The Russian military showed their next crime – they impaled the severed head of a Ukrainian soldier
Russian soldiers from the 155th Marine Brigade of the Russian Federation showed a video showing a severed human head impaled on a stake.
They published the video online.
There is currently no exact information about the incident. It is likely that the Russian military could cut off the head of one of the killed Ukrainian soldiers.
Deep State writes that the crime scene is the Kolotylivka checkpoint in the Belgorod region. Approximately on August 12, there was an unsuccessful attempt by the Armed Forces of Ukraine to break through the defense of the Russian border.
Ukrainian military publications note that the 155th brigade of the Russian Federation is known for its large losses of military equipment and personnel. The Russians published the video of the war crime when Ukraine and the Russian Federation began negotiations on the exchange of prisoners. Previously, Ukraine captured hundreds of Russian soldiers in the Kursk region, while no war crimes against them were recorded.
Ukrainian military correspondent Andrii Tsaplienko also made this information public in his Telegram channel: “Today, the Russians showed a cruel and terrible video. On it is the severed head of our soldier and a Russian inhuman in a mask, who is represented as a marine of the 155th Russian brigade. He declares that Russian marines will do this to Ukrainian prisoners.
I do not publish the video out of respect for the fallen soldier. But I am publishing the reaction of the Ukrainian military to the act. Some of them say that the marines from the 155th will not be taken prisoner.
I think that this is exactly the reaction the Russians are trying to achieve.
The video with the dead Ukrainian was exhibited just against the background of the mass surrender of Russian soldiers. Millions of citizens of the Russian Federation see that Ukrainians treat prisoners humanely. The military sees it too. What it motivates to give up.
The Russians needed a “throw-in” in order to stop the mass surrender of prisoners and somehow explain to their own that, they say, the Ukrainians do not take prisoners.
So, let’s be smarter than the Russians, but also ready to punish war criminals.”
