Ukrainian army released a tapped phone call between a Russian soldier and his mother. The soldier describes excited how he tortured and killed Ukrainians, and says he enjoys mutilating people. I have translated the calls in this #THREAD. Please be aware of extreme violence. /1

Son Konstanin: (It happed) in front of my eyes. I took part in this too. FSB officers tortured POWs. You know what little rose is?
Mother Tatyana: no
SK: you can grow 21 rose on a male's body. 20 fingers and 1 penis, sorry.
MT: ok
SK: have you seen a rose flower opening?
MT: yes

Son: (It is) the same. One cuts skin with flesh off, all the fingers. And later you do it there (on penis). This is what called 21 rose on a male's body. Do you know what other torture I have seen?
Mother: Why do you say you took part in this? There were FSB people torturing? /3

(cont) Son: Well, we captured POWs, we transported them...
Mother: Well
Son: And while we were waiting for the commanders of torture cells, we held POWs, we beat POWs severely, we broke them legs so they could not escape. /4

Son: So a POW seats, hip bones broken. I broke them. They are displaces. He says: "I don't care". But why are you afraid if you don't care? "I am not afraid!" And why are your crying? He shuts up. I love it so much, morally rape people, just with 2 words
Mom: You love?
S: Yes /5

Mom: I told you all the time, I try to control myself. If I were there (in Ukraine), I would enjoy it too. We are so alike, you and me.
Son: (A lot of emotional chaotic words, many slurs and bad language, describes his hate to Ukrainians)

Mom: Why do they try to resist? Don't they understand it is over?
Son: They get nothing
M: Because they are stoned?
S: We captured one civilian, the chief of torture chamber told. An old civilian, and he had all photos of our troops locations on his phone.
M: Such a scum, shit /7

Son: We were chilling around, and they brought us a POW, and he says: "They'll take 2 your lives for 1 mine". We were chilling around. And he says: "I don't care about death, I die for the right cause".
Mom: How?
S: He is shouting, and I say: "If you don't care, why so afraid?"/8

Son: We beat that old man to death, just with batons. To death. Can you imagine? How many times, how long it should take to kill a person just with a baton? It is normally used to discipline recruits. You beat a person and his organs explode. This is how FSB tortures here. /9

(cont) Son: There is another one type of torture, I have forgotten its name. A barrel? One puts a pipe into a person's anus, and puts a barbed wire through it.
Mom: Holy crap! /10

Son: It is crystal clear. I do not feel sorry at all. I have over 20 (killed), I am already calm.
Mom: They are not humans.
Son: I was a very kind person. Oh, how I want to tell you everything, so you will see how I have totally changed.
Mom: Bye-bye
Son: Bye-bye. /END

One need to say for those who were so shocked by the content, so the shock covered everything: it is a well-established state-organised system. It is not an "excess" of one or two sadists. It is organised by FSB secret police, like many torture camps before from Chechnya to Syria
