After 2 months of investigation w/ Vrai Ou Fake @franceinfo the identity of the Russian forces soldier who filmed abusive video mocking tortured & executed Ukrainian POWs placed on public display to terrorize locals, is made public for the 1st time today:
The individual who filmed the video on March 22 is Igor Miroshnichenko, call sign "Miron" on his Russian "LPR" military ID card.
Here is "Miron" filming himself at the alleged crime scene in Pervomaisk. Building behind, which is also seen on the abuse video, is the 'coal mining' HQ which the Russians commandeered as a base for local operations.
Contrary to popular belief, the 6th regiment (Cossacks) of the "LPR" which is under the command of Russia's 8th Combined Arms Army, is quite well armed. They even have an MLRS:
The two videos on "Miron's" Tik Tok page (now deleted) which placed him at the scene of the abuse video of seven (not six) Ukrainian POWs posted Mar 22 on Telegram
Original Tik Tok video post from March 25 which has been geolocated and verified as showing "Miron" outside the same building as seen at the crime scene of the POW abuse video he filmed posted on March 22
Who wants to see the full 2nd video at the crime scene which was the one on the audio comparison that was made public a few weeks ago?
Here's another video "Miron" filmed: It shows 16 bound Ukrainian POWs, some of whom are injured, being mistreated, beaten and taunted by Russian forces. A clip was shown in the TV broadcast. This is the full video.
⚠️WARNING 18+⚠️
You can see the Russian soldier punching one POW in the face
This is the culprit. We know who he is. Will not disclose his name yet.
French national broadcaster chose not to identify the Russian forces soldier "Miron", however identifying and naming him does not hinder any criminal prosecution for war crimes at @IntlCrimCourt and it is in the public interest for these alleged war crimes to be fully exposed.
