Whether he is alive or not, the Prosecutor General did not specify. But at the end of March, information appeared on the network that the occupier had been eliminated.

On March 30, The Times published the testimony of a Ukrainian woman, Natalya (not her real name), who told the story of how Russian soldiers broke into her house, robbed it, shot the woman’s husband, and then raped her for several hours on March 9. Then the victim named the names of her offenders - soldier Vitaly and his commander Mikhail Romanov.
