Disturbing video shows the fiend callously driving his military motorbike down an empty road in Russian occupied Ukraine.
The Sun is choosing not to show the footage due to its barbarity.
Two of Vladimir Putin's men can be seen taking part in the fatal act as one sits on the bike and the other drags the PoW into position.
Moments later, aerial video captures the men driving away as the prisoner is taken along with them.
It is unclear exactly where the footage is filmed from.
It has now been blasted by Ukraine's human rights commissioner Dmytro Lubinets who blamed it on Putin's brainwashed invaders.
Lubinets said: 'A video is being circulated on social media: it shows a man tied to a motorcycle and dragged along the road.
'This is demonstrative cruelty and another war crime by the Russian Federation.'
He has contacted the United Nations and the International Committee of the Red Cross over the alleged atrocity which - if confirmed - amounts to a heinous war crime.
It would be a 'gross violation' of the Geneva Conventions and International Humanitarian Law.
Ukrainian PoW with says sick torture method left him begging for death
'Russia is acting like a terrorist state,' Lubinets continued.
'And it must bear fair responsibility for every crime.
'The Prosecutor General's Office reported on May 23 that 75 criminal cases involving the killing of 268 prisoners by Russian troops are being investigated in Ukraine since the start of the full-scale invasion.'
Throughout the conflict, Putin's men have been accused of carrying out brutal war crimes.
In January, Russian soldiers filmed themselves shooting dead six Ukrainian PoWs in cold blood.
Kyiv launched a criminal investigation into the murders and reported the sickening killings to the UN and Red Cross - insisting Russia cannot be allowed to so brazenly flout the laws of war.
The PoWs are seen lying face down on the ground in a wooded area next to a temporary hut.
'This one's mine,' says one of the executioners after demanding: 'Give me two machine guns."
And last October, a squad of Ukrainian drone pilots were executed by the Russians.
I was branded by Putin's men and left begging for death as a PoW
WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT
A UKRAINIAN prisoner of war who had the words "Glory to Russia" burnt on his skin has said he was left begging to die.
Following his release in a prisoner swap earlier this year, Andriy Pereverzev has revealed disturbing details of his time in captivity, including the sick torture method known as "Calling Putin".
The Ukrainian POW was captured in February 2024 on the battlefield after being severely wounded.
Despite his pleas to just "end it" and "finish" him off, Pereverzev was carried to an encampment where he was brutally tortured.
Speaking for the first time about his experience, Pereverzev told how he was mercilessly electrocuted by Vlad's troops seeking intelligence.
He said: "While they were carrying me. I kept asking them, 'Finish me off. Just end it, but they didn't.
"They used electric shocks on my open wounds a couple of times, and I started blacking out again."
As well as being horrifically beaten, the POW described how he had the words "Glory to Russia" burned on his skin whilst in captivity.
A disturbing photo emerged earlier this month showing the mutilated soldier.
Nine of the unmanned vehicle aces were filmed being shot dead after being stripped to their underwear.
Russia's dictator is also wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) after tens of thousand of Ukrainian children have been snatched by Russia in recent years.
It comes as fighting between Russia and Ukraine has continued to escalate - over three and a half years into the conflict.
One of Putin's top commanders was wiped out this week following the first Brit-made Storm Shadow blitz in months.
The deadly strike hit "the headquarters of the 8th combined arms army of the Russian Armed Forces" in occupied Donetsk - killing Colonel Ruslan Goryachkin.
Russia has unleashed deadly strikes almost every night in recent weeks as they look to steal away more land from Ukraine before agreeing to a peace deal.
The strikes came as Donald Trump's special envoy Keith Kellogg hit back at Putin over delays in the peace process.
Kellogg targeted the dictator's mouthpiece Dmitry Peskov as he slammed him, saying: "Peskov's recent comments on the state of negotiations are Orwellian.
'Russian claims that it is the US and Ukraine stalling peace talks are unfounded - President Trump has been consistent and adamant about making progress to end the war.
'We urge an immediate ceasefire and a move to trilateral talks to end the war. Russia cannot continue to stall for time while it bombs civilian targets in Ukraine.'

Macron and Putin discuss Iran in first call in three years
The French president, Emmanuel Macron, spoke to his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, for the first time in three years on Tuesday in an attempt to de-escalate the Iran crisis, as Tehran confirmed it was ending all cooperation with the UN nuclear inspectorate, including banning its inspectors from visiting any of its nuclear sites. Macron had refused to speak to Putin since the Russian leader ordered the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, but Paris has become frustrated that the lack of communication with Moscow is not solving multiple crises, and leaving the diplomatic events exposed to the relationship between Putin and Donald Trump. In statements after the two-hour phone call, a French spokesperson said Macron was left more positive about the possibility of Russia pressing Iran to restore cooperation with the nuclear inspectorate, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The French indicated a willingness to discuss the Iranian red line that it must have a right to enrich uranium domestically. One reason given by Iran for ending cooperation with the IAEA is the failure of the agency's leadership to condemn the Israeli attacks on its nuclear sites as a flagrant violation of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty. The German foreign ministry said Iran's decision to suspend cooperation with the IAEA sent a 'disastrous signal'. 'For a diplomatic solution it is essential for Iran to work with the IAEA,' German officials said. Berlin said it had been informed of the Macron call to Putin in advance. In an interview with Le Monde, the French foreign minister, Jean-Noël Barrot, urged Iran to cooperate with the IAEA. But he also said Israel's strikes 'are not in accordance with international law. They have certainly set back Iran's nuclear programme. But only a negotiated framework will allow us to permanently avert the danger.' He added: 'We support the resumption of US negotiations with Iran, but it is essential that our security interests be taken into account. European territory is potentially within range of missiles designed in Iran.' Asked about Iran's right to domestic enrichment he said: 'What is essential is that Iran cannot acquire a nuclear weapon under any circumstances.' French officials did not rule out Iranian domestic enrichment, as allowed in the 2015 nuclear deal. The Kremlin readout of the Macron-Putin call said: 'It was noted that respecting Tehran's legitimate right to develop peaceful nuclear technology and continue to fulfil its obligations under the treaty on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, which includes cooperating with the IAEA, was crucial.' It went on: 'The two leaders spoke in favour of settling the crisis around Iran's nuclear programme and any other differences arising in the Middle East exclusively via political and diplomatic means. They agreed to maintain contact in order to coordinate their stances if necessary.' Iran has been steadily moving towards freezing out the IAEA, making it harder for any independent assessment to be made of the scale of the damage inflicted on Iran's nuclear sites by the US and Israel strikes. On 25 June, the day after the ceasefire that ended 12 days of war, the Iranian parliament overwhelmingly voted for a bill suspending cooperation between Iran and UN agency. The law was then approved by the guardian council, the body responsible for reviewing legislation in Iran, before being ratified by the Iranian president, Masoud Pezeshkian. State media confirmed on Wednesday that the legislation had now taken effect. It is thought a small number of IAEA inspectors are still in the country. Asked about efforts to revive the postponed UN special conference on the two-state solution, Barrot said France was discussing a possible date as soon as possible with the conference co-chair Saudi Arabia. He said: 'There is an emergency. An emergency in Gaza, for the hostages and the Palestinian population. It is also urgent to restore a political horizon that alone will allow us to emerge from the permanent state of war and offer both peoples a response to their legitimate aspirations. 'The solution is more than ever undermined by colonisation in the West Bank, by the destruction in Gaza, and by a form of resignation on the part of the international community. The danger would be that this political solution comes too late.' Analysis by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz claimed Iran launched more than 500 ballistic missiles at Israel, most of which landed in open areas, throughout the recent 12-day conflict. Israel and the US intercepted the remainder with about 200 missile interceptors at an estimated cost of 5bn shekels (£1.1bn), according to an analysis of IDF data and open-source information. Data compiled by Haaretz from IDF reports over the course of the war shows Iran carried out 42 missile barrages, firing roughly 530 ballistic missiles at Israel. The IDF reported that during the 12-day conflict 36 Iranian missiles struck built-up areas, while air defence systems achieved an interception rate of 86%.

Pentagon reviews weapons exports to allies amid reported drop in munition stockpiles
The Pentagon has said that it is reviewing weapons deliveries to allies around the world as reports grow of concerns over dwindling stockpiles of crucial munitions including anti-air missiles. The announcement came after the White House confirmed that it was limiting deliveries of weapons to Ukraine to 'put America's interests first following a Department of Defense review of our nation's military support and assistance to other countries around the globe'. Those weapons were believed to include both offensive precision munitions such as Himars long-range missiles, 155mm artillery shells, and defensive Patriot anti-air missiles that are crucial for defending Ukrainian cities and energy infrastructure from Russian missile attacks. The Kremlin strikes have been condemned by most western leaders, including Donald Trump, who last week told a Ukrainian journalist that he would look for ways to deliver more Patriot missiles to Ukraine. Instead on Tuesday, deliveries of Patriot missiles and other munitions were reported to be halted because of a Department of Defense review inspired in part by the expenditure of hundreds of US interceptor air defense missiles, which were used to help protect Israeli cities as well as Qatar from Iranian bombardments during last month's war. On Wednesday, the Pentagon confirmed that its review of exports of US weapons could affect countries other than Ukraine, according to Sean Parnell, a defence department spokesperson, who said the review was ongoing. It was not clear if this could include Israel, which buys 68% of its foreign-sourced weapons from the US. Parnell's remarks came during a briefing in which he defended the review and pause in delivery of munitions to Ukraine but declined to discuss which specific munitions were being held back. 'A capability review is being conducted to ensure US military aid aligns with our defense priorities, and we will not be providing any updates to specific quantities or types of munitions being provided to Ukraine, or the timelines associated with these transfers,' he said. 'We see this as a common sense pragmatic step … to evaluate what munitions are sent and where. But we want to be very clear about this last point. Let it be known that our military has everything that it needs to conduct any mission anywhere, anytime, all around the world.' On Wednesday, Kyiv warned that a halt in shipments from the US would weaken its ability to defend against intensifying airstrikes and battlefield advances. Sign up to Headlines US Get the most important US headlines and highlights emailed direct to you every morning after newsletter promotion Ukraine said it had called in the acting US envoy to Kyiv to underline the importance of military aid from Washington continuing, and cautioned that any cut-off would embolden Russia in its war in Ukraine. 'The Ukrainian side emphasised that any delay or procrastination in supporting Ukraine's defence capabilities will only encourage the aggressor to continue the war and terror, rather than seek peace,' Ukraine's foreign ministry said. The review was said to be carried out under secretary of defense for policy Elbridge Colby, who leads a group of foreign policy thinkers who believe that the US should redirect resources from Europe and the Middle East toward combating the threat posed by China. The so-called prioritisers have powerful allies in the Republican party, including vice-president JD Vance, who has been a prominent critic of US aid to Ukraine. 'For a long time, four years under the Biden administration, we were giving away weapons and munitions without really thinking about how many we have,' said Parnell. 'I think that this president was elected on putting this country first and defending the homeland and then you couple that with … a shift to the Indo-Pacific. Part of our job is to give the President a framework that he can use to evaluate how many munitions we have and where we're sending them.' Reuters contributed reporting

Foreign leaders could be barred from visiting Britain if their governments refuse to help tackle illegal migration
FOREIGN leaders could be barred from visiting Britain if their governments refuse to help tackle illegal migration. A secret letter from the Foreign Office orders ambassadors to ramp up pressure on countries blocking efforts to stop the boats. Diplomats have been told to use visas and official visits as leverage. The internal memo, seen by The Sun, warns: 'Some of what we will need to consider will require us to challenge our current approaches.' Ambassadors have been ordered to 'use the levers of our bilateral relationships more creatively to drive cooperation'. It comes after migrant Channel crossings this year to date surged past the 20,000 marker in record time piling pressure on Labour to get a grip. On Tuesday, another 440 made the journey, the Home Office said. Yesterday, amid chaotic scenes in Graveline, France, a desperate mother with her child was seen pleading with traffickers to let her aboard a dinghy. Last week, security sources warned that Russia was pushing migrants to the UK to overwhelm border defences and sow division. Vladimir Putin's smuggling gangs. More than 18,000 have arrived in dinghies so far this year — and opposition MPs said the crossings should now be declared a 'national security crisis'. Senior security sources warned The Sun that foreign powers are backing or exploiting smuggling gangs in a bid to destabilise Britain. Also last week, Nato recognised illegal migration as a key threat to national security — by ruling that border protection can count towards every member's defence spending targets for the first time. Just 299 migrants crossed the Channel in 2018. The highest year for arrivals was 2022 at 45,774.
