They were helped by local collaborators.
In the temporarily occupied territory of the Kharkiv region, the Russian military organized the abduction of the children of a local resident, persuading those who agreed to work for them. This was reported by the State Border Service of Ukraine on Facebook.
“The invaders were told that the man had weapons collected at the battlefield. The Russians sent local collaborators to find out. The expropriators did not find the owner of the house, so in agreement with Russian officers, they took away his two underage sons, ”the statement said.
According to the State Border Guard Service, at the time the occupiers entered the house, the man went to another village for humanitarian aid to feed his six-month-old grandson.
He was later blackmailed over the phone, but did not agree to exchange the children for the found weapon.
“He admitted that he did find a machine gun on the road, which he is ready to give for the children. Collaborators replied that they are ready to give only one son for one machine gun, or we will have to agree…,” the State Border Service said.
The report stressed that this situation is another proof of Russia's disregard for the rules of warfare and gross violation of international law. According to the State Border Guard Service, the crimes committed by the Russian Federation are comparable to Hitler's crimes.
