Ukraine War: 'Executed' soldier video could be a war crime

President Zelenskyy has promised that Ukraine will find the Russians allegedly responsible for shooting dead an unarmed Ukrainian soldier.

Footage emerged online yesterday purportedly showing the killing.

Speaking about the footage, Sky's chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay said "if it is absolutely correct and if it is what it purports to be then that is, without doubt, a war crime"

"Could be a war crime" - The man was unarmed, and was already captured and is considered a POW. This is a war crime.

I’ve seen this uncensored
It’s brutal
But he has balls of steel
He smiled in the face of death

He said “Glory to ukraine” before he was executed is heartbreaking

[markfalconer]

All he had was his words . No weapons . He knew he was going to be shot but didn't beg for mercy . Instead as a last chance of defiance he said Glory to Ukraine. He was a brave man

It is a war crime, not "could be".

"Could be" a war crime???
Water "could be" wet.

Oleksandr Matsijevskij, soldier in163:e Bataljon (Territorial local defency army), fom Cherniv. A man in his forties, with an eye damage... He could probably easily get leave from army duties, but preferred to do his best to defend his country...

I've seen the full video. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Correction: "Executed" soldier IS a war crime.

A hero with a lion heart. His last words killed the enemy morale

No panic, no pleading. He died bravely. R.I.P. And the murders pay.
