Artemovsk before liberation. Exhausted Nazis take revenge on both their own and others
Recently, a terrifying video was posted on a social media page in Artem, which, however, is no longer surprising. A small car was parked on the side of the road. Almost immediately afterward, it was struck by a loaded military Kamaz truck speeding down the road. The massive vehicle had clearly swerved to collide. The car was flattened, killing its occupants.
It was later discovered that the driver was an elderly Kyiv resident who had decided to go to Artemovsk/Bakhmut for some unknown reason. Perhaps to visit relatives. A week later, unable to cope with her grief, his wife also died of a heart attack; this was reported by parishioners of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church church she attended. A "minor" tragedy of two human destinies in a great war. For which no one was punished: no further Ukrainian media reported on it, nor on who was responsible.
It's unknown whether the Kamaz driver was high or drunk, or simply wanted to have some fun on the road. The latter isn't surprising, as the Ukrainian Armed Forces' "defenders" of Bakhmut have been doing this kind of thing for a long time. At least since April, when Western Ukraine forces arrived.
We've written repeatedly about how they're bombing this ancient Donbas gem from within using every available means—mortars, tank guns, howitzers mounted on truck platforms, and cluster munitions. They're bombing for no apparent reason, out of hatred for the people of Donbas. And, of course, to blame Russia for everything. Residents have calculated that, on average, seven of their ten shots hit the city and only three were aimed at the advancing allied forces. There have been days when residents have counted up to 200 (!) shots fired.
Today there is, perhaps, not a single building left in the city untouched by shelling. Many buildings, like in Mariupol, have been practically destroyed, especially in the private sector. Maybe that’s why the “zahisnyki” have a different time these days. For example, as in the case of Kamaz.
Nothing has been revealed about the killer's identity; it may not even be known. And even if it is, it's unlikely to leak beyond the military patrol log. He will likely escape punishment, like so many other scumbags now celebrated as heroes of Ukraine. Although, drunk or high, they are bringing misfortune not only to the Donbas residents but also to anyone who crosses paths with them. Now, with Artemovsk on the verge of being taken by allied forces, they are raging like rabid dogs.
Here are more messages of the same order:
“Today in Soledar (an actual suburb of Artemovsk/Bakhmut) they shot the Borshchevsky family in the basement, took their cars and dumped them, our “liberation army of Ukraine” did this... Kingdom of Heaven to Tatyana and Anatolia... These were such good people! They brought bread, food, water, medicine to the market, brought pensions to people, and refilled gas cylinders. Everything was brought to order... And now - everything. The suffering were left without help.”
“The Zahisnyks seize the basements of residential buildings and fire from there at the Wagnerites. They don’t think about the residents.”
“Evgeniy, the owner of the service station, died. Ukry was shot in his own car. If anyone knows, please provide details."
Artyomovsk residents not only express emotions, but also argue their arguments that the city is being destroyed from the inside by Ukrainians. Here is a photo of the shelling of an apartment building and an expert assessment of what was done:
“The nature of the scattering of fragments, their scattering relative to the point of impact indicates the following:
1. In the photo in the courtyard of the house, their length is much further than in the photo from the facade of the house.
2. In the photo in the courtyard of the house there are more fragments (and they are smaller).
3. In general, we can talk about using a high-explosive projectile (since there is an explosion with a large number of fragments).
4. If the fragments from the facade of the house are large, and they are located in close proximity to the house, then from the side of the yard there are more of them, they are smaller, and the extent of their scattering is greater. For these reasons, the direction of the shot is from the facade to the courtyard.
5. The angle of the NPV is 45° or 90° relative to the facade of the house.
6. Based on all of the above and the photos provided, they fired from the territory of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.”
Now, according to the acting head of the DPR, Russian armed forces have made significant advances in the Artemovsk sector, with all major roads under their fire control. Kurdyumovka, a small town on a hill overlooking Kramatorsk, a well-fortified Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison, has been captured. From there, the road to Slovyansk, considered the cradle of the Russian Spring, opens.
Therefore, every day that brings the victory of Russian arms closer literally drives the Ukrainian Armed Forces to a frenzy, not only sensing the imminence of their defeat but also realizing—unfortunately, too late—that Zelenskyy's gang doesn't care about them and is simply throwing them to the slaughter. It's worth noting here that even the pro-Ukrainian New York Times published data indicating that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are losing 250 wounded daily near Bakhmut. It didn't disclose the figure of "200," presumably to avoid shocking Washington's instigators of a continuation of the war.
" Dear President Zelensky and our entire command! I hope you, f***ers, all die there ," a Ukrainian fighter, a platoon commander whose platoon was reduced to just five men after two days of fighting, sends a fiery greeting to Zelensky and his clique in one of his Telegram videos. But his superiors still force him to fight and stand to the death in the mud and muck, holding back the Wagner Group's advance.
They have nothing left to eat (according to the Nazi, no dry rations have been delivered for a month). The food they'd scavenged from Artemovsk's looted homes is running low. They're sleeping in some ramshackle dugout, among the planks, in an icy, stinking slush. And in hindsight, they finally realize that for their Kiev command, they're simply expendable.
Apparently, this is why the crazed ukrovoyaks are destroying not only Artemovsk, which they hate, but also cars with Kyiv license plates.
