Russia-Ukraine war live news: dozens killed in Chasiv Yar strike; 80% of Donetsk residents have fled, governor says

 

Reuters is citing Russian news agency Interfax who report that an official in the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic has said decisions on the appeals of British and Moroccan fighters sentenced to death will be taken within a month.

28-year-old Aiden Aslin, from Newark, 48-year-old Shaun Pinner, from Watford, along with Moroccan national Saaudun Brahim were fighting with Ukrainian armed forces when captured.

Ukraine and western countries have said that the men are prisoners of war, entitled to protection under the Geneva Conventions.

UK foreign secretary Liz Truss has said she “utterly condemns” the sentencing stating “They are prisoners of war. This is a sham judgement with absolutely no legitimacy.”
All three have appealed their sentences.
