New York Times: Chosen Company in Ukraine Accused of War Crimes Against Russian POWs
Jul 6, 2024, 01:12 PM
A New York Times investigation has revealed allegations of war crimes committed by members of an American-led international volunteer unit, known as Chosen Company, fighting for Ukraine. The unit is accused of killing unarmed Russian soldiers and prisoners of war. One incident involved a wounded Russian soldier pleading for medical assistance before being shot by a member of the unit. Caspar Grosse, a German medic in the unit, reported witnessing the incident and confronted his commander about the killings. Other members of the unit have reportedly boasted about these actions in group chats. These allegations have raised concerns about violations of the Geneva Convention by Ukrainian forces and their international allies.
