Videos circulated on Russian social media this week that purport to show the bodies of Russian servicemen killed after surrendering to Ukrainian troops.

One video shows soldiers apparently surrendering to several military personnel in camouflage and wearing yellow armbands. "We are aware of the videos and we are looking into them," a UN spokesperson told AFP, calling for the perpetrators to be held to account.
