“We discovered four torture sites used by the Russians in Kherson during the Russian occupation of this southern Ukrainian city and until its recapture by Kiev troops on November 11,” the Ukrainians announced on Monday (11\/21).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“In Kherson, prosecutors are still investigating Russia’s crimes: torture sites have been identified in four buildings,” the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office said on Telegram as the war continued. According to the prosecutor’s office, Ukrainian investigators went to “four” buildings, mostly “temporary detention centers” before the war, “where during the occupation of the city, the occupying authorities illegally detained people and brutally tortured them.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A device used by the occupying authorities to administer electric shocks was found<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n “Pieces of a rubber club, a wooden bat, a device used by the occupying authorities to electrocute civilians, an incandescent lamp and bullets were seized,” the same source added, ten days after the recapture of Kherson by the Ukrainian army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the same time, the Ukrainian General Prosecutor’s Office stated that “the work aimed at ascertaining the places where torture chambers and illegal detention of people are located will continue” while clarifying that it also wants to “identify all victims”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After Kherson was liberated on November 11, Kyiv repeatedly denounced Russian “war crimes” and “atrocities” in the Kherson region. Moscow has so far not reacted to these accusations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" “We discovered four torture sites used by the Russians in Kherson during the Russian occupation of this southern Ukrainian city and until its recapture…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":27650,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2362,7,3830],"tags":[58,1156,1976,3395],"class_list":["post-11065","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-military-science","category-research","category-war-in-ukraine","tag-russia","tag-ukraine","tag-war","tag-war-in-ukraine"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11065"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11065\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11067,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11065\/revisions\/11067"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/27650"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11065"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
