There are pictures in the media of cages being built in Mariupol's philharmonic hall, really massive cages and apparently the idea is to restrain the prisoners.” Russian-backed authorities had warned that they would try POWs before the end of summer—a process that the UN already worries would be a war crime, if the OHCHR is not allowed to monitor the trials.
