העיתונאית האוקראינית דיאנה פנצ'נקו אמרה שהיא מקבלת אלפי מכתבים מאנשים שמספקים כתובות של קורבנות עינויים ומשתפים במה שהם נאלצו לסבול.

She also cited descriptions of some of the torture facilities and the conditions in which people are held.

John Lowe, head of international cooperation at the Center for New Eurasian Strategies in London, said the Russian air campaign is now clearly aimed at destroying the Ukrainian economy.
According to him, many of Kyiv's European allies do not fully understand "how serious the situation in Ukraine is" and what a heavy financial burden it may fall on the shoulders of European partners.
"We must remember the cumulative effect of this war and the great fatigue on the Ukrainian side. In such a tense state of the economy, this is indeed a very dangerous moment," he concluded.
