Ukraine accuses Russian forces of beheading a Ukrainian soldier in the Donetsk region.
Ukraine's Prosecutor General Andrij Kostin's office reports on social media that the country's military discovered a damaged vehicle from the Ukrainian military while conducting aerial reconnaissance.
A severed head from a Ukrainian soldier was found, according to the office.
"We have received information that Russian commanders have ordered not to take Ukrainian soldiers as prisoners but to kill them with inhumane brutality – by beheading", Kostin writes on X.
"It is further evidence that the war crimes committed by the aggressor are not isolated incidents but a planned strategy by the Russian regime", he claims.
During the war, both Russia and Ukraine have accused each other of allegations that are difficult to verify.
