The Russian army has a direct order to shoot civilians in Ukraine.
The video confession of such content of the detained aggressor was published on its social media pages by the Security Service of Ukraine(SSU).
On the first day of the war, his column was ordered to surround Kharkiv. All civilians who attempted to leave were shot. But when Ukrainian security forces approached the scene, and a fight broke out, two Russians came to the aid of the wounded woman. Their 'colleagues' didn't appreciate such a manifestation of humanity and opened fire on their own. As a result, a woman, and an officer were killed, and a soldier from the video was wounded in the leg. And he survived because he was taken away by the daughter of the murdered Ukrainian woman,” the SSU said.
The agency said that the detainee is an important witness to the invaders' atrocities, which are documented by SSU investigators and will be brought to court.
Earlier, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in summary as of 18:00 on March 7, reported that in the settlement of Myla of the Kyiv region, the division of Kadyrov's mercenaries fires at the civilian population.
