"Russian human rights commissioner sent me photos of Oleg Sentsov. According to the information given to her, Oleg is physically active, he goes to watch TV, reads books, writes something from time to time. Everyone wonders how he can withstand. His condition is satisfactory," Denisova wrote.

The Ukrainian human rights commissioner added that "Oleg understands that people worry about him."

As reported, Natalia Kaplan, the sister of Ukrainian filmmaker Oleg Sentsov, who declared hunger strike on May 14, said his brother is in disastrous condition. According to her, Sentsov refused to be delivered to the Labytnangi civilian hospital as "he will not survive transportation, and in a civilian hospital in Labytnangi, where he had already been in intensive care, he is treated even worse than in the prison hospital."

As reported, Sentsov, illegally sentenced to 20 years in a penal colony, declared a hunger strike on May 14, 2018, demanding the release of all Ukrainian political prisoners of the Kremlin.
