  • About Inferno:
    Exposing the Truth

    Inferno is a project dedicated to documenting and systematising open-source information about the conditions of POWs in Russian captivity. Our goal is to provide accurate, fact-based data to raise awareness of human rights violations and advocate for justice.

    We believe that truth must not be silenced. Our mission is to uncover the realities of captivity, ensuring the world does not forget the stories of those who cannot speak for themselves.
