Russian servicemember executed Ukrainian civilian in occupied Donetsk Oblast
A Russian Armed Forces serviceman cynically opened fire from an ambush set up in a ruined building and killed the passerby with an automatic weapon.
The offender was tracking the locations of the Defence Forces in the hottest area of the frontline - Pokrovsk- for the aggressor.
The enemy was planning offensive operations using super-heavy guided bombs and all types of artillery.
The main task of the agent was to go around Pokrovsk and the surrounding area, taking pictures of the positions of Ukrainian troops. Most of all, the enemy was interested in the coordinates of fortifications, reserve command posts, and ammunition depots of Ukrainian troops.
He was a 34-year-old electrician from neighbouring Myrnohrad who was waiting for the full occupation of the region.
To recruit the racist supporter, the Russian game engaged his classmate, who is currently fighting against the Defence Forces in eastern Ukraine.
