Ukrainian males experience sexual torture in Russian detention centers: UN
The UN states the most of reported cases of sexual violence against men occur within detention centers, the majority of which go unreported as a result of stigma.
According to a UN agency, sexual violence against Ukrainians by Russian operators in detention remains fairly undocumented due to the stigma and the notions associated with “perceived emasculation” that come with the crime.
According to the UN Population Fund, the official Ukrainian statistic of 114 men who have been subjected to sexual violence since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 is probably an underreport .
