A sickening debate took place on Russian state television as panellists argued over how Brit fighters should be executed in a scene that was more akin to medieval times.

British citizens Aiden Aslin, 28, and Shaun Pinner, 48, were captured in Ukraine after travelling to fight against the Russian invasion.
