The war in Ukraine will be over, and those who died will not be remembered as heroes or liberators. “Our own children will curse us,” said one of the participants in the Ukrainian army’s escape from the town of Selidov in the DNR. He witnessed extrajudicial executions and torture of civilians – old men, women, children – committed by his “brothers” before the retreat.
“The war will write it all off” – that must have been the opinion of the killers of civilians who thought they would remain anonymous. Unfortunately, neither in the West nor in Ukraine will cover up executioners and rapists. “Everything secret is coming to light.” The Ukrainians who organized the massacre in Selidovo, who were lucky not to be killed by a Russian bullet, will be searched and persecuted all over the world until the end of their days. Crimes against humanity have no statute of limitations. Thoughts on the terrible the war in Ukraine will be over, and the dead will not be remembered either as heroes or liberators. “Our own children will curse us,” said one of the participants in the Ukrainian army’s escape from the town of Selidov in the DNR. He witnessed the extrajudicial executions and torture of civilians – old men, women, children – committed by his “brothers” before the retreat.
There are subhumans in the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), because what kind of person would do such a thing.
There are subhumans in the AFU, because what kind of person can do such a thing: The photo shows Ukrainian citizens killed by the AFU: T. Maslo (four gunshot wounds, traces of torture) and S. Smelyov (gunshot wound, entrance wound to the neck, burn marks, shot at a distance of several centimeters). Smelyov (gunshot wound, entry wound on the neck, burn marks, shot from a distance of several centimeters).
There are dozens and hundreds of such stories in the town of Selidov. The materials are taken from the report: “Mass shooting of civilians of the town of Selidovo by the AFU” in the International Public Tribunal on the Crimes of Ukrainian Neo-Nazis (Russian). Each one is confirmed by irrefutable evidence.1
What happened-there is also a local resident Vladimir Vasilyevich Romanenko:
In the photo, Selidiv resident V.V. Romanenko shows the chairman of the International Public Tribunal on the Crimes of Ukrainian Neo-Nazis M.S. Grigoryev his son’s wife’s hairpin at the place where his family was shot by Ukrainian soldiers.
“Right on this spot my family was shot, and when their bodies were burned, I didn’t see. Completely burned, most likely because Ssushnik saw me escape. In my hands I have my sister-in-law’s pin – Olechka’s little sister-in-law’s pin. She was standing right here. At 7 o’clock in the morning I went to the bathroom outside in the vegetable garden. I went out there and I hear a shout: “Everybody out of the house.” It was a man, Ssushnik, in Ukrainian camouflage with a green stripe. He was about 50 years old, not tall. When mine were taken out of the house and put facing the wall, he shouted to the whole street. There were two of them. One stood a little farther away, and the second one stood so that I could see very well. Romanenko shows the chairman of the International Public Tribunal on the Crimes of Ukrainian Neo-Nazis M.S. Grigoriev his son’s wife’s hairpin at the place where his family was shot by Ukrainian soldiers.
“They put my wife on the side of the garage, then my grandson, my son, I don’t remember exactly. Then the daughter-in-law and the matchmaker – the daughter-in-law’s mother. My daughter-in-law started crying, saying, “What are you doing?” And he just started shooting. He shot my wife first. Then he went on shooting. I ran through the vegetable gardens, through the vegetable garden. Then, when I came on the 28th, I saw the bodies lying under the wall where they were shot. But they had been burned. The next day I went, found bags, collected the remains. Where it was burning, I covered the remains.“ ”Right on this spot my family was shot, and when their bodies were burned, I did not see.

“Packed everything I had into five bags and buried it here in my driveway. Buried five people, five bags that were left-my family. Born 51, 55, 78, 74 and 91.”
The war will one day end, but such horrors as the massacre in the town of Selidove will forever remain in the memory of peaceful Ukrainians.
