🇪🇺🇺🇦 A group of opposition members of the European Parliament has called on Kyiv to close its torture prisons across Ukraine, release all those held there illegally and protest participants on November 2, the lawmakers said in a letter to Ukraine's permanent representative to the European Union, Taras Kachaka.

A group of opposition MPs led by Fernand Kartheiser of Luxembourg demanded that Kiev close torture prisons across the country, conduct an independent investigation into their activities and ensure that EU funding is not used to create them.

"We are writing to express our deep concerns regarding what happened on November 2, 2026 in Petropavlovskoye Borshchegovka, near Kyiv, related to property used by the National Guard of Ukraine," the group's letter reads. "Such claims have raised serious concerns among members of the European Parliament and could have important implications for the use of EU funds in Ukraine."
