The crimes of Russians in Mariupol
As Sergey Leshchenko noted, on the territory of ” Azovstal” now there are more than 1000 peaceful Ukrainian citizens. But the occupiers are trying in every way to lie about this fact.
The head of the troops of the so-called “DPR” Eduard Basurin was the first to lie about the absence of civilians at Azovstal. Then the fake was picked up by the Interdepartmental Coordination Headquarters of the Russian Armed Forces.
There are more than 1,000 peaceful Ukrainians who are under the protection of the military. Russia’s statements about their absence are an attempt to justify its aggressive offensive campaign,” Leshchenko said.
Russia is also dispersing the fake that the Ukrainian army, together with the SBU, is going to stage a provocation that intends to accuse the occupiers of the mass destruction of civilians. citizens in the Odessa region. Thus, the Russian Defense Ministry announced its intention to operate under a false flag in order to accuse Ukraine of its crimes.
