The UN says 15 journalists and activists, and 22 local officials in Ukraine have been arbitrarily detained or faced 'enforced disappearance.'

Speaking to members of the media via a video call from Western Ukraine, Matilda Bogner, who heads the UN's Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, said the detainments and enforced disappearances"seem to be a pattern that is occurring in areas that are occupied by the Russian Federation."

In a statement on Friday, Bogner wrote that 13 of the 22 Ukrainian officials who had been detained by Russian forces have been released. "We are also concerned by videos depicting prisoners of war being interrogated after their capture by both Ukrainian and Russian forces. Prisoners of war must be treated humanely, not subjected to acts of violence and protected against insults and public curiosity," it continued.
