Russia sentenced the captured Ukrainian to 24 years in prison.

The court in the DPR sentenced Ukrainian soldier Oleksandr Malovychko, accusing him of killing a resident of Mariupol. The Russian occupiers sentenced him to 24 years in a strict regime correctional facility. The city council reports that Malovychko defended Mariupol from the Russian occupiers who destroyed the city and killed many people.

This is not the first Time that the Russian Federation sentences Ukrainian soldiers. Earlier, Vladyslav Plakhotnyk and Pavlo Zaporozhets were sentenced.

The court in the DPR also sentenced three other Ukrainian soldiers on unproven charges.
