Russian forces are planning to begin public executions in an effort to break the morale of Ukrainians resisting their invasion, according to a European intelligence official who spoke with multiple U.S. news publications.
The unnamed official, who spoke to Bloomberg, said the Russian government has devised plans to erode the morale of the Ukrainian people, who for a week now have held out against a full-scale Russian invasion force. The plan reportedly includes cracking down on protests, detaining opponents of Russia, and even carrying out public executions.
Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin also tweeted that a European official told the news channel that Russia’s federal intelligence agency, the Federal Security Service (FSB), developed the plans.
“.@GillianHTurner and .@james_levinson report: A European Official tells FNC Russia’s Federal Security Service, their intel branch, has drafted plans to conduct public executions in Ukrainian cities once they have been captured,” Griffin tweeted.

— Jennifer Griffin (@JenGriffinFNC) March 3, 2022 In the past week of fighting, thousands of Ukrainian civilians have volunteered to take up arms alongside regular Ukrainian military service members. Ukrainian politicians, such as former boxing champion and Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, are among those civilians who have taken up arms to fight back against the Russian invasion.
One Ukrainian brewery also switched over from bottling beers to producing incendiary gas bombs, known as Molotov cocktails.
Other Ukrainian civilians have attempted to oppose Russia’s invasion forces by more peaceful means. Some civilians have formed human roadblocks, to prevent Russian military vehicles from being able to drive through. Ukraine’s main road maintenance and signage agency has also removed road signs in order to confuse Russian troops trying to navigate the country.
Needs to be confirmation. Too much uncertainty (anonymous source, not confirmed by a second source, etc.)
It will tighten the resolve of the Ukrainian people; they have guns where the people of the countries invaded by Germany didn’t.
Saw yesterday that Greg Gutfeld MIL finally got out of Kiev.
Agreed, and from reliable sources. I can see that being staged as well.
They plan to say the n word too.
Germans bayoneting Belgian babies.
Fog of war.
I get the fog of war.
But there is so much disinformation being flung about.
Nyet?................
Jennifer Griffin has been extremely hysterical about the Russia-Ukraine issue. She seems unstable. Perhaps she is a madwoman.
I doubt this very much.
This whole event seems like a good case study for civilian guerilla forces in the US if/when our government turns violent against the people...
> It will tighten the resolve of the Ukrainian people... <
Yes. And Ukraine itself provides an historical example of that. When the Germans invaded in 1941, they were mostly hailed as liberators. But Nazis being Nazis, they just had to terrorize the population.
A year later, angry partisans were taking potshots at German troops.
I have an idea!
Let’s just make hsit up because we know the idiots will believe anything!
Is there a legitimate source for this?
“Germans bayoneting Belgian babies.”
One of the many slanders from WWI.
Watching the demoncraps go completely hysterical almost makes up for it. Not quite, but it goes a long way.
Yes. The most ardent and effective partisans were Ukrainian.
