In March 2022, Martynov in Borodianka near Kyiv personally led the capture of almost 500 civilians hostage.
Russia sent Kadyrov's ally and war criminal Daniil Martynov to Turkey “to help” in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake.
Screens with Martynov , who was presented as an “adviser to the head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia”, appeared in the Russian media.
The publication “Channel 24” suggested that Martynov's real task is to kill one of the Chechen leaders who received asylum in Turkey, or “hunt” for some local officials who influence the support of Ukraine.
The publication also suggests that a detachment of Russian “rescuers” led by Martynova can commit sabotage in Turkey.
Who is Daniil Martynov
In the summer of 2022, the SBU announced that Ramzan Kadyrov and two of his subordinates, Daniil Martynov and Hussein Mezhidov, were guilty of war crimes.
Recall that more than 4.5 thousand people died as a result of a terrible earthquake in Turkey. Over 26,000 more were injured. Two Ukrainians from the Turkish city of Hatay, who were considered dead, were rescued from the ruins.
In addition to Turkey, Syria also suffered. Cyprus, Egypt and Lebanon also felt the aftershocks.
