That is why this morning is very tough for me mentally.
Because of indefinite cruelty and violence is what Russia is all about.
This man, Evgeny, was a Russian prisoner of war in Ukraine.
These are last seconds of his life. I know him and talked to him.

This guy was an actual prisoner, recruited by Wagner group to fight Ukrainians.
He had his term because of murder, and seen that as opportunity to run from prison to Ukraine - at least that’s what he said to me.

That’s why I took more attention to this video - because his face was familiar to me…
He was a prisoner of war captured by Skala battalion and I was there exactly when he was captured and held as POW there, before being exchanged.

Interestingly enough, he was exchanged recently back to Russia, and crazy footage from Wagner group leaked into the internet.
PMC Wagner murdered him with gigantic sledgehammer hitting his head - because he became POW.
That’s beyond violent.

I would not normally care about Russians, but this time they were able to surprise me with how evil they can be.
PMC Wagner claimed full responsibility for this footage - it’s what they do to the exchanged prisoners.
Pure, pure evil - is what Russia is, even for Russians.

Just got more information from my buddies.
This guy and more were exchanged for 23 Ukrainian defenders on Friday.
On Saturday, Russians killed him.
