A new report from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe found that patterns of violent acts by Russian forces in Ukraine meet the qualification of crimes against humanity, detailing horrific actions by Russian forces including the discovery of torture chambers at a summer camp in Bucha.
The new report released Thursday was the latest instance of groups documenting potential war crimes committed by Russian forces. The OSCE experts who put together the report traveled to Kyiv and met with Ukrainian authorities there as well as Bucha and Irpin, where they found "grave breaches" of international humanitarian law and the Geneva Convention.
The report "found credible evidence" that suggested "some patterns of violent acts which had been repeatedly documented during the conflict," including "killing, rape abductions or massive deportations of civilians, qualified as a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian population."
