One After Another, Russian Criminals Fall

Live from Ukraine ????????
Bucha Last Saturday, 3,700 kilometers from here, a car exploded in the Russian region of Kemerovo. There was only one person inside, behind the steering wheel. His name was Veniamin Mazherin. A lieutenant colonel in the Russian National Guard, to his fellow citizens. A war criminal, or more simply, an executioner, to those who survived the persecution and torture that the now-former member of the Obereg special unit inflicted on the civilian population of Bucha during the Russian occupation. The Ukrainian special services of the ГУР,announcedthe news, recalling that theMazherin unit was among those of the Rosgvardia directly involved in war crimes and acts of genocide against the Ukrainian people in the Kyiv region between February and March 2022. The RUPR also specified that by April of that year,all those responsible for the crimes committed by the Obereg had been identified and that measures had been taken to ensure that each received just punishment.
This work was made possible mainly through thesurvivors testimoniesand thecollected video and photographic evidence, which enabledthe Prosecutor General of Ukraine to start a criminal investigation for violations of the laws and customs of war.
Alla Perdei and I knew many of those survivors personally. Their stories were among the most poignant and dramatic we have ever reported on these pages. I now returned to Bucha to meet someone who confirmed a crucial detail:digital archives exist containing hundreds of hours of recordings of the horrors committed during those days. Surveillance webcams, closed-circuit television cameras, bodycams, drones, and other recording devices continued recording even during power outages, thanks to auxiliary batteries and backup devices. Thanks to modern data protection techniques, these tapes containa visual record of much of the Bucha massacre. They expose the genocidal intent of Russian and Chechen troops, who were given free rein to unleash their most primal, base, and inhuman instincts against the defenseless Ukrainian civilians.
Alla Perdei and I already wrote about the existence of thatmassive digital evidence archivethree years ago, when the wildest denial theories about that carnage were dominating Italian television talk shows. Revealing even a single detail could compromise their legal standing, as they constituteundeniable proof of what the civilian world has already partly seen and knows.
The Sunday Times recentlyrevealedthe identities of 13 Russian commanders directly involved in the Bucha massacre, that dark chapter in human history that forever changed the perception of the Russian war in Ukraine.
Leading the list is General Colonel Alexander Chaiko, commander of Russias Eastern Military District. He is followed by Major General Sergey Chubarikin, commander of the 76th Airborne Division; Artem Gorodilov, Azatbek Omurbekov, and Andriy Kondrov, commanders of the 234th Regiment, the 64th Separate Mechanized Brigade, and the 5th Armored Brigade, respectively; General Colonel Alexander Sanchik; General Colonel Valery Solodchuk; Major General Vadim Pankov; Major General Vladimir Seliverstov; Colonel Yuriy Medvedev; Colonel Aleksey Tolmachat; Colonel Sergey Karasyov; and Lieutenant Colonel Denis Suvorov. Clearly, none of them will escape with a copy of Crime and Punishment on their bedside table after a night of revelry.
On Monday, the Kyiv General Prosecutors Officeannouncedthat661 Ukrainian children have been killed and 2,203 injured since the beginning of the war during Russian incursions; 4,500 schools have been destroyed, as have 1,294 hospitals. Over 19,000 children have been abducted (the actual number is likely much higher), and at least 23 cases of sexual abuse against minors have been reported.
Many of these atrocities occurred in Bucha, where mass graves, survivors accounts, and satellite images exposed to the world a truth so horrifying that it could be said to have forever changed Western public opinion and the course of the war. As the Ukrainian Prosecutor Generalnoted, these are not just numbers chilling in themselves butbroken dreams, childrens voices silenced forever, homes destroyed, and destinies shattered. It is an attempt to wipe out Ukrainians as a nation through a deliberate policy of terror.

俄羅斯罪犯一個接一個倒下
作者：Giorgio Provinciali
烏克蘭現場報道????????
布查（Bucha）上周六，距離這裏3700公裏的俄羅斯克麥羅沃地區，一輛汽車發生爆炸。車內僅有一人，駕駛座上。他的名字叫韋尼亞明馬澤林。作為俄羅斯國家衛隊的一名中校，他的同胞們如此稱呼他。對於那些在俄軍占領布查期間對平民施加的迫害和酷刑中幸存下來的人來說，這名奧別雷格特別部隊的前成員是戰犯，或者更直白地說，是一名行刑者。烏克蘭情報部門ГУР(國家安全局)公布了這條消息，並指出馬澤林部隊曾在2022年2月至3月期間，直接參與對烏克蘭基輔地區的戰爭罪行和種族滅絕行為。RUPR也明確指出，截至當年四月，所有Obereg的涉案罪犯已被確認，並采取措施確保每人受到應有的懲罰。
這項工作主要依靠幸存者的證詞以及收集的視頻和照片證據，使烏克蘭總檢察長得以展開針對違反戰爭法的刑事調查。

Alla Perdei和我認識其中許多幸存者。他們的故事是我們在本刊報道中最令人心碎、最坎坷的故事之一。如今，我再度踏入布查，遇到了一位確認了關鍵細節的人：有數百小時的數字存檔記錄了俄軍在那些日子裏犯下的恐怖罪行。
借助備用電池和備份設備，監控攝像頭、閉路電視、隨身攝像頭、無人機以及其他錄音設備，即便在停電時也保持了持續錄製。得益於現代數據保護技術，這些錄像保存著布查大屠殺的直觀證據，揭露了俄羅斯和車臣軍隊的種族滅絕意圖，他們在手無寸鐵的烏克蘭平民麵前，肆意釋放出他們最原始、最邪惡、不人道的本能。
早在三年前，Alla Perdei和我就寫過有關這份龐大數字證據檔案的文章，當時關於那次大屠殺的最瘋狂的否認理論主導了意大利電視脫口秀節目。揭示哪怕一個細節，都有可能損害他們的法律地位，因為它們構成了平民世界已經部分看到和知道的不可否認的證據。
《星期日泰晤士報》最近披露了直接參與布查大屠殺的13名俄羅斯指揮官的身份，這是人類曆史上的黑暗篇章，永遠改變了人們對俄羅斯在烏克蘭戰爭的看法。
名單首位是俄羅斯東部軍區司令，上將亞曆山大柴科少校。他之後是第76空降師司令、少將謝爾蓋丘巴金；以及第234團、第64獨立機械化旅和第5裝甲旅的指揮官阿爾喬姆戈羅迪洛夫、阿紮特貝克奧穆貝科夫和安德烈孔德羅夫；還有上校亞曆山大桑奇米克；上校瓦列裏索洛奇丘克；少將瓦迪姆潘科夫；少將弗拉基米爾塞利弗斯托夫；尤裏梅德韋傑夫上校；阿列克謝托爾馬查特上校；謝爾蓋卡拉肖夫上校，以及蘇沃洛夫中校。顯然，這些人都不可能在夜晚狂歡後，手埧美劇《罪與罰》的副本，安然入睡。

周一，基輔總檢察長辦公室宣布，自戰爭爆發以來，俄羅斯入侵期間，已有661名烏克蘭兒童被殺，2,203人受傷；4500所學校被夷為平地，1,294家醫院遭到摧毀。超過19,000名兒童被綁架（實際數字可能遠高於此），至少報告了23起對未成年人的性虐待案件。
其中許多暴行發生在布查，那裏的萬人坑、幸存者的證詞以及衛星圖像向世界揭示了一段令人震驚的真相，可以說徹底改變了西方公眾的看法以及戰爭的走向。正如烏克蘭總檢察長所指出的，這些不僅僅是數字它本身就令人毛骨悚然更意味著破碎的夢想、兒童永遠被沉默的聲音、被毀滅的家園、被粉碎的命運。它是個有預謀的恐怖政策，蓄意徹底抹去烏克蘭作為一個民族的存在。
