Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited[[Regnum] Prosecutors of the Arkhangelsk region demanded that the court recognize the crimes of the fascists in the region as genocide. This was reported on February 20 on the official website of the Prosecutor General's Office of Russia. During the Great Patriotic War, Nazi aviation and navy attacked the cities and villages of the region. Fishing factories, polar stations and ships of the Northern Transport Fleet also suffered from bombing and shelling. At least 19,000 people fell victim to air raids and starvation. The bombing of transport, railway infrastructure and residential areas of Arkhangelsk and Molotovsk (Severodvinsk) region caused damage, which, translated into the current exchange rate, exceeds 700 billion rubles. It is noted that the prosecutor's office prepared the statement together with law enforcement agencies, archival and educational organizations of the region. In support of the stated facts, an evidence base was presented, including archival documents. “The application was filed with the Arkhangelsk Regional Court in order to protect the national interests of the Russian Federation, the rights of the relatives of the deceased, as well as the subsequent dissemination to the world community of information about the victims of the invaders during the Great Patriotic War, and the restoration of historical justice,” the Prosecutor General’s Office states. As previously reported by the Regnum news agency, on February 18, the North Ossetian prosecutor's office demanded that the crimes of the Nazis in the region be recognized as genocide. During the occupation of Ossetia, which lasted from October to December 1942, the Nazi invaders tortured and killed civilians, simultaneously destroying the republic's infrastructure. More than 2,300 people fell victim to the crimes of the Nazis in Ossetia, shot by the occupiers and killed by enemy air raids and artillery fire. More than 1,600 people were forcibly deported to Germany. The total material damage to the republic is equivalent to 2 billion rubles. Posted by: badanov 2025-02-21 |
