Ukrainian Troops Have Killed Hundreds of People As They Attempt to Flee to Russia

Rodion Miroshnik told the news agency TASS on Friday that Ukrainian troops have murdered hundreds of civilians attempting to flee conscription and war by crossing the border into Russia. Miroshnik, who serves as the Russian Foreign Ministry’s ambassador-at-large for the Kiev regime’s war crimes, said that all of the cases had been documented and verified through both testimony and video evidence.

“There are hundreds of cases. There are instances where people were shot while trying to cross the [front] line, bombarded with drones, attacked,” the diplomat said, according to a report by Pravda. “There were cases where Ukrainian forces went through the basements of houses and threw grenades at people, as a preventive measure,’ he said. Such tactics, seen in the towns of Avdeevka, Selidovo, and Dzerzhinsk in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), left areas “completely cleared” of civilians, he added. The same happened in Chasov Yar, a key Ukrainian stronghold liberated by Russian forces two weeks ago.

The diplomat argued that under international conventions, Ukraine is obligated to investigate alleged war crimes and hold perpetrators accountable, but claimed that Kiev is unlikely to do so and that its Western backers will not apply pressure.

In June, the Russian Foreign Ministry accused Kiev of deliberately exterminating civilians in Donbass, including mass killings of the elderly and drone strikes on residential buildings.

Russia will not overlook any crimes committed against the civilian population in violation of international humanitarian law, Miroshnik stressed. –RT

Miroshnik also stated that Russia will be looking for the extradition of Ukrainian war criminals. The country has already noted that around 108,000 criminal cases have been opened and roughly 500 individuals have been convicted, including some in absentia.
