Commissioner for Human Rights Liudmyla Denisova: The russian occupiers use the methods of People’s Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR units, which disguised themselves as Ukrainian insurgent army soldiers and killed civilians, creating the myth of “Bandera atrocities.”
In Tokmak, Zaporizhia Oblast, which is temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation, russian invaders began to sew uniforms and change into the uniform of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Provocations to discredit the Ukrainian military in the occupied territories and sabotage reconnaissance groups attacks on the demarcation line are not ruled out.
According to Article 23 of the Geneva Convention on the Laws and Regulations of War, disguise in the form of an enemy during war is a war crime.
