Russians from the Wagner PMC admitted to killing Ukrainian children

This was reported in a video posted by the Russian human rights project Gulagu.net.

Former convicts from prison “ИК-13 УФСИН” in the Saratov region Azamat Uldarov (pardoned by the decree of the President of the Russian Federation of 23.08.22) and former convicts from  prison  “ИК-1 УФСИН” in the Voronezh region Alexey Savichev (pardoned by Putin’s decree of 02.09.2022) gave testimony during video and audio interrogations for a week to Gulagu.net founder Vladimir Osiechkin.

They provided details of the shooting of over 20 Ukrainian children and teenagers, the explosion of a pit with more than 50 wounded prisoners of war and the so-called “500s” (those who decided to leave the war and refused to obey orders to kill Ukrainians), clearing residential buildings with the murder of everyone, including children.

One of the criminals confessed to “shooting a 5-year-old girl in the head” when they entered Soledar and Bakhmut.

“She’s screaming, she’s a little child, you understand. I gave a 5-6-year-old girl a control shot,” the Wagnerite said.

In turn, Azamat Uldarov said that he “cleared out” a basement with 300-400 civilians, including 40 children. According to him, it was a 9-story building. He stated that he “had no choice” because he had an order to “clear” everyone out.

As former unit commanders of the Wagner PMC reported, Prigozhin personally ordered the clearing of Bakhmut. It was even worse in Soledar.

“Civilians were coming out. And there was an order: to shoot everyone who was 15 years old and older without saying a word. 20-24 people were shot, 10-15 of them were 15-17 years old.”

When asked how many unarmed civilians they killed in February 2023, Savichev replied that 15-year-old Ukrainians “hardly peaceful residents”.
