Please don’t learn from this. Jail and prison are synonymous in most of the English speaking world. The article also doesn’t use the word jail and the English wikipedia article on Prison in Ukraine uses “jail” as a synonym for “prison”. As far as I know “jail” as specifically pre-trial remand is a strictly American thing, and this didn’t happen in America.
English is not my native tongue and TIL that jail and prison mean two different things
You really never stop learning!
