Azov Fighter Died In Russian Captivity

He defended Mariupol.

Ukrainian prisoner of war Oleksandr Ishchenko, who served as a driver in the Azov Regiment, died in pretrial detention center #5 in Rostov-on-Don. This was reported during a session of the Southern District Military Court in Rostov-on-Don, which is considering the case of Ishchenko and 23 other Azov soldiers, Mediazona reports.

The publication notes that the pretrial detention center did not have time to provide the court with documents confirming the man's death. The exact date and cause of death are also still unknown.

At the session on July 31, the court finished examining the evidence in the case, but did not proceed to the debate in order to wait for documents on Ishchenko's death from the detention center. The debate is scheduled for August 7.

Oleksandr Ishchenko was 55 years old and married. In the spring of 2022, he was captured by the Russians in Mariupol and later became a defendant in a criminal case as well as 23 other Ukrainians.
