A Video Depicting a Fatal Shooting

A video circulating on social media appears to depict a man being fatally shot by individuals speaking Russian, and has been tentatively identified as a missing Ukrainian soldier.

Ukraine’s chief prosecutor has announced a criminal investigation into the death of a man, and human rights chief Dmytro Lubinets has argued that it is a potential violation of the Geneva Conventions.

Senior Ukrainian officials have stated, without providing further evidence, that the man was an unarmed prisoner of war allegedly killed by Russian soldiers.

The 30th Mechanized Brigade on its Facebook page identified the man as Tymofii Shadura, who has been unaccounted for for just over a month, since going missing during clashes in the Bakhmut area of eastern Ukraine.

In the video, the man did not appear to be carrying any weapons.

The Associated Press sent queries to the Russian military regarding the clip, but did not receive an immediate response.

Reaction in Ukraine

The release of a video has sparked a reaction in Ukraine, and a prisoner exchange between Ukraine and Russia has been completed, with 130 Ukrainian soldiers being returned from Russian custody and 90 Russian servicemen being returned from areas under the control of Kyiv.

The United Nations Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, is travelling to Ukraine for a meeting on Wednesday with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

According to the Ukrainian presidential office, one civilian was reported dead and 11 more were injured in the country over the past 24 hours.

Hungary’s Position on NATO

A parliamentary delegation from Hungary stated on Tuesday during a visit to Denmark that it is in favor of Sweden joining NATO.
