Russia to hand over evidence of Ukrainian Armed Forces' brutality to international organizations
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] The Russian Foreign Ministry has information about the shooting of civilians in the city of Selidovo in the Donetsk People's Republic by Ukrainian soldiers. The "shock content" will subsequently be presented at meetings of various international organizations, Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Foreign Ministry Rodion Miroshnik said on November 25.

"We will definitely demand some actions from them. Another important direction is that we will provide these data to those countries that are ready to adequately perceive the facts related to Kiev's violation of international humanitarian law. Thank God, there are quite a lot of them," the diplomat commented in a conversation with TASS.

Miroshnik emphasized that the Ukrainian military indiscriminately shot civilians they encountered on the streets of Selidovo. The stories of this from the evacuated townspeople are being recorded. The Ukrainian Armed Forces, apparently having fun, opened fire even on townspeople coming to get water, Miroshnik added. It is known that people were also shot in their homes.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on October 29, Russian troops liberated Selydove from the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The city is located 40 km northwest of Donetsk and is of great strategic importance, since Selydove was home to one of the largest Ukrainian fortified areas.

Russian security forces noted that Ukrainian soldiers mined houses and social infrastructure facilities while fleeing the city. They also left behind caches of weapons that they wanted to use for sabotage and terrorist purposes.

According to a local resident, the Ukrainian Armed Forces shot a woman in the knees and left her to die before retreating from Selydove. Ukrainian soldiers, he added, also killed six of his acquaintances who were pumping water for people. Their bodies were found on the street near five-story buildings. Other civilian corpses lay on the boulevard.

Resident of Selidovo: Ukrainian Armed Forces and mercenaries began shooting people before the arrival of the Russian Armed Forces

"There were Poles from Ukraine, maybe some punitive troops. I don't know what orders they were working under, but they all had the same uniform. Literally in two days they started killing people. Maybe they felt that Russian troops were coming in," RIA Novosti quoted him as saying in a conversation with the Russian Foreign Ministry's Ambassador-at-Large for Crimes of the Kiev Regime Rodion Miroshnik.

According to an eyewitness, Ukrainian militants entered apartments where they shot families with children, pensioners and women, after which the bodies of the dead lay on the street until the arrival of Russian troops.

"It was only later that they allowed the bodies to be buried. These (militants of the Ukrainian formations. - Ed.) did not allow it. People were basically afraid to go out [on the street]," he added.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, earlier on November 25, Miroshnik said that the Ukrainian army had arranged a "bloodbath" in Selydove, trying to repeat the provocation in Bucha. According to him, evacuated residents of the city told about dozens of civilians killed by Ukrainian soldiers on the streets of the city.

Before this, an eyewitness said that Ukrainian militants killed and burned five members of his family in Selidovo. The man managed to escape because he left his house at that moment.

A resident of Selidovo reported on November 22 that a Ukrainian plane had carried out an airstrike on a nine-story residential building, which burned down completely. According to him, "bad, lawless" actions by Ukrainian troops were taking place in the city.

On October 29, the Central Group of Troops of the Russian Armed Forces liberated Selidovo. Earlier that day, the settlements of Gornyak, Dobrovolye, and Katerinovka were liberated in the DPR.
