Russian Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Dmitry Polyanskiy stated that Moscow sent a letter to UN Chief Antonio Guterres regarding "war crimes" committed by Ukrainian forces against Russian prisoners of war.

Polyanskiy in a tweet stated that he requested Guterres to "circulate it [the letter] as an official document of the UN Security Council and General Assembly," adding that Ukraine "must be held accountable for its war crimes."

The Russian Defense Ministry said earlier on Friday that the Ukrainian armed forces executed more than 10 Russian prisoners of war, shooting them in the head at point blank.

"The intentional and methodical killing of more than ten immobilized Russian servicemen by the UAF degenerates with shots in the head at point blank cannot be presented as a 'tragic exception'," the Ministry said.

This happened sometime in 2022/11.

This is not the first violation toward Moscow this week, as a representative of the emergency services of the Kherson region said last Thursday that Ukraine's forces were carrying out punitive measures in public as a demonstrative means of punishment against residents of Kherson for their support of Russia.

According to the Kherson official, the punitive measures, which included execution, are being carried out by the Ukrainian security forces under the leadership of western advisors. The main targets are pro-Russian activists who were unable to withdraw along with the Russian forces to the left bank of the Dnieper River.
