Dear friends, please send an appeal, as below or in your own words, for Artem Kolomiiets, Ukrainian combat medic who has been held prisoner in Russia since May 2022, tortured, and is seriously ill.
A combat medic is a medical professional serving in the army and giving urgent treatment to the wounded.
Now he is being denied treatment for his own wounds, and tortured instead.
Thank you! --Guy and Tilly

Dear Human Rights Commissioner,
It is reported that Artem Kolomiiets, Ukrainian prisoner of war who is a combat medic, is held incommunicado in Perm. He has been tortured, and denied medical treatment. He is seriously ill and at risk of death.
Please ensure that Artem Kolomiiets is treated humanely, receives health medical care, and is released from captivity.
I look forward to receiving your reply.
Sincerely,

It is effective to send a copy to the ambassador in your country:

HE Andrei Kelin 
Embassy of the Russian Federation
6/7 Kensingston Palace Gardens
London W8 4QP
off...@rusemblom.org

HE Alexander Darchiev
Embassy of Russia

Washington, DC 20007
ruse...@mid.ru

Fuller information is in Amnesty International's Urgent Action
https://www.amnesty.org.uk/urgent-actions/respect-rights-injured-pow

Senior Sergeant Artem Kolomiiets was one of those captured at the end of the epic, tragic siege of Ukrainians holding out in the steel factory at Mariupol in 2022. He had been tending to the wounded. When captured, he was himself wounded, with severe spine damage and a torn knee. He received no proper treatment for these. Instead, has been tortured. He n ow has asthma and stomach and duodenal ulcers. He has been in captivity for over 1000 days. Perm is deep inside Russia, near the Ural mountains.

We are re-sending this appeal because (as Todd  Schwarz has reminded us) some countries at present have no postal service to Russia.

You can still send the appeal the easy way - by email - to the Human Rights Commissioner

Moska...@ombudsmanrf.ru

And you can take this chance to increase the effect by sending the sane to these two further email addresses given in Amnesty's Urgent Action:

A.Ovchi...@rightsrf.ru

A.Sche...@rightsrf.ru

Presumably they are other members of Russia's team of Human Rights Commissioners.


Let's do all we can for Artem, wounded rescuer of the wounded!
