1 hour ago
Europe
Amnesty International has said it has evidence pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine summarily killed four Ukrainian soldiers in their captivity.
Witnesses told the group that one government soldier was shot at point-blank range by a separatist commander.
Amnesty also said it had videos of three others shown alive in captivity, then dead in a morgue with bullet wounds to their heads and upper bodies.

The killings are tantamount to war crimes, Amnesty said.
