War crimes in the Soviet–Afghan war

by A_Wake_

Hello everyone,

I'm currently doing some research on the Soviet-Afghan war. Now what I couldn't find, are details on war crimes or ruthless tactics used by the soviet army or speznas in Afghanistan. Like interrogation-tactics or terrorising the civilian population.

I know the sources for this are probably hard to find, but I'm thankfull for every information on this topic.

Thanks in advance!
