The Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine reported that for the first time since 2022<\/strong> The Ukrainian side handed over Russian military personnel to a foreign state - Lithuania<\/strong> to prosecute war crimes.<\/p>\n \u00abBeatings, torture with electric current, strangulation, keeping people in metal safes and other horrors - he did all this together with other soldiers of his unit,\u00bb the Prosecutor General's Office said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n According to the investigation, a serviceman of the Russian armed forces participated in the torture of civilians on the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine<\/strong>. \u00abHe could be imprisoned for life for his actions,\u00bb the prosecutor's office said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n This step was a historical precedent for international legal cooperation<\/strong>, The agreement demonstrates Ukraine's readiness to act within the framework of international law and engage partners in punishing those responsible for war crimes.<\/p>\n Lithuania has previously opened more than 100 criminal proceedings<\/strong> regarding war crimes committed by the Russian military in Ukraine, but this case is the first one where the accused is physically transferred to a foreign state<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Ukraine actively cooperates with International Criminal Court (ICC)<\/strong> and partner countries to collect evidence of crimes committed by Russian troops. \u0406\u0441\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0438\u0447\u043d\u0435 \u0440\u0456\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f \u041e\u0444\u0456\u0441
