On Tuesday, September 6, 40 days have passed since the day when the Russian invaders committed a terrorist attack in the Olenivsky colony, cruelly and insidiously killing 53 captured Ukrainian defenders. In the evening in Kyiv, on Sophia Square, the memory of the fallen soldiers was honored. A photo report from there was published by “Suspilne”.

People lit candles and kneeled to honor the memory of the fallen Ukrainian soldiers. On the pavement they laid out OLENIVKA AZOV with candles. Some of those present were holding posters with the “bloody” inscription Olenivka and calls to save the defenders of Azovstal..

Among those present was the wife of the commander of the Azov Regiment Denis Prokopenko Ekaterina Prokopenko. She said that since May she has not been able to contact her husband and does not know where he is.. Russian media report that Denis Prokopenko is in Moscow, but there is no confirmation of this information.

“The Red Cross is not involved in his search, as far as I can see.. Because the constant replies to my letters " Even though it's been three months. How can you be in the process for three months and not have an answer for me? At least non-public, give me at least some private information, how is his health, is there any torture,” said Ekaterina Prokopenko.

Kateryna Prookopenko noted the importance of investigating all the circumstances of the tragedy in Olenivka as soon as possible, when the Ukrainian defenders were actually burned alive.

“We do not see any shifts in the investigations, no lists, no cases at all, which would help us understand what happened there.. We know what happened there, but there is no documentary fixation. We write letters every day to all international institutions, to all countries, to join the investigation, to put pressure on Russia, to return the bodies, to provide confirmed lists, to help the wounded, to return the wounded,” she said.. - They are under threat every day, especially Azov, because we know that if they killed Azov, that now they are forbidden to do it again? Their hands are tied. There's nothing in effect, no convention, no law, nothing. We're afraid it won't happen again.

Recall, on the night of July 29, an explosion was heard on the territory of the former penal colony in the Olenivka village in the temporarily occupied territory of the Donetsk region.. Then the building where the Ukrainian prisoners of war were kept was destroyed.. 53 Ukrainian soldiers were killed, 130 were injured.

Russia tried to accuse Ukraine of shelling the colony, but everything indicates that the attack was staged by infidels and, in fact, Ukrainian heroes were burned alive. This is a provocation and another war crime of the Russian Federation.
