OSCE envoy to visit captives in ORDLO in Aug

The humanitarian subgroup of the Trilateral Contact Group on Ukraine reached an agreement at its Skype conference on Monday that Toni Frisch, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) coordinator at the subgroup, would visit prisons in ORDLO in August.

"Among the important results is that we managed to agree that OSCE subgroup coordinator Frisch would visit prisons and hostages in occupied territories in August. We demanded an obligatory stopover at a Makiyivka penal colony, where our servicemen are being held, and also a visit to detained women," Ukrainian envoy to the humanitarian subgroup Iryna Gerashchenko said on her Facebook page on Monday.

The Ukrainian side reiterated the need to release Ukrainian journalist Stanyslav Aseyev (Vasin) held in Donbas, calling on Russian representatives to facilitate this, she said.
