Pro-Kremlin neo-Nazi militia inciting the torture and murder of Ukrainian prisoners
The Guardian ^ | October 2, 2022 | Mark Townsend

A neo-Nazi pro-Kremlin group active in Ukraine is inciting atrocities against prisoners of war and explicitly advocates the torture of captives including “removing body parts”. The self-styled “Task Force Rusich” is fighting in Ukraine on behalf of the Kremlin and is linked to the notorious Wagner Group mercenaries.

A message on Rusich’s Telegram channel sent on 22 September advocates the “destruction of prisoners on the spot”.

Adam Hadley, executive director of Tech Against Terrorism, a London-based initiative supported by the United Nations, said: “Rusich, an openly neo-Nazi group highly likely operating on behalf of the Kremlin, has promoted the commission of war crimes in the conflict.

“Despite Putin’s claims, the actions of Rusich in the conflict demonstrate the concerning prominence of neo-Nazi groups committing atrocities on behalf of the Kremlin.”

Rusich fighters, known for their brutality in Syria and the 2014 war in Crimea, have been spotted on open sources in Ukraine’s Donbas region, Kherson and in the Kharkiv region.

The US Treasury department announced on 15 September that it was taking economic measures against Rusich, which it linked it to the Wagner Group. It described Rusich as “a neo-Nazi paramilitary group that has participated in combat alongside Russia’s military in Ukraine”.

And then the only explicit evidence of torture is by the Ukrainian see so far. Proudly produced and uploaded by themselves.

Maxim Tucker @MaxRTucker

As part of new sanctions against Russia, the US took action today against Ochur-Suge Mongush, identified as the Russian soldier who castrated a captured Ukrainian PoW. Cites his "involvement in a gross violation of human rights perpetrated against a Ukrainian prisoner."

there’s multiple examples over the years of Russian atrocities

so this would be right in keeping with Russia’s repeated pattern of behavior

whatever, Ukraine is liberating more territory every day from the monsters, so we’ll probably soon have more examples to show you

Putin, several of his crooked-crony ministers, and some of his field commanders can probably be expected to be indicted on UN War Crimes charges pretty soon

Vlady won’t be going to any more G8 meetings after that

I need a snapshot of what goes on in a feeble mind when you post pictures that prove nothing. You do it frequently.

So which side has the most nazis?

Only one side is massacring civilians, deporting hundreds of thousands of children from their homeland, and conquering and aggressively assimilating another state’s sovereign territory. One doesn’t need to look far to know who the true “fascists” are in this war.

The irony in this is that the true Nazi behavior is entirely on Putin’s part. His justifications for invading Ukraine have been Hitlerian, as he pushes Big Lies about ethnic Russians being allegedly persecuted in this or that region of the Ukraine. Amazingly, he claimed they were being targeted for “genocide” by the Ukrainian government. This is exactly what the Fuhrer charged against countries like Czechoslovakia and Poland in the late 1930s.

In fact, when you saw the title of this article, you probably thought I was referring to just that. But no, the Hitler-like actions are being committed by a Russian authoritarian who simultaneously levels charges of “Nazi” behavior at the Ukraine and its (for the record) Jewish president, Zelensky. Go figure. by Paul Kengor

If The Guardian says it, then it must be true!

Who cares what people ‘describe’ in the new brave 1984 world?
Video evidence produced and uploaded by known perpetrators is what you have to trust.
It relates to Bucha full well.

The neo Nazi’s in Ukraine are the Ukrainians.

The left wing guardian is flipping the script, and you are so ignorant and falling for it hook, line and sinker.

Your profile is convincing but your comment is negating.
