The Russian invasion of their country has forced all manner of difficulties on the Ukrainian people, with everyday life overturned for millions of people.
One aspect of the invasion has been the creation of a vast filtration system, which has caused detentions, interrogations, and forced deportations for hundreds of thousands of — if not over a million — Ukrainians.
One of those Ukrainians was Ihor Talalay, who has testified to his and others' experiences of harsh interrogations, squalid conditions, and arbitrary detention by Russian forces. He spent three months in the filtration system in the Donetsk region and has spoken out about what's happening to the Ukrainians who enter the system, and what life is like when you emerge from it.
