execution of up to 25 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 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. and that was matilda wagner hate of the when human rights monitoring mission in ukraine. a key is foreign ministry says it

expects the u. n. to avoid equalizing the victim and the aggressor under itself, thousands of russians have left to their homeland since president vladimir putin order to the invasion of ukraine. last year. many were fleeing economic hardship. others wanted to avoid being called up to fight in ukraine. some who are unwilling to join the army are still in russia, but living in hiding chop would melt ice and blue tea and off to work in the neighboring tent. this is what adam cleanings day looks like. the 80 worker has been awaiting conscription for 6 month in a forest in south, in russia, at the shuttle. moultrie, cham, it's still better than going to war. move from just because i haven't engaged and killing people for what easter adam is not his real name. and he prefers to hide his face and location. he went to the woods when the kremlin

announced a mass mobilization last autumn. he thought it would only be for a month. but in fact, even more russians are still being called up. all this time adam has lived in the woods. you had your ship, this daughter. i didn't want to take any risks up. um, so i thought it must will isolate myself what to watch, notches each to saturday, the leroy to if nobody could physically grab my hand, if he still couldn't guarantee my safety. what are you going to process now? i have experience camping. i am not afraid to sleep in the tent spots blocked a different period more. adam has made a life for himself in the forest till he has insulated his land, established communications, and built the kitchen. his wife bring supplies once a month and he still works remotely, as a programmer, even here in the forest. and in his free time, he share stories of his life on social media. yeah, for multi cure, sluggish,

i can work comfortably in the forest when a comfort, my boycheck rumbled at his liver, when i had to tune my internet antenna or so to we signal it wasn't easy, but the connection is good enough. electrical was fabulous. cricut, the playlist. gotch, the surgeon, the one un hotel, hundreds of solvents left, rush after the mobilization announcement, but that was not an option for adam for sure. gotcha. why should i leave my country leaders? i've been living here for so long. i can't say everything is wonderful here, so that there is a psychological bond to kick of the places and people i know, perhaps friends and family, who bitching in his stomach silly nika, rochelle mild was yardstick from the beginning of russia's full scale invasion. adam protested against the war. he was fined and detained for 2 weeks. hiding in the woods is also a form of protest, and he is not planning to return home for now. i jumper somebody's chicken with a cry with one conscription to and for real. from the cornell, officially,

we're really not remember that the candid legally announced that her job by a thumb and of course, all of the hostilities need to and shoot you an additional property catalyst. edible still hasn't received his conscription notice, but he doesn't want to take any risks. and with the winter, almost over there is no immediate need to leave. a little earlier dw corresponded natalia small and save our from our russian language channel, joined me here in the studio, she prepared the report you just saw. now looking at this report, some people are leaving. some people are hiding that some people are supporting, put in as well. how would you describe are the, the, the take, the view, the feeling that the russian society has about the war right now? i think one year after the beginning of the war, the majority is just very tired and desperate and doesn't want this to carry on. actually, the official numbers earth, they the there is the broadest big for point,

but there is serious 1000. this official statistics and official surveys independent researchers have own carried out their own survey, which suggest that only 20 percent are actually behind what's happening in ukraine . but a lot of people are not wasting their views or their opinions because of 1st of the consequences, the loss have been changed and actually the price of speaking out against the war is now really high, right? so it's very difficult to get a truthful picture of what russian society really things. but as, as report a said there are also people leaving people hiding and those, even those 20 percent and that support vladimir putin. it's not enough. or in order to, to win that war against ukraine, that russia is waging right now, which is why we see a new wave of mobilization is that it? well, now we have some reports that a lot of in some regions are fresh a new own. later as the conscription notice have been arriving to people to call

them to call them up to like check their documents and stuff. and, and human rights defenders are fearing they'll be new wave of conscription because people, one thing is to support the war in front of the television set. and another thing is to actually go there to the battlefield because we've seen numbers reports that people who've been sent to the war. they lack training and sometimes they just, you know, dying after several days a weeks there. so, you know, after seeing all this, nobody would want to go there actually voluntarily here, not voluntarily, but as you just mentioned, i mean, a lot of those that are, are sent to the war are not coming back. how high do you think does the death toll have to be for the mood to swing and for people who may not support the war now, but rather keep it to themselves to actually speak out. there were kind of hopes in the beginning of the invasion that the death tolls and once the coffins start arrived, to rush or people will go go to out of the street and protest the mother's waves.

we haven't seen that really because brace of protesting is really high. and sometimes when this or this news arrives, just don't have enough strength for this anymore. so i think put in actually can afford many more hundreds of coffins coming back home before a week and see the wave of protest. that's quite a grim scenario. there are natalia, a small ensuing, dw correspondents working for the russian channel. thank you so much for that. thank you. and he is a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. hope frances has updated a church law aimed at holding senior churchmen accountable for covering up cases of sex abuse. the pope extended it to cover lay catholic leaders. the law reaffirms that vulnerable adults can be victims of abuse when they cannot give consent. the u . s. reached agreement with germany and a dispute over phasing out sales of cars using fossil fuels by 2035. the band is
