MOSCOW, November 14. /TASS/. Ukrainian lawmaker Alexander Dubinsky claims that in 2022, Ukraine had a bona fide "concentration camp" right in Kiev, which was operated by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU).

"We’re saying that between February and November of 2022, an SBU concentration camp existed, which processed over 300 people," the opposition politician said on a video posted on his Telegram channel. "This concentration camp was organized by SBU Head [Ivan] Bakanov and his first deputy [Vasily] Malyuk. This camp was operating right beneath their office at 33 Vladimirskaya Street, and was involved in the unlawful detention of different kinds of people."

"That is, these people were simply snatched off the street and brought to this facility - right to the SBU main office in Kiev - where they were tortured to extract confessions. I now hold in my hands testimonies from witnesses that passed through this concentration camp," he said.

Dubinsky is an independent lawmaker. In 2020, he was subjected to US sanctions for publishing audio recordings that compromised Joe Biden; later, he was excluded from the pro-presidential "Servant of the people" party. In November, he was arrested under charges of high treason and he is currently being held in detention. Previously, he repeatedly underscored that Kiev must start negotiating with Moscow in order to save lives and the future of the country. Meanwhile, he believes that Vladimir Zelensky and Andrey Yermak will do everything in their power to keep the conflict in Ukraine from ending.
