Sick person, Russian soldier in Ukraine Sergei Zhuk with callname 'Moskva' mocking international justice



In this video Sergei Zhuk demonstrates how Girkin (Strelkov) and Pavlov (Motorola) are NOT on Interpol's wanted list, but Yarosh is:




This is some serious international Russian trolling. How did they managed to get Yarosh on the Interpol list? The biggest crime he has done is that the Russians used his business card when they killed some local Slavyansk people in a set-up ambush to convince the civilians that the Nazis where coming:



That was as fake as can be (if you did not get that point right away).

But Sergei Zhuk himself is a torturer of Ukrainian POWs:

In this video Sergei Zhuk forced a POW to shoot his comrade (if only there was a bullet in the pistol):




In this video he is interrogating 'cyborg' POWs from Donetsk Airport, trying to convince them that they better shoot themselves:




In this video he is blaming Ukrainian POWs for shelling of civilians, showing them their mutilated bodies (WARNING VERY GRAPHIC CONTENT):



Yet it was very clear that this shelling was done by the Russians themselves, since it was more then 10 kms from the front line. See this blog.

Sergei, knowing this, uses it for heavy psychological pressure.


In this similar video it can be seen that many of these POWs face have been beaten:


Screenshots from this video:














And yet another interogation video by Sergei:




These videos had been posted on his own Youtube-channel and VK-profile:




But he later removed them. He said that he had more videos, but had only posted the ones that were 'approved'. Can you imagine what's on the others?


Some information on him can also be found on this website.


Conclusion
This Russian soldier(!) fighting in Ukraine is one sick person, trying to break the spirits of POWs and torturing them physically, spiritually and emotionally. He himself should be put on the Interpol wanted-list...



Thanks to @cttmario for finding a lot of information.

Medical examinations confirms POWs near Krasnyi Partizan were shot at point blank

In this interview of Hromadske TV Oleg Kotenko, who is the coordinator of the Volunteer Group 'Patriot', talks about executions of Ukrainian POWs by Russian( proxie)s.



Woman
You dug up and took out the bodies that were buried 2 months near Donetsk.



Oleg
We learned about this story that buried three soldiers in the cemetery near the airport, we checked out. 2 times tried to take out, but came under fire, had to go back. After the second time was taken and brought to Dnepropetrovs for examination. got 3 of the body. previous month ago took out the body cyborg Igor Bronevitsky, he was also a prisoner, was also shot. The Internet was 2 times a video on how he was in captivity and he is alive, but then it just killed and left the airport. His body was taken to Dnepropetrovsk and mother identified his body.



(Read about the execution of Igor Bronevitsky in this blog: Motorola can officially be considered a war criminal now.)


Woman
Oleg you said that it was still 4 people that are most likely too were shot at a checkpoint Krasnyi Partizan.



Oleg: Yes, 2.5 months ago we got a call from Father Dmitry asked for help to take of 4 bodies of our soldiers. We agreed. When we arrived, it was not in the Krasnyi Partizan, and the top Troitsk, near the village is located. it was divided into 2 parts, the demarcation line was not there on both sides of the armed men went. It was a dangerous operation.



Father Dmitry crossed the bridge with another volunteer and went to meet with the rebels and got the 4 bodies. At that time we did not know that they were shot, it turned out later. Medical examiner confirmed that these 4 people were shot at point blank range with a sniper rifle.



Later, a month later, those people who have been with these guys were released. We have agreed to exchange, there was an exchange and they told at the hospital as there was an exchange. There was a girl of 20-21 years and asked the warlord if she could shoot at Ukrainians. He said yes. She executed 4 guys. One of them was lucky, with the surname Stepanov. He was wounded, they thought he was dead, but he survived. On one of the exchanges he was released.



Woman
So you are aware of eight soldiers being shot dead in captivity.

Oleg
We are not experts, it is then we learn from the medical examiner, that these people were shot at point blank range.


Blog about these executions: GRAPHIC - WARCRIMES Russians execute Ukrainian POWs south of Krasnyi Partizan
Also see: Ukrainian POW witnessed execution of his friends at Krasnyi Partizan


See now there are THREE independent confirmations about the execution of these POWs. First our own investigation. Second: the witness of the soldier that was there. Three: medical examination of the bodies.

Motorola can officially be considered a war criminal now.

Because the Ukrainian 'cyborgs' defended Donetsk Airport for more than 240 days against the Russian invaders and caused hundreds of losses among them, they are especially hated.

On January 20th Donetsk Airport fell and remaining Ukrainian cyborgs were captured as well as some reinforcements arriving.

Many people have seen the disgusting video with 'Givi' and all main Russian media showing how they had captured a lot of them after collapsing the terminal with explosives upon the last defenders.
It was already argued right there that some of them had been tortured, shot and mutilated after being captured:
(media deliberately not shown; VERY graphic)

This video shows Igor Branovitskiy (first guy in blue sweater) as well as other POWs:



Here Igor is alive, although lightly wounded.

On February 16th there were still frozen bodies laying around at Donetsk Airport as @alextomo showed:
Since the hands of those were tied together, this sparked a discussion about them being executed:
But since they tie hands of dead people too for easier transport and since the cause of death could not be established, it was difficult to prove.

Later a graphic video appeared where the corpses had clear headshots, which convinced me of them being executed:

Then we saw reports and photos of still living POW cyborgs forced to recover their dead comrades which as a war crime in itself.
Mototrola aka Arseny Pavlov, being a commander was watching while they carried out the criminal orders:
And he has been quoted like this:
On April 3rd  a report came in where journalist Anastasia Birch and head of the main investigation department of the Security Service, Major-General Vasily Vovk said to have evidence that 'Motorola' had killed Igor Branovitskiy (seen alive as POW before).



He had been captured on January 20th and publicly shot dead after being tortured:
This video from Graham Phillips shows Igor being captured, but WITHOUT wounds in his face:


So it is clear that he got these wounds AFTER being captured, e.g. he has been tortured.


Kyiv Post has a detailed account of what happened. Cyborgs Yury Sova and sergeant Anatoly Svyryd witnessed Motorola killing Igor.

Also Kyiv Post had recorded Motorola saying: “I don’t give a shit about any accusations, believe it or not, I've shot 15 prisoners. I don’t give a shit. No comment. I kill whoever I want.”

Conclusion
It is confirmed now that the Russian occupants executed at least one cyborg POW from Donetsk airport in front of others. But this also confirms the suspicions we always had about all the other bodies that were found at Donetsk airport with the hands tied.
Moreover... Motorola/Arseny Pavlov can officially be considered a war criminal from now on.

Ukrainian POW witnessed execution of his friends at Krasnyi Partizan

(This blog is a translation of this article)


Tied-up, the half-dead Cyborg is kneeling at the barrel of an assault rifle. "Look, ”Dill”, look up ..." – the enemy’s voice accompanies a powerful blow in the back. In front of his eyes the Ukrainian soldier sees his friends - those who have long been his brothers and whose lives are about to be interrupted - 0ne shot, two, three ... blood ... The end ...
A terrible unreal scene of our soldiers being shot, the hellish scenery of war, all is still in front of Cyborg Dubrava’s eyes. Almost every night he sees that scene again and again in his nightmare ...

August 26… Vitaly Dibrov was invited to the Army Recruitment office in Dnipropetrovsk. In his civic life he is a guard, a beloved husband and father. With tears in her eyes Vitaly’s wife escorts him to the war and two-year daughter says: "Dad, come back soon, I'll wait for you ..."
In a few days he will be in a real hell. Fifty-four days of fighting in Donetsk airport. There was no respite there. Constant attacks, death of friends, it seemed that the universe was being destroyed. Psychological, physical and mental exhaustion was felt more and more. Not everyone is able to stand such pressure.

Once he unwittingly became a witness of his ‘hell shop’ friends’ conversation: “If we had not formed a friendship the Ukrainian Army would have already collapsed. We are kind and friendly people and we have to cling together”. Lately he has been recalling those words a number of times.
January 22 in the village of Krasny Partizan twenty of our soldiers are holding two posts. At about nine o'clock the first shot are heard. In a moment the bullets of "saushok" and multiple rocket launcher systems of the Russian terrorists are trying to wipe out Ukrainian soldiers as well as civilians from the land of Ukraine.
Our guys stubbornly hold their positions. The first, second, and third volley... the enemy’s shooting back is even more ferocious. The forces are unequal. Ten meters from Vitaly a shell brakes. Shot by a tank .. fire, dust, darkness in front of his eyes and terrible pain ... by shock wave his crippled body is thrown away in a hole ...

Consciousness returned to him only after a few days. Contusion, crippled hand ... swollen, cold as ice feet. "Thank God, the phone works" - the guy thought. Vitaly was moving towards his friends according to SMS - adjusting. The fighter will probably never forget that difficult way back. Passing minefields, overcoming terrible pain, going through the darkness of a frosty January night, on bent legs, with a small flashlight he lighted up his path. Suddenly he saw a house with the thrilling light of a candle in the window. Looking into the window, Vitaly saw an old man, who was looking at the icon and silently cried. Somewhere nearby he could hear voices of an enemy patrol. He knew that his entering the house can be too risky for the old man. As it is known, terrorists do not spare those who hide so-called “Banderovets” or a “slaves-owner”, So he decided not to stop but keep on walking. He went to the road.
“Just not to be noticed" - flashed in his head. And suddenly: “Stay still! I told you! - Shaken up shots of the four automatic guns, - Weapons on the ground! Quickly! Next shot for you!”
January 28. Captivity. A cage of 2 by 2 square meters. In a bowl there is barley porridge, in a glass there is drawn water ... A pool of blood on the floor ... Interrogation, torture, beatings. Almost every day he was taken to be shot, twisted arms and legs. Information was literally knocked by telling the following words: “"Gunner, you must pass the card to us ..." He got back with a smile and half dead silence.

Then according to the daily schedule was watching movies. Not just movies but special, psychological ones. Two to three times a day that violent video was broadcasted by local militants to form their rage and hatred towards Ukrainians. Fantastic abomination of a number of anti-Ukrainian dirty surrealism about raping women, eating children destroys their brain every day. Performances of terrible morbid fantasy seemed even worse than raving madman. He has never seen such dirt... in his mind involuntarily flashed: "Of course, this is where rage to all Ukrainians come from. I feel sorry for you. Are you sick people and you have nothing sacred ... "

February 5. On behalf of "DNR" jeep with a siren, bus, eight cars, each with one captive and two militant guards. “Get Up! We are leaving you alive for your courage and fortitude. " Shaking hands, pulsating thoughts ... But the main thing is that he is returning home as his daughter begged him to do when he went to the war…

Russians use cluster munition to attack city of Artemivsk

Four videos showed the attack:



This video shows how the rocket explodes at high altitude releasing the bomblets:



Scared to death residents seek shelter at the walls of a church:



This video records actual impacts:



Three of the videos can be geolocated like this:


In video #1 it can not very clearly be seen where the impacts hit. It seems to me that it's rather more to the left in the view than in the middle.
Where the views cross (red lines) there, the impacts must have been. It is partly houses and partly fields and forest.

These photos show an unexploded bomblet:





Conclusion
Clearly cluster munition has been used. 
Clearly it a residential area has been hit. 
Clearly it has been shot by Terrorussians.
Any questions?


In this article @Olesolvang reports about the attack. Even though it is OBVIOUS that the attacks of Kramatorsk and Artemivsk are executed by the Russian side, their is NO specific condemnation of the Russians.

What we do find is this:


They documented Ukrainian use of cluster munition in Donetsk. Well they did NOT. They ASSUMED it, but did not prove it AT ALL.

Then Ole says:


He documented the use "in both areas". Thus avoiding putting blame to any side. 
Also he INCORRECTLY uses the term 'rebels'. See for instance this blog.

Then he DOES mention three attacks on 'government-controlled' towns:


But... not putting blame to anyone here!
Then the 'rebel'-areas are mentioned:


It is an improvement that Ole calls them 'Russian-backed rebels' now. But this is still incorrect, because it does not acknowledge that Russia is destabilising Ukraine in an attempt to keep it away from the EU and in an attempt to grab land to create a land-corridor to Crimea, which it annexed earlier on.

He is not putting blame here either.
He ends with:


So what do we have?
Ole AVOIDS putting blame, but STARTS with putting blame to Ukraine (since he had documented the Donetsk attack) and he ASSUMES/SUGGESTS that when an area is controlled by one side it is being bombed by the other side.

Netto result: he DOES NOT directly blame Russia, but he DOES blame Ukraine again (for an unproven thing).

Well thank you very much Ole and HRW. You managed to do it again. Even though it is SO OBVIOUS AS CAN BE that Russia bombed Ukrainian cities with cluster bombs, you managed to blame the victim again over the aggressor.

Why don't you just go home?

And one thing you just guys just completely FAIL to understand: Russia is bombing Ukrainian cities to destroy them! IT DOES NOT MATTER whether these cities are Ukrainian controlled or Russia occupied. Do you understand that? They don't care... In ALL cases these are Ukrainian cities and they bomb them.

But more important: Russia HAS TO BOMB Ukrainian cities and villages THEY CONTROL THEMSELVES, otherwise they can not film bloody victims for Russian TV and blame Ukraine for it! Because they can not film the victims they make in Ukrainian controlled areas. Do you understand this too?

So Ole... open your eyes for what is REALLY going on here, or just go home. Otherwise you are part of the problem instead of the solution.

UPDATE 14-2
Two more videos appeared:

Kramatorsk attacked with Smerch BM-30 300mm rockets

Kramatorsk has been attacked:



This is the point of view:



In this video you can hear the terrifying sound of the attack:



Photos of aftermath:







These are Smerch rockets:




This map shows that #Kramatorsk is WELL WITHIN range of Smerch missiles (max 90 kms).


Earlier Uragan MLRS launchers had been spotted in Khartsyzsk. See this blog.




Determining directions 
Wikimapia link to address Lenina str 43.


It's at an angle of some 45 degrees relative to the wall of the house.
On the map:


The angle and direction at which this rocket is pointing is not reliable, because it likely hit (branches of) the tree first.



This tweep says SE:

Unfortunately there is no way to check this at the moment, so it's unconfirmed.

This video:

 Location and direction:


The problem with this one is also that it is in the middle of five trees, so direction is not very reliable, because it may have hit something first.

Here is another one:



All five on a map look like this:


The yellow line is the direction coming from Khartsyzsk, what was reported to be the launch location.

Three ? and the two without ? point in different directions...!
I may have a made errors somewhere of course. Please let me know if you see one.

But it seems to me that after delivering their payload, Smerch-rockets maybe twist downwards and may hit the ground it different angles. This may be due to the fact that body and engine disconnect and the front of the engine catching wind, so it may start to twirl.

If that is true, it means that ANY direction determined on a single impact is highly unreliable in the case of Smerch-rockets.

But even so, it does not need to be unclear that the RUSSIANS shot at the Ukrainian military airfield and meanwhile hit civilians targets too.


Tweep @falcius comes with a good suggestion:
That definitely makes this one point in the SE direction too.


Tweep @novostidnua provides another way of determining direction. Somehow he got hold on or made a map of all impacts:


RED marker = dead/wounded
BLUE = damaged bldg
GREEN = unexploded shell
The oval shape of impacts determines where they came from:


The yellow line is the middle line and it is approximately the same as the yellow line coming from Khartsyzsk.

It looks like the airfield had been attacked SEPARATELY, which is consistent with the reports of ANOTHER attack after the first one:

Smerchs had been spotted driving in Makeevka:

Aftermath on the airfield:




UPDATE
Somebody had witnessed the launch of Smerch rockets and posted the location on facebook:


Link to Google maps.

His message on autotranslate:


This is VERY consistent with everything else presented here, so this is highly likely true.


UPDATE 12-2
CCTV footage has been released of the impacts of cluster munition in Kramatorsk:
