For a month the two men could not tell their psychologist what had happened to them, only that it was horrible beyond words. “If there’s hell somewhere, it’s worse than that,” said one.
The Ukrainian soldiers, aged 25 and 28, had been in Russian captivity — one for one month, the other for three.
After their return in a prisoner swap they had been referred to Anzhelika Yatsenko, 41, a psychologist in Poltava who deals with troubled young men. They were suicidal. The younger one had tried to kill himself. “I knew from previous cases they had probably been tortured,” she said. “As someone who gets referred the hardest cases, mostly men under 35, it’s very hard to surprise me.”
When they finally told her, it was, she said, “the first time I behaved not like a professional psychologist”.
“I’d never heard anything so horrible. I told them I needed the bathroom and went and cried and cried. I didn’t want them to see as they might think there’s no hope.”
The two men had been savagely beaten. Then the drunken Russians castrated them with a knife.
“One of them told me, ‘I don’t know how I am still alive, there was so much blood, I thought I’d die of blood poisoning’,” she said.
“And of course it’s not just the physical damage. Imagine, they are young men just starting their sexual life and then in one second it’s all over. They still feel something, all these hormones, but they can’t do anything. They can never be sexually active. For a young man it’s the worst thing to happen.
“Their dignity has been damaged so badly and it’s impossible to forget. The Russians told them, ‘We are doing this so you can’t have kids.’ To me this is genocide.”

Did the OP ever come back? I kinda outed him as a Fed.
BS story.
Obviously, it goes much beyond the castration that occurs at the vet’s office.
Perhaps my morning's coffee is not strong enough, but.... Who is OP?
On a parallel line of thought, it is my take that there are some administrative state types working hard at FR to spin messages in a direction.
Unlike many of their fellow countrymen, at least they’re still breathing.
Their blood is on Biden’s hands.
I noticed the zerohedge censorship too when ai tried to post an article from them.
Why? Plenty of Leftist propaganda sites aren’t censored on FR.
what bs!
War prom for neocons to jack off to.
Urban legend? Fact? Who knows? Fog of War.
I thought the left was fine with castration, or is that only to confused children.
Then you are delusional
OP- Original Poster?
And how do you know?
I think it depends on who’s being castrated…
There's a joke told about killing thousands of people and one buxom blonde. Someone says, “why the blonde?” Answer: “See, you've already forgotten about the "thousands" killed.” So simple.
Same game as some on FR try to detail the Ukraine conflict date X instead of date Y, because the narrative changes thereby. Ditto with the climate change folks, when Michael Mann tried to prove his hockey stick from tree rings but refused to show the data. And others who game the stats over racial categories and crime statistics, because it all depends on the goal posts, and their being moved, whenever necessary. And "trust the science." Mine. Not yours.
If your kids run away to my state, the state will hide them from you, sexually mutilate them, send you the bill and the damaged kid back after they have mutilated it. Isn’t leftism grand! /sarc
Quick…more billions!
But .. but ... but they’re throwing babies on bayonets!!!
” but they’re throwing babies on bayonets!!!”
The Japanese really did do that. And worse.
Remember the testimony from the Kuwait royal, presenting himself as an ordinary Ahmed? Babies taken from incubators! Bush I launched a war, one recalls.
