11:02 am
russian prisoners of war and pearsons, or to combat by ukrainian armed forces, which we have documented this was often perpetrated immediately upon capture on the battlefield. while we are, we're aware of ongoing investigations by ukrainian authorities into 5 cases involving 22 victims. we are not aware of any prosecution of the perpetrators in relation to the treatment of ukrainian prisoners of war. we are also deeply concerned by the summary execution of 15 ukrainian prisoners of war shortly after being captured by russian armed forces. the wagner wagner, group military and security contractors, perpetrated 11 of these executions. i spoke to nick connelly, our corresponded in keith about the findings in the report. certainly these
11:03 am
are shocking allegations. we've had some racism of the methodology from ukraine's human rights ombudsman. and he's important distress though, that the numbers are not conclusive, and they are skewed towards the potential abuses committed on the ukrainian side. simply because russia does not allow access to these un bodies to ukrainian prisons . war either in rational about ukraine or in westport, was there any able to talk to you brennan, former presence of, or who've returned, who've been released in and out back in ukraine? so i think this is an important 1st salt, but in terms of understanding the scale of this is going to take a whole lot more time. potentially. we're only going to really understand the full extent of these abuses after this war is over because simply the access isn't there . there isn't another issue here, as you well know. throughout this war we've struggled to get reliable numbers for civilians being either killed or injured or who have simply vanished. let's listen to me until the bubner again. the war has come at a hernandez,
11:04 am
human cost. as of this week, we have documented more than 8000 civilians who have been killed and almost 14000 injured. more than 90 percent were caused by missiles, explosive weapons on mines and explosive remnants of war. the actual figures are unfortunately considerably higher. nick, why is it so difficult to get reliable numbers? well, some of it is about the chaos of war. hundreds of 1000 millions of ukrainians have left their home. many them within ukraine, but also to other countries in europe, trying to track down people who have survived some of the worst battles of this war . and marable, all milan screeching last year is very, very difficult and little confusion about where people are and trying to kind of verify the numbers that have come from the ground. and again, it's a story of access, the russian occupational, thirty's, innocent, kind on,
11:05 am
not allowing access. so the investigates for this report haven't been to place like mary paul, that you know, most people will remember as the c scene or some of the worst fighting the beginning. this war, those awful scenes of the destroyed theater with hundreds of people were sheltering in the basement. all the destruction in the maternity would that those images of the mothers running downstairs with the new born babies that all is not accounted for. so things are important to say, this is question of verified cases rather than the complete numbers. this is the 1st attempt, and i think the kind of burden of proof required here is pretty high. but i think it's important, these attempts being made already as this war is still going on. this is something that is going to take a long time. we've seen it in a previous conflict, but the people are here on the ground. i'll try and clicks information to make sure that this truth actually gets out. you have covered this war since the start. what are people on the ground telling you about the hidden cost of this war? well certainly there is the hidden danger and cost to real people as of see things
11:06 am
like landlines, and there are a huge areas of ukraine that i'll just not safe aware. the yet damage to surveillance is going to continue for years if not decades. but in terms the kind of psychological impact in people far away from the front lines, all living with urology of war are seeing their relatives coming to damage and also living with the potential of being called up to fight. so any moment, so there is an epidemic of depression, of anxiety in this country, people taking sleeping pills, people having to take other kinds of medication to somehow deal with the stresses and the kind of background tensions of living in a country at war. and i think for lots people that's only going to be really felt once this was over, they can let go and kind of adrenalin was of the w's nic connelly in keys as ever. many things the banking crisis should golfing global stock market as spread to germany. it's biggest lender, deutsche bank lead a europe wide sell off. chancellor
