The Ukrainian leader and his American backers are guilty of shelling prisoners, Moscow insists
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky is personally responsible, along with the United States, for the fatal shelling of a detention facility in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), Russia’s Defense Ministry claimed on Saturday.
According to the ministry’s statement, a missile strike using US-made HIMARS multiple rocket launchers on a prison near the village of Yelenovka killed 50 POWs, while 73 were hospitalized with severe injuries.
The ministry added that the remains of 48 Ukrainian prisoners of war were found and extracted from underneath the rubble, while two inmates succumbed to their wounds on the way to a medical facility.
“All political, criminal and moral responsibility for the bloodbath against Ukrainians is borne personally by Zelensky, his criminal regime and Washington, which supports them,” the statement reads.
Earlier this week, Eduard Basurin, the spokesman for the DPR’s army, said that Kiev knew exactly where the POWs were being held, because Kiev “itself determined the place of detention.”
The DPR official also noted that the prison could have been targeted by Kiev in order to hide atrocities “after the Ukrainian prisoners of war began to talk about the crimes that they had committed on the orders of their commanders.”
The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed that the facility had held members of Ukraine’s Azov Battalion, whose fighters surrendered to Russian and Donbass forces during the siege of the Azovstal steel factory in Mariupol.
Kiev has categorically denied these allegations and claims Russia is responsible for the strike, saying that Moscow sought to blame Ukraine for committing ‘war crimes’.
Russia and allied forces have repeatedly accused Ukraine of shelling civilian infrastructure with various heavy weaponry, including HIMARS.
According to the Pentagon, as of July 22, the US has provided Ukraine with 16 M142 HIMARS systems, while the UK has delivered another three launchers capable of firing the same munitions. Last week, the Russian military said it had destroyed four of the rocket launching systems, a claim that was dismissed by Kiev as “misinformation.”

Zelenski also said that due to severe food shortages in the Russian Army — (due to brave Ukrainian soldiers puttin’ an ass whupping on those damned commies) — that these Russian soldiers are roasting the dead Ukies over an open fire pit and eating their flesh. Then, full satiated, these Russian soldiers go out and rape babies and quick freeze them for snacking later on.
All this has been verified by the CIA, FBI, DHS, Pentagon, and Kamala Harris.
You mean they’re not saying Russian soldiers are roasting Ukrainian babies, to eat them?
That Zelenksy guy and his propaganda team are getting soft!
Technically, the Rus are eating late term babies from the Ukie Planned Parenthood dumpsters that US taxes bought them.
I dunno, only looks bad for the Hunter-linked company that contracted to haul P.P. trash.
It is all on the level.
Get your 4th jab, some happy pills and a stiff drink.
There is no recession, the next check is in the mail.
Hussein and Hillary started this with the help of Victoria Nuland and John McStain. Biden and his boy made great gobs of money along with several other POS American scum. STOP PAYING TAXES TO THIS CRIMINAL ILLIGITIMATE GOVERNMENT RIGHT FUCKING NOW!
You first.
Let us know how it works out.
It’s workin just fine, thanks for asking. And he would be far from the first to do it…the utter cowardice of the masses not withstanding.
Understood, Anon, but ever increasing inflation is a hidden tax that gets extracted unless one lives like Theodore K. (I should know, heh heh.)
When we require of our system of civilization, that we have already purchased at enormous cost, to get off its butt NOW and deliver on sworn oath duties to identify and process notorious criminals and actual enemies, then we can all bring our various talents to bear on restoring this wounded Constitutional Republic, henceforth under We The People’s eternal vigilance.
For the personnel of all govt strata, we Americans have been remiss at keeping you in a pickle between our benevolent expectations from way down here against those, calculated to terrify, threats of the NWO from above you. I’ll spare y’all the link to the Freedom Isn’t Free song from Team America W.P. but things have gotten so out-of-spec that, these days, i find it inspirational.
