Ukrainian military intelligence identifies those involved in air strike on Komyshuvakha that killed 55 - Sybiha

Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha revealed on November 9 that Russia had transferred Ukrainian OSCE employee Vadym Golda to a medical correctional facility in Russia's Tambov Oblast. The move has raised concerns over Golda's health, both physical and mental. Sybiha warned that if verified, this would be the third OSCE staff member transferred from Ukrainian territory to Russia, in breach of the Geneva Conventions and potentially amounting to war crimes.

Golda, who worked for the OSCE's Special Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, has been detained since 2022. He was sentenced to 14 years in prison on espionage charges in July 2024 by a Russian-controlled court in occupied Donetsk. His last contact with family was on October 15, 2024. The two other detained OSCE staff members, Dmytro Shabanov and Maksym Petrov, received 13-year sentences for treason in September 2022 and were transferred to prisons in Russia in 2025.

Sybiha urged the OSCE Secretary General and Switzerland to verify the detained staff members' whereabouts and secure their release, emphasizing that all three must be freed now.
