KYIV, Ukraine — Russia’s Supreme Court on Tuesday declared Ukraine’s Azov Regiment a terrorist organization, a designation that could lead to terror charges…

Scores of Azov fighters are being held by Moscow since their surrender in mid-May. Russian authorities have opened criminal cases against them, accusing them of killing civilians. The addition of terrorism charges could mean even longer prison sentences.

Moscow has repeatedly portrayed the Azov Regiment as a Nazi group and accused it of atrocities, though no evidence to back up those claims has been made public. In May, Russia’s Prosecutor General’s office filed a motion to designate the regiment a terrorist organization.tap here to see other videos from our teamThe regiment, a unit within Ukraine’s National Guard, has a checkered history.

Last week, dozens of Ukrainian POWs, including defenders of the Mariupol plant, were killed in an explosion at a barracks at a penal colony in Olenivka, an eastern town controlled by pro-Russian separatists. Moscow and Kyiv have blamed each other for the blast, with Kyiv saying Russia blew up the barracks to cover up torture against the POWs.

The Razoni, which set sail from the Black Sea port of Odesa on Monday with more than 26,000 tons of corn, was expected to reach Istanbul early Wednesday for inspection by Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish and U.N. officials. More ships from Ukraine are expected to follow.
