Major Mykyta Nadtochiy, the acting commander of the «Azov» Regiment, stated that the terrorist attack in the Olenivka colony was nothing else than a public execution. He also added that the perpetrators and organizers of the crime are already being sought, and the Regiment has preliminary information about them. The corresponding video address was published on the Azov-Mariupol page.
«We regard the attack on Olenivka as a public execution. Russia is used to impunity. They are used to not being held accountable, even for openly violating the laws, rules and customs of warfare. Therefore, we in «Azov», and Ukraine as a state, the whole civilized world will give a painful rebuff so that Russia remembers this once and for all. We are already finding out the names of the executioners and organizers of the execution,» – he says.

«We will find them wherever they are – in the occupied territories, in Russia, or in third countries. Ukraine as a state will ensure fair punishment. I want to remind Putin, who is personally responsible for this war crime, that the rope is not discussed in the hanged man’s house,» – the acting commander said.
According to him, Russia thinks that it has executed «Azov», but now, the entire Ukraine is Azov. Every Ukrainian will take revenge for our tortured and dead brothers.
