Russian Officer Orders Civilian Executions in Ukraine: Genocide in Luhansk
An investigation by the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ 3rd Assault Brigade uncovered evidence of Russian soldiers, under the orders of Oleg Igorevych Rudakov, targeting and harming civilians in Nevske, Luhansk region. Intercepted communications reveal Rudakov directing the killing and torture of civilians and the destruction of civilian vehicles. This follows a pattern of Russian forces violating international humanitarian law, as evidenced by a separate incident in Toretsk where two civilians were killed. The collected evidence, including phone recordings and radio transmissions, will be used as potential evidence in international war crimes proceedings.
