Abstract:
On March 14, 2025, a Finnish court sentenced Russian mercenary Voislav Torden — formerly known as Yan Petrovsky — to life in prison for war crimes committed during Russia’s initial invasion of Ukraine in 2014. A panel of three judges unanimously convicted Torden for his part in the ambush, murder, and mutilation of Ukrainian soldiers and the dissemination of harmful images online.[1]
