Fate of 2,500 Ukrainian POWs from Steel Plant Stirs Concern
Newsmax ^ | May 22, 2022

Posted on 05/22/2022 8:02:09 AM PDT by Navy Patriot

With Russia claiming to have taken prisoner nearly 2,500 Ukrainian fighters from the besieged Mariupol steel plant, concerns grew about their fate as a Moscow-backed separatist leader vowed they would face tribunals.

...

The Russian Defense Ministry released video of Ukrainian soldiers being detained after announcing that its forces had removed the last holdouts from the Mariupol plant’s extensive underground tunnels. It said a total of 2,439 had surrendered.

...

Denis Pushilin, the pro-Kremlin head of an area of eastern Ukraine controlled by Moscow-backed separatists, said the captured fighters included some foreign nationals, though he did not provide details. He said they were sure to face a tribunal. Russian officials and state media have sought to characterize the fighters as neo-Nazis and criminals.

Newsmax is part of the Neocon xenophobe zombie parade.

They have become just another unwatchable TV news channel.

The Red Cross is on scene. The POWs have been registered. At least that’s what I read on the internet.

Russia has nothing to do with this. In fact, they offered the soldiers to surrender and have given them food and aid.

It is Ukraine that's keeping them there, because if any of them leave to accept Russia's offer, they would be shot to death. On orders from the dancing homosexual Globalist puppet Zelenskyy.

The Russians could parade them thru Moscow like they did German POW’s after feeding them Cabbage soup which acted as a natural laxative.

I don’t know why anyone is concerned about them. The New York Times, the Paper Of Record, the Grey Lady, reported that they have all been “evacuated”, presumably, to safety, because, why would they use that word if in fact they had been captured, or otherwise fell into harm’s way? It just wouldn’t make any sense.

“Fate of 2,500 Ukrainian POWs”

My understanding, based on Western Media, which never lies, is that Zelensky has ‘evacuated’ them, so I suspect they’ll simply be redeployed to fight the Russians elsewhere.

Russia will not accept release or trade of individuals affiliated with the ultranationalist ‘ neo nazi” military groups like Azov. DPR, civilian evacuees, and other informers have provided accounts of atrocities as well as identities. Some of these orcs were arrogant enough to post on social media. The Russians are screening those who surrender, looking for unit identification like neo nazi and nationalist tattoos.

These hard core far right militants will face war crimes tribunals in Russia for what they have been doing to civilians since 2014 and to captured Russian POWs. The fate of those advising them ( NATO officers) should be interesting.

I think I heard yesterday that Trump stole the election, ordered the January 6th insurrection, was a paid Russian stooge and that there were witnesses to it!

Ukraine routinely places their fortified firing positions and manpower in civilian structures which is, of course, a war crime. MSM routinely reports destruction of these structures as Russia targeting civilian areas like schools, hospitals, etc. never revealing, of course, that they were, in fact, military targets.

“May 9, 2022 — Sixty people are dead under rubble after a Russian bomb hit a school in eastern Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has confirmed.”

Of course, days later I read in alternative media that they removed the bodies of Ukrainian troops from the rubble. The MSM does not ever report those details.

The internet is filled with pictures of Ukrainian troops using schools as barracks.

So I found this new Rybar post very interesting. We will in the future, no doubt, read about the tragic destruction of some of these “kindergartens”, et al.

Rybar
🇺🇦 What does the Nikolaevsky fortified area look like?

When we say that in the regional administration of Nikolaev they are extremely negligent in the accounting and storage of secret documents, we do not deceive at all. Among all the rubbish that litters the desktops of Sienkiewicz and Kim , there are some really important documents.

And we share some of them with you: in a revised and easy-to-read form.

We put on the map of Nikolaev all the objects of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, territorial defense units and national battalions known to us. It turned out here is such a simple scheme.
