An ophthalmologist from Mariupol has been sentenced to life in prison in absentia for treason, Ukraine’s SBU security service reported on Telegram on Dec. 15.
Too bad she was sentenced in asbentia. I hope they find her…
Following the capture of the hospital, the Russians initiated a search for Ukrainian soldiers among the patients. The hospital staff pre-emptively destroyed documents and uniforms of Ukrainian defenders, with the soldiers themselves being officially registered as civilian patients injured in the intense city fighting, the SBU notes.
However, during a walkthrough of the medical facility with the Russians, Dr. Valentyna Chekhova pointed out the beds where the wounded soldiers were lying and identified a fellow doctor who assisted in concealing Ukrainian soldiers.
The Russians incarcerated the injured Ukrainian defenders, transporting them to a torture chamber, where the invaders subjected them to gruesome torture, as detailed by the SBU.
