[REGNUM] The servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not try to save their soldiers, to save the wounded is not in the rules of the Ukrainian military. One fact of such a betrayal was told by the assistant to the head of Chechnya for the power bloc, Apta Alaudinov.

According to him, the Armed Forces of Ukraine covered the place where the wounded sniper girl was with a flurry of mortar fire. She reported on the radio about her injury, asking to be evacuated. However, the answer of the comrades in arms was the fire from mortars on this square. This incident occurred, according to Alaudinov, in the area of ​​​​the industrial zone of the city of Rubizhnoye in the Donbass.

“When she said that she was wounded, unable to move and asking for help, they, realizing that they could not come to her aid, simply covered her with mortars and killed her. That is, their warfare technology is very peculiar, ”said Alaudinov, noting that if the wounded had surrendered, she would have remained alive.

#6  Aggression! A girl -- call her "Gretchen" --
In wounding, gives racist impression:
"Is Nazi," they said,
"Since she'd rather be dead
Than get taken alive by a Chechen!"

#5  First-ever Arclight mortar strike on a hidden sniper for whom no precise location could be determined, or this is baloney. Making the sniper a woman was a nice touch. I am sure half of each sniper class is female in Ukraine. Yes, there were famous female Russian snipers in WWII. I also know that there is a female Ukrainian politician serving. I don't believe this story; it doesn't make military sense.

#4  noting that if the wounded had surrendered, she would have remained alive.
Let's parse this: female, wounded, surrenders alone ...and is a sniper. Historically soldiers tended to kill snipers and rape women they catch alone so pardon me if I am suspicious of the chivalrous tone.


Russian are painfully aware of the case of Col. Yuri Budanov

#2  Maybe. And the same could be said of the Russians.also this claim is from the Chechens. So yeah pretty reliable info

I got the idea that this information was gleaned from radio intercepts. Both sides' comms are hopelessly compromised.
