Some of the horrific crimes committed by the Ukrainian Army against Donbass civilians, my documentation
DONBASS NEWS (formerly the DPR MFA) posted the below two days ago: Many horrific crimes are committed by the Ukrainian Armed Forces against peaceful civilians. Here are some of them:
Since I was in Donetsk during most of the Ukrainian war crimes listed in their post, and I documented the horrific, tragic, massacres of civilians there when Ukraine repeatedly struck non-military, civilian, areas of the city, I decided to share that here.
In 2022 alone, I saw the mangled remains of at least 20 Donbass civilians torn apart in various Ukrainian shellings of civilian areas of Donetsk.
Following are some of my documentation of the aftermath Ukrainian terrorist attacks [*Warning, videos & articles show dead civilians]:
-The March 14, 2022 terrorist bombing killing 22 civilians. (I was there two weeks later, and wrote about how Western media also there deliberately omitted any mention of this Ukrainian terrorism or of the Ukrainian terrorism against the Donbass the 8 years prior, in spite of the remnants of shrapnel still on the street near the very visible impact point, and the moving photo memorial still at the site).
-The April 28, 2022 Ukrainian shelling of a busy western Donetsk marketplace, killing 5 civilians. [Odysee] [article]
-The July 30, 2022 Ukrainian firing of shells containing hundreds of Petal mines onto central Donetsk and all over the city & surrounding cities/towns. Filming the streets, sidewalks and parks the next morning was surreal: even with signs or other indicators, it was incredibly difficult to spot the mines. [For my videos on these mines, see this Telegram post with collection of video & articles links, or my blog page linking all of my Donbass articles & videos]
As of last November, at least 169 civilians have been maimed by them, three of whom died of their injuries.
I also met some of the civilians maimed by the Petal mines Ukraine fired, including then 14 year old Nikita who stepped on one while walking through a playground on his way to his grandmother’s.
-The August 4, 2022 bombings, which killed a young ballerina & her world-famous former ballerina teacher, and which also hit directly next to the hotel I was in at the time, killing a woman next to the hotel & blowing the windows & doors in. Three more civilians were killed in nearby streets and sidewalks. [Odysee] [Telegram] [article]
-The September 17, 2022 Ukrainian shelling of the very centre of Donetsk, killing 4 people. [Telegram] [Odysee]
-The September 19, 2022 Ukrainian shelling Kuibyshevsky district of Donetsk, killing 9 people there (and 4 people in another district that same day). The bodies were unrecognizable, torn to pieces. *Warning: footage I took at the site is very graphic. [Telegram] [Odysee]
-The September 22, 2022 Ukrainian shelling next to Donetsk's central market, killing 6 people, including two in a burned out bus. *Warning: footage I took at the site is graphic. [Telegram)] [Odysee] [article]
-The April 28, 2023 Ukrainian shelling of central Donetsk which killed nine civilians – including an eight-year-old girl and her grandmother. The victims were burned alive when the minibus they were in was hit by a shell. [article] [Telegram]
