This analytical review for April 2026 examines 16 testimonies concerning unlawful deprivation of liberty, enforced disappearance, torture, unlawful transfer, filtration, deportation and politically motivated persecution. The documented cases show recurring patterns of detention without legal grounds, concealment of whereabouts, violence, coercion, threats against relatives and prosecution by Russian or occupation structures. The findings bear indications of war crimes and may amount to crimes against humanity.

This document is important for confirming large-scale violations in the territory under the de facto control of the Russian Federation. It contains data on illegal searches, detentions, torture, coercion to cooperate, and oppression of representatives of religious communities (in particular Christians), confirming violations of Articles 12 (right to health), 15 (freedom of thought and religion), and 2 (non-discrimination). This source directly supports the submission's arguments regarding the targeted discriminatory policy applied by the Russian Federation in the occupied territories, particularly in the context of access to medical care, social services and freedom of conscience.
