Who is the mystical army of Ukraine? As a volunteer battalion “Azov” officially became part of the Ukrainian army. Why do Russians call them Nazis? And whether the last shield of Mariupol will break. One of the commanders of “Azov”, who heads the unit in Kiev, Maxim Zhorin, speaks on the Bulgarian Nova TV.
According to him, in 2014 there was only one unit “Azov” – which is now in Mariupol. “Then I was its commander. Today I command Azov in Kyiv, which appeared after the invasion. We can say that Kyiv and the region are completely cleared of enemy troops, but the risks remain, yesterday there was a rocket attack. The Russians will continue to fire periodically the capital with missiles,” he said.
“I took part in the first battle for Bucha’s liberation, I witnessed all the atrocities. We will bring all the perpetrators to justice. Unfortunately, the crimes in Mariupol and Bucha can be multiplied hundreds of times,” Zhorin explained. He added that the Russians would like to fully control Mariupol.
“The city is a historical disgrace of the Russian Federation. Completely surrounded and dozens of times superior in number, they could not do anything against the strength of Ukrainian heroes. “These are terrorists who came to our land and killed our civilians. The bodies of many Russians will remain on our land,” he said. And he assured that the cruiser “Moscow” was blown up by Ukrainian missiles.
