As reported, according to women who were held in Russian captivity, Ukrainian women are held by Russians on an equal footing with men - in cramped cells and without hygiene products. Some are not allowed to comb their hair or have it cut off altogether. Women are kept in basements and colonies, some are taken to Russia.
