Mass murder of prisoners of Azov. The cause of the explosion in Olenivka was the Russian thermobaric weapon - Prosecutor General

“I want to already report that the preliminary findings of our international experts say that the means of this murder was a thermobaric weapon. These are preliminary conclusions of several international experts, ”he stressed. Kostin denied the statements of the pro -Kremlin media that the colony was allegedly struck. “This is definitely not rocket firing. Experts are sure of this, ”he said. Russia committed a mass murder of the Azov captives in the colony of Olenivka on July 29.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces reported that in this way the Russian Federation wanted to blame Ukraine of committing war crimes, as well as to hide the torture of prisoners and executions, which were done by orders of the occupation administration and command in the temporarily occupied territory of Donetsk region. GUR argued that the explosions in Olenivka were carried out by mercenaries of Wagner PVC (League) under the personal order of the nominal owner of the PEC Yevgeny Prigogin.

According to GUR, the explosions occurred in the area of ​​the industrial zone in a newly built room, which were specifically equipped for prisoners of war. Some of the defenders of Ukraine were transferred there two days before the tragedy. The SBU has published an interception of a conversation confirming that the Russians committed a mass murder of prisoners of war in a colony in Olenivka.

They added that, judging by the video from social networks, the windows completely survived the windows - this may indicate that the epicenter of the explosion was inside the destroyed building. According to the preliminary video analysis, traces on the walls were likely to remain after the "internal source" of the explosion. On June 6, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that there are more than 2. 5 thousand defenders of Mariupol from the Azovstal plant in Russian captivity.
