[Regnum] The Federal Security Service (FSB) Directorate for the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) has declassified documents containing evidence of mass murders of civilians by the Nazis in the territory of Donbass in the period 1941–1943.The FSB press service informed Regnum News Agency about this on November 10. "From the first days of the treacherous invasion of the fascist invaders into the territory of Donbass, the occupiers created punitive bodies that were engaged in the extermination of communists, Soviet activists, partisans and civilians. Active participants in the punitive activities carried out by the fascist occupiers were Dinkel Alexander Gustavovich and Ponomarev Ivan Andreevich," the special service said in a statement. It is noted that Dinkel headed and directed the punitive activities of the police in the occupied territories of Donbass, giving orders to Ponomarev and other subordinates to arrest and subsequently shoot Soviet citizens. In addition, Dinkel, the FSB noted, personally participated in crimes. As reported by the Regnum news agency, on November 1, the FSB published archival documents on the identification and capture of Ukrainian nationalist, SS man and executioner Vasily Malazhensky, who was a member of the OUN (Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists - a terrorist organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) and who operated in Volyn and Yugoslavia. On September 24, the FSB released archival documents about the bloody crimes committed by Poles in the village of Skopov in March 1945. |
