a senior Russian officer suspected of having participated in the Boutcha massacre

A few days after the massacre and the abuses committed in Boutcha, Ukraine, the collective of Ukrainian activists, InformNapalm, accuses Azatbek Omurbekov, a Russian lieutenant-colonel, of having commanded the men who committed these acts. Last October on Russian television, the latter presented military equipment. Before his departure for Ukraine, he was photographed alongside an Orthodox priest who had just blessed his battalion. In this town of Boutcha, the bodies of 300 people, some of whom were said to have been executed, were found.

In the streets of Boutcha, we see the scars of the passage of the Russian army. Residents worry about the mines left behind by the Russians. Nikita and her mother lived 32 days in hiding in their apartment, without water or electricity and under Russian fire. An international investigation should open in the near future on the acts of war which took place in the city. The UN announces that this is the next step.
