(vezi tabelul anexat)

INFORMAȚII PROCEDURALE

După o examinare preliminară a admisibilității cererilor pe 4 decembrie 2025, Curtea a decis, în conformitate cu Regula 54 § 2 (b) din Regulamentul Curții, că notificarea cererilor ar trebui dată Guvernului Rusiei.

Se observă că aceste cereri privesc incidente care ar fi avut loc în zone sub controlul sau ocupația Rusiei în Ucraina, ridicând chestiuni complexe privind responsabilitatea unui stat pentru acțiunile agentului în teritorii ocupate.

Reclamantul Mykola Ivanovych Sotnichenko și ceilalți reclamanti susțin că au suferit încălcări grave ale drepturilor lor fundamentale, inclusiv dreptul la viață, dreptul la libertate și siguranță, și dreptul la protecția fizică de rând cu alte drepturi.

Prin notificarea acestor cereri, Curtea intenționează să colecteze observații din partea Guvernului Rusiei și să determine în ce măsură un stat ocupant are obligații sub Convenție cu privire la protecția drepturilor persoanelor din teritoriile ocupate.
