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.

Since 2022, we have interviewed 462 witnesses of enforced disappearances, arbitrary detentions, and crimes against the civilian population, including shelling of civilian infrastructure, appropriation of private property by the occupiers, and unlawful deprivation of liberty. As of the end of February 2025, information has been found on 310 civilians who were arbitrarily detained by representatives of the Russian Federation or groups controlled by the aggressor country, 22 of whom were identified during the processing of testimonies in February 2025.
