In the summer, the russians executed four Ukrainian soldiers at the Vovchan Aggregate Plant.
russian prisoners of war told about the execution during interrogation. Investigating such crimes is usually difficult due to hostilities that make access to evidence difficult. But this case is unique - a person who can become a suspect is now in Ukrainian captivity.
If the russian is proven guilty, he can be sentenced to life imprisonment.
▪️Ukraine released the Vovchan aggregate plant in Kharkiv Oblast on September 24.

⚠️Warning: Sensitive content Real content from Ukraine. Russian soldiers are executing captured Ukrainian fighters in Niu York (a village in the Donetsk region)
A drone captured the moment of this brutal crime by the occupiers. The Russians shot three unarmed Ukrainian soldiers from a neighboring unit at close range.
Later, fighters from the 12th Special Purpose Brigade "Azov," together with the 49th Separate Assault Battalion, captured one of the occupiers responsible for this atrocity.

The conclusion.The OSINT has identified, the Russians confirm, that it was not a Su-25, but a heavy strike UAV S-70 "Okhotnik" that was shot down.
Mission gone wrong
The Russians have announced the start of its serial production this year. Currently, according to them, it is undergoing testing. Apparently, the Russian command decided to shoot it down so that it would not fall into Ukrainian hands intact.
However, it still fell on Ukrainian territory, and, of course, its wreckage will be of interest. @ukrainejournal
