A revised Russian penal-system programme proposes building seven large new prison facilities capable of holding more than 20,000 inmates by 2035, according to Ukrainska Pravda. One of the planned facilities is a multi-regime prison in occupied Kherson Oblast. The plan highlights Russia's continued institutional entrenchment in occupied Ukrainian territory and raises concerns about the treatment of detainees, including Ukrainian civilians and prisoners of war, held in facilities built under Russian administration.
