Claims of a Ukrainian ‘torture chamber’ went viral. What really happened?
Claims by a woman posing as a paramedic that conscripted men were being tortured in a house near Kyiv went viral, triggering clashes between police and a crowd of up to 500 people. Ukrainian officials say the incident was staged — the woman, Valentyna Moloda, has been arrested and is being held for 60 days without bail, while the house was used by the Azov Brigade to hold apprehended deserters.
