Disturbing video footage has been circulating on Telegram, depicting a Russian soldier holding up the severed head of a Ukrainian soldier, impaled on a stake. This shocking act has been reported to the United Nations by the authorities in Kyiv, who consider it a war crime. Sources say that the incident took place near a Russian border point in Belgorod region, where Ukrainian troops attempted to break through the Kolotilovka checkpoint but were unsuccessful.
In the video, the Russian soldier can be heard addressing the camera, saying, "The dead men of the 155th Brigade of the Pacific Fleet salute you, Khokhols." It's worth noting that "Khokhols" is a derogatory term used by Russians to refer to Ukrainians. The soldier goes on to make a chilling statement, "You have made an unforgivable mistake, stepping with your filthy pig hooves on our holy land. Today, some of you have had your heads blown off by our pressure, and the same fate awaits you every time we meet. The dead have no pity, the dead know no fear. The dead are coming for you, Khokhol."
The disturbing footage has caught the attention of Dmytro Lubinets, Ukraine's human rights commissioner, who has reached out to the UN and the Red Cross for assistance. He believes that the enemy is using these videos to intimidate and demoralize Ukrainians. However, this only fuels their determination to hold those responsible for such inhumane acts accountable for their actions.
It's still unclear how the Ukrainian soldier was beheaded, but it's evident that the Russian soldier used a derogatory term towards Ukrainians. The soldiers responsible for this heinous act are said to be a part of Russia's 155th separate marine brigade from the Pacific Fleet. According to Ukrainian intelligence, this brigade has been involved in numerous atrocities, including the killings of civilians in Bucha, Irpen, and Hostomel in the Kyiv region.
On the same day that the gruesome video was filmed, another video surfaced, showing Ukrainian troops making a daring attempt to crash through the border in a Kozak-2 armored vehicle. However, the vehicle was stopped by concrete barricades known as "dragon's teeth" and was subsequently destroyed by a drone strike. Some of the Ukrainian paratroopers did manage to escape from the vehicle, but reports suggest that they were later eliminated by the Russians. This is just another example of the ongoing conflict between the two nations and the brutal tactics being used by the Russian forces.
