It is not news that numerous violations of human rights are recorded in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. However, the fact that the labor of persons with limited physical capabilities is used here, as slave labor, crosses all permissible limits.
They are often forced to work overtime without consent. Moreover, the invaders use such people on weekends, and of course there is no question of double payment for hours worked.
This is not only a violation of the basic rights of persons with disabilities, but also an outright humanitarian crisis that threatens their physical and mental health. This category of people needs a special approach and support from society, but the occupation authorities think by Soviet standards.
Therefore, there is an immediate need for the intervention of international public organizations and humanitarian agencies to protect the rights of people with disabilities in the temporarily occupied territories.
Such practices must be stopped and the relevant perpetrators brought to justice before an international court for crimes against humanity.You can also report crimes by the occupation authorities to the anonymous chatbot at this link.
