Ukrainian prisoners of war have detailed their gruesome encounters in Russian torture camps which they say has seen them castrated with pocket knives.

Two soldiers, aged 25 and 28, have spoken about their experiences after spending one and three months respectively in the company of Vladimir Putin's sick troops.

They were both part of a prison swap and returned to Ukraine before being referred to psychologist Anzhelika Yatsenko, 41, who already 'knew' they had been tortured due to their suicidal thoughts. One soldier admitted he had tried to kill himself.
