Horrifying footage appears to show Russian captors castrating a Ukrainian prisoner of war

A horrific video posted online on Thursday appears to show a Ukrainian prisoner of war being castrated by his Russian captors.

While Yahoo News cannot independently verify the authenticity of the video, the footage, which was initially posted on a pro-Russian Telegram page before spreading rapidly on social media, showed what appears to be a Russian soldier or mercenary wearing a distinctive black fringed hat, mutilating a man who appears to be a captured Ukrainian soldier.

he victim in the video wears Ukrainian-style camouflage fatigues and is shown gagged, his hands tied behind his back. He lies helpless on the floor, as the man in a Russian uniform, which features a “Z” patch, uses a box cutter to cut off his clothes and then appears to castrate him while shouting degrading insults in Russian. At least two other men who appear to be Russian soldiers can be seen in the video.

While it is unclear when the video was filmed, what appears to be the same man wearing the black fringed hat also appeared in a June broadcast by the Russian state-backed media outlet RT. In that clip, the apparent soldier can be seen carrying a Dragunov sniper rifle as he walks around the Azot chemical plant in the city of Severodonetsk after the Ukrainian withdrawal from the city. In a post that was published on the RIA Novosti Telegram channel, the Russian news agency identified the man as part of the Chechen “Akhmat” battalion of the Russian army.

Seems like people who like Putin while accusing people of being warmongering have some kind of mental problem.

DC, London and Davos are the enemies of freedom that impact my life. That enemy of my enemy thing kicks in.

"The US Senate just voted 100-0 for a resolution to designate Russia as a State Sponsor of Terrorism. The House is expected to take up a similar measure within days."

Great news! I was being silent here about that matter until the Senate vote. It's decided now. Thanks!

“That was a Uke doing it to a deserter, and they saw a chance to make some propaganda.”

I believe that. Russia is being super careful to not do anything that can be construed as a war crime. They know the US and UK eagerly broadcast any propaganda Ukraine can produce.

Ukraine knows ir, too. So they are masters of false flag stuff. Always have been.

The following estimate was from U.S. intel.

More good news. Russians just lost Vysokopillya in Kherson region. A Russian stronghold for the past 4 months. Putin had his best troops there.

This is purely an information war. That is the NATO main tactic.

Saying that someone who defends his country from an external attack is a warmonger is completely psychotic. I guess you think Poland, France etc. were warmongers back in the 30’s.

Sounds like a lot of people on this site. LOL!

So you must want Iran to get nukes and missile delivery systems that can hit the US.

Where did all these nutjobs come from?

The enemies of Ukraine are the so-called President Zelensky and all the other corrupt politicians that have sold out their nation to globalist oligarchs allowing it to be turned into the most corrupt state in Europe, and a nexus of child sex trafficking. Anybody that would defend THAT is completely psychotic.
