David “Chemist” Kasatkin asked the Ukrainians not to call him a hero. In his opinion, he “didn't do anything heroic”.
So, “Khimik”, who defended Mariupol at the cost of his life and survived the blockade of “Azovstal” and Russian captivity, does not consider himself a hero. h2>
David “Chemist” stated that he was “only” performing his functions as a serviceman with a corresponding position. He believes that the real heroes died in Mariupol, or received this title. “Therefore, let's stop calling me that,” said the Azovstal defender.
He thanked the Ukrainians for their concern, but asked not to distribute the video with him, because everything is fine with him and his family and he does not need help. He urged citizens to remind more of his brothers who were still in captivity of the Russians.
Many more of my brothers remained in captivity, they need to be returned,” Khimik wrote.< /p>
In the comments, the Ukrainians began to thank the serviceman and emphasized that what every defender of Mariupol did was heroism. And the Chemist will not cease to be their hero, because everyone chooses heroes for themselves.
The commentators noted that they would not forget each defender and agreed that the topic of prisoners should always be on everyone's lips. So the dissemination of information about the prisoners will not stop.
Kasatkin responded to the reproaches of the Shari
Even when the serviceman was at Azovstal, propagandists began to spread fakes that Khimik had allegedly threatened cut off the head of Kadyrov's mother and rape his daughters.
Recently, the well-known Russian propagandist Tolya Shariy wrote a message in which he recalled this false story, calling David “Chemist” Kasatkin a “Nazi”.
The serviceman responded to the accusations of the traitor. He emphasized that he had never written such threats, and the screenshot that the Russians had distributed was a fake.
As a man, I would never hurt my loved ones in my statements, especially such way. The screenshot that was circulating on the telegram was fake, and this was evident in the inconsistency with the font of the telegram,” he said.
Recall that on September 21, Ukraine released 215 people from Russian captivity. 200 Ukrainian heroes were exchanged for Medvedchuk, who has already given all possible evidence to the investigation. And 5 heroes-commanders of “Azovstal” – for 55 Russian prisoners. Most of the released prisoners are the defenders of Mariupol. It was the largest exchange of prisoners since the beginning of a full-scale war.
However, many Ukrainians are still in enemy captivity. Not only the military, including the heroes of Azovstal, but also doctors and ordinary civilians.
