torture

The Special Operations Force of the Ukrainian regime have tortured prisoners from the Lugansk People’s Republic in a move that violates every protocol of international legal requirements for the treatment of prisoners of war.
On the 24th of June, forces loyal to the Ukrainian regime killed two servicemen from the Lugansk People’s Republic and captured four others.
Those who were taken prisoner were later tortured.
Below are photos of the victims.

But that’s what happened.

It has been reported that U.S. forces have interrogated prisoners in secret prisons in Yemen, many of which are run by the United Arab Emirates, a member of the Saudi-led coalition that is waging war in the country. Acts of torture are said to have taken place in the prisons.

The United States is interrogating hundreds of men who were tortured by UAE prison guards, an AP investigation has revealed.

The news of this case first came out more than a year and a half ago, and I distinctly remember a strange schadenfreude emerging from the political left. Almost like this kid had it coming. Actually, not almost. That is what some people said.

Citizens in the southwest Yemeni province of Taiz – under control of Saudi-backed troops– have discovered the charred body of a young girl. Her body also exhibits signs of torture.

The United States is once again complicit in the torture of Iraqi citizens, this time at the hands of Iraqi special forces.
A further video has been released showing the torture and ‘field execution’ of Iraqi civilians. Their crime? Being Sunni Muslims who had the misfortune to live in regions in and around Mosul that were captured by ISIS.
RT has released footage which shows the brutal execution of an unarmed Iraqi man from December of 2016.
