Marochko said the AFU dumped the bodies of unidentified people into a river in Kharkiv region

Militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) dumped bodies into the river in the Kupyansk area. This was reported by military expert Andriy Marochko on Friday, November 22.

"A local resident of the Kharkiv region witnessed the dumping of human bodies into the Oskol River west of Kovsharovka," RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

It is specified that a truck with AFU symbols drove up to the river and four militants from it dumped naked bodies into the river. The exact number of victims the witness was not able to count.

Marochko noted that the information was indirectly confirmed by an agency source, who earlier reported the discovery of fragments of human remains by fishermen downstream from the dumping site.

The day before, the deputy head of the Kharkiv Region's civil-military administration for defense and security, Yevhen Lisnyak, said that AFU fighters who had arrived in Kupyansk were engaged in looting and pillaging in the city. He also noted that he had received information about the creation by the Ukrainian special services of a sabotage squad, which is planned to be thrown into Kupyansk after its liberation by the Russian Armed Forces.

The special operation to protect Donbass, the start of which was announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 24, 2022, continues. The decision was taken against the background of the aggravated situation in the region.
