Two Britons have been denied pardon, after being sentenced to death in a Russian-backed court

The leader of the Russian-backed Donetsk region has denied calls for immunity after two Britons Aiden Aslin and Shaun Pinner and Moroccan Brahim Saadoun were captured while fighting for Ukraine.

The court hearing was held in the self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic, which is one of Russia’s proxies in eastern Ukraine.

Meanwhile, Britain has slammed the court’s decision though as a “sham judgment”.

“I utterly condemn the sentencing of Aiden Aslin and Shaun Pinner held by Russian proxies in eastern Ukraine. They are prisoners of war. This is a sham judgment with absolutely no legitimacy.”

Foreign Secretary Liz Truss

Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s spokesperson says the prisoners of war are entitled to immunity.

British tragedy

Former British soldier, Jordan Gately, has been shot and killed while defending Ukraine in the city of Sievierodonetsk.

His family posted to social media saying he was a “true hero”.

“He loved his job and we are so proud of him, he truly was a hero and will forever be in our hearts.”

Ukrainian Presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak also paid tribute to Gatley in a Twitter post.

New reports suggest they have destroyed a major Ukrainian bridge that was responsible for allowing civilians to escape and the movement of military equipment.
