the Russian Guys that was lay on the Ground and got all Shot because 1 of them was trying to go on a Killingspree, the Guys on the Ground didnt do anything and got executed. Why would i believe in Western Media? They bombed the Piplines and cut the Gas from Europe, there is no "Friends" anymore.

  6. We need a underground railroad type operation to collect these types of people from Russia and the Russian army. These kinds of people could be helpful in a prosecution of war crimes

  7. Russia has no leader, don't call anyone president just because of his orders of who he will and will not kill. Mostly civilians from another and even their own country. Memory of Boris Nemtsov. Freedom for Ukraine and also for the Russian people

  8. This doesn’t sound all that bad. I saw Russians castrate a Ukrainian and I saw a Ukrainian stab a “Russian collaborator” eyes out while he screamed in agony. The Ukrainian on average tend to be more savage then the Russians. The Russian initially seem to show some sort of respect.

  9. So… am I supposed to discount the videos of Ukrainians stabbing POWs in the eye, shooting prone men in the head, beating POWS, setting a DPR soldier on fire while nailed to a cross ( circa 2015, Azov theatrically killing a Russian speaking Ukrainian) etc… or should I just pick one side like this propaganda wants me to. Ukrainian SBU are torturing and killing their own citizens who stray from the fold. Anyone even who has said “let’s get a ceasefire” has wound up missing or dead. Bullshit western propaganda. The BBC backs the English government who deliberately derailed peace talks because they would rather every last Ukrainian die just so they can have a proxy army to fight their rival without the messy political backlash of commuting English troops.
