in the soviet union, only one of the three women who were sentenced to the highest degree of punishment in post-war times was given a machine gun. a film from a series without a statute of limitations. the girl with the eyes of satan. on the air belarus-1 and belarus 24. watch right now. case number. 50 such a serial number was assigned in the late seventies of the last century to the criminal case against antanina makarovna ginsburg. she was accused of a crime under part a of article 64 of the criminal code of the rsfsr, treason. the most famous executioner of the soviet union was arrested in 1978 year in the belarusian city of lepel. she was invited to the building of the district branch of the lepelsky kkb. came there and was asked the question:

do you understand why you were invited here, to which she calmly replied: this is probably some kind of mistake. they were looking for her for 35 years, the operational search case was opened back in forty-three, only then the executioner had the surname makarova, and her name was nothing other than the thin machine gunner. twice i saw her in boots at the fromovs, she walked around all the time, once in a black skirt and tunic. in a cap, another time she is completely in a german cap clothes and also in a cap with a whip, a maxim system machine gun or simply maxim, the executioner girl used this weapon to shoot her victims during the great patriotic war. it is estimated that about one and a half thousand people, old people, women, children, red army soldiers, partisans and underground fighters were killed. she took off the clothes of the executed people, not even those spattered with blood. with bullet holes,

she even describes that she had previously looked out for clothes for the walker, the contents of where the prisoners were kept, then she shot them and took them off, my cousin told me mine, he was once a musician here, i also asked him how he said it went, he says it was normal, but she was shot while sober , because here control was also hers. the criminal case stored in the archives of the fsb directorate for the bryansk region is still classified. the records of the defendant's interrogation of witnesses are not available for public display. employees of the state security agencies of the bssr took part in the work to uncover the facts of the criminal activities of antonina makarova, primarily, of course, the kgb department for vitebsk region, as well as the rsfsr. this is

the kaliningrad region, where antonina makarova allegedly served, actually met her husband as a nurse, and the administration for the bryansk region, for the bryansk region, because crimes were actually committed there. today the case number is 22007. on the title page it is indicated that there are four volumes, but in fact there are five volumes. one exclusively from photographs taken during the inspection of the area and interrogations at the crime scenes. silently she let her head go and walked, well, when she was already a little impudent, people were, so to speak, wound up, they also showed themselves very aggressively, if not security, then punitive activities during the years of the great patriotic war and post-war peaceful life, the thin machine gunners are more speculation than real facts, little is known about antonina’s childhood, why in the large family of the panfilovs or as indicated in some sources... porfilov, one daughter bore

the surname makarova. the executioner woman was born in moscow on march 1, 1920. such data is indicated in the criminal case. she completed seven classes at one of the moscow schools. by the way, in in the first grade, the teacher mistakenly wrote down antonina as makarova, being sure that this was the girl’s surname. it turned out that the children called tonya by her father’s name. despite the mistake with makarov's last name, she lived. fsbb of the russian federation, who studied the case of a nazi collaborator. it was thanks to them that our film crew was able to film these materials. in addition to antonina, there were six more children in the family. my father committed suicide in 1940. before the war, tonya managed to work at a knitting factory in the factory canteen and complete courses in red cross. from moscow in august 1941, antonina makarova was sent to the front on a komsomol voucher. the twenty-one-year-old medical instructor was hit. army under the command of

konstantin rakutin. as part of one of the army units, she participated in the elny operation, and in october of the same forty -first year she was surrounded in the vyazma area. the vyazimsky cauldron is four soviet armies that were surrounded by the army center group. the wehrmacht operation in the moscow direction was called typhoon. the losses of the red army amounted to more than million people, 6,000 of whom were captured, among them was instructor antonina makarova. in a camp for soviet prisoners of war, antonina met red army soldier sergei fitchuk. they managed to escape. they wandered through the forests for several months, and the centurions passed by. they headed in the bryansk direction, eventually came to fetchuk’s native village of krasny kolodets, here their paths diverged, makarova’s companion went to his family, and tonya asked to stay with a local resident, but did not stay long, antonina met the chief of police

the village of lokot, which was located only 6 km from the red well and moved there, only the machine gunner ended up in the lokot volost, which... was such a very interesting formation in the temporarily occupied territory, and accepted her on the first day, none other than bronislav kaminsky, who actually ruled this area, subsequently held the rank of major general in the wehrmacht. during the great patriotic war, the village of lokot of the modern bryansk region belonged territorially to the oryol region and was the center of the so-called lokot self-government, a collaborationist formation that obeyed. the second german tank army, it was first called the people's militia, and kaminsky, after the destruction, liquidation by the partisans - konstantin vyskovinikov , called himself a police commissar, that is , at first such a police force was organized as

a police squad, this kaminsky, he was sent before the war, he worked as the chief of the factory an engineer, and people like my father...

rona needed her own executioner who would deal with the partisans and those who helped. twenty-two-year-old antonina makarova became such a punisher. she was paid 30 dm as a bonus,

free food and accommodation. she was taught to shoot from a nagant and a machine gun. not every person is capable of shooting people with a machine gun. protective people, not at the front, namely to shoot defenseless people, she was a blood-blooded person, in the worst sense of the word, without pity, capable of any lie, she did her job, that’s what she said at the trial, i did it, you don’t i felt sorry for the people whom you shot for no reason, and i did my job, i don’t have any... it was in the building before the military stud farm, purebred trotters were raised here, with the beginning of the great patriotic war, the horses were sent to the front, the enterprise was evacuated. it was a captain's building, the walls were

a meter thick, but since there were horses there, there were so-called diaries, a stand for keeping horses, in theory there should be in every stand. was slaughtered, then they added more barbed wire twice as large as this stable, they slaughtered people, like herrings, there with children, with little ones with babies, everything, it was impossible to sit there, let alone lie down, but sit down, people were all standing, there were from two to 2,500 prisoners in the prison at the same time, it was worth it for a horse, the stall could accommodate about 27 people . this was a party for execution; in a day it could easily destroy several groups of prisoners.

for the first time, makarova shot people at the end of june, at the beginning of july forty-two, four people who were led to a large hole near the cemetery. before the war , clay was mined here, and during the occupation the quarry became mass grave. the machine gun was brought to the place of execution on a cart and installed 15 meters from the victims. people did not scream or try to run, they were connected with each other. she shot subtly without aiming, squatting down, she told the investigator about this during interrogations, and also that when sitting down at the machine gun, she always straightened her hair so that her hair did not fall in her eyes. from the lukota prison to the place of execution there are only 400 meters; for the prisoners these were the last meters of life. those sentenced to the place of execution walked, those who could no longer walk they gave us a lift. after the machine-gun fire, people who applied at least...

lipovaya alleya street in the village of lokot, here in one of the houses during the great patriotic war the prison administration was located. there were offices on the second floor and living rooms on the first floor. in one of which the executioner makarova lived. elbow was liberated on september 5 , 1943, even before the approach of the red army; a few weeks later, the nazi leadership, which supervised ron, gave the order to retreat. in august 1943 , together with the german army, armed the formation under the commands of kaminsky

was relocated to the belarusian lepel, where the so-called lepel republic was created. several tens of thousands of people arrived in the small town at once, these were soldiers and members of their families, there was not enough housing, the komin residents evicted the local population and moved into their houses, where the lepelians themselves would live, the nazi collaborators did not care. on the territory of belarus, rona did the same thing as in her elbow, she fought with partisan formations. the main goal is to provide a safe rear for the wehrmacht. in the vitebsk region the kamintsy took part in counter-partisan actions under the leadership of the acc group commander kurt von godberk. as part of the punitive operations, not only, and far from only the partizan, were destroyed, the local population was also destroyed. well, in particular, as part of one of the operations, only 24 villages were burned by bradislavka.

partisan districts entered, destroyed just villages, found mangled corpses of partisans with gouged out eyes, ripped open bellies, in lepel, the kaminans arrived without their regular executioner, tonka was being treated for venereal diseases in deep german... she understood that returning from the hospital to her main place of work was dangerous, so she joined one of the german military units, she knew the officer corps well, and with them she decided the issue of leaving. in makarova’s unit, she guarded german soldiers. with a wehrmacht unit, tonya reached brest, where the russian washerwoman was sent to a camp. here, according to makarova herself, hard work awaited her at an autogenous welding plant. a year and a half until release. camps of the red army, she cooked tanks for german camp cockles; after her release, during

a special inspection by the nkvd, she told how she was surrounded and how she ended up in the camp, that she took the oath, probably to the third reich, and worked as an executioner in the prison of the village of lokot, naturally. kept silent. in addition, tonka managed to forge documents. she stole a military id, wrote down that she had served in a medical battalion since 1941, at that time in... in the liberated territories there was already a search for the executioner from the elbow, arresting nazi collaborators and interviewing witnesses, information about the thin machine gunner constantly surfaced.

the hero, who single-handedly destroyed one and a half dozen enemy soldiers, naturally had no idea about the nazi past of the pretty nurse. antonina and victor began to live together. in 1947, after the birth of their first daughter, they married, so makarova became ginsburg. victor himself is from polotsk, he went to the front, his whole family remained in his homeland, parents, brothers and sisters who ended up in the ghetto. all were destroyed by the nazis, they rest in mass grave. that is why, after the war , young... ginsburg did not want to live in polotsk. it’s hard, victor chose lepel. here ’s a twist of fate: i didn’t end up with the kaminians, i came with my family. say that she was very happy with her husband, that he was so kind, so hard-working, surrounded her with love and care, in general, she bathed in prosperity, in affection in flowers in the glory of her work,

a man who did absolutely nothing i didn’t show myself anywhere, i didn’t show myself off anywhere. search only. as a rule, they were reported during interrogations the same war criminals who were detained by state security officials. the fact that the end was close became clear in 1977, when viktor ginsburg submitted documents to leave for israel. actually, the husband himself, let’s say, had nothing to complain about, but the biography of his wife made the security officers agree.

according to the data that was available, she served from ’41 to ’44, that is, 3 years, but she did not remember the details of her commanders, she began to get confused in her testimony. this alarmed soviet counterintelligence officers even more. antonina ginsburg was taken up as part of the operational audit case. it was a thorough investigative work and more and more facts indicated that it was the veteran of the great patriotic war, honored worker antonina ginsburg, who was the same tonka machine gun.

were distributed by counterintelligence in order, well, firstly, not to injure people, in case it was actually some kind of mistake. everyone who was brought to lepel recognized antonina ginsburg as the very subtle executioner, despite the fact that more than 30 years had passed. after all the checks, an arrest warrant was issued, her arrested in june 1978. at the time of her arrest , ginsburg was already a pensioner, but continued to work as a controller for the production of finished products at the lepel industrial plant. by the way , she came to the company back in the early sixties, they spoke of her as a respected person, and in her description they noted that antonina makarovna enjoys authority among her colleagues. portrait of antonina. gunzburg was on the company's honor roll; she was a champion of labor. a small murmur buzzed, people could not believe that the city's respected a man, a traitor to the motherland, a punisher,

who counts the lives of thousands of people, what was it like for a husband who lost his entire family to the nazis, and they lived with antonina for over 30 years, their daughters were married, the team knew her, well, they were shocked, not immediately believed. “yes , it can’t be, but it can’t be, but she is a respected person, antonina, and not a thin, spitting woman, she was some kind of two-faced person who could live two completely different lives, here she is a machine gunner, here she is a wonderful mother, a wonderful wife, mistress, lovely worker, i personally knew one of her daughters, she worked at the lepel department store, and you know, when this story surfaced, we went there for a... look, because we were very scared, the ginsburg family went through some time left lepel, living in a small town after this story was unbearable, there was no moral or

physical strength, but many residents say that victor ginsburg worked at the same enterprise until the end of his life, and was buried in the city cemetery and lepel land then . made noise for a very long time because no, no, we remembered this event for a long time, at least i’m saying that it didn’t go anywhere, well, it was here, but it’s her. this person lived here, a terrible person, how she could walk here on this earth, and we could breathe the same air, how we could breathe, is inexplicable, the next day after the arrest antonina ginsburg was sent to bryansk, because it was on the territory of the modern bryansk region thinly committed a crime, so the investigation continued there, the thinly machine gunner behaved quite calmly after her arrest, than i was also struck by those who issued types of investigative operas.

no, she didn’t consider herself guilty, she clearly said: i did my job, if you do the job, you will lower your eyes, no, arrogance, which means she had too much, antanina makarova herself was sure that the war would write everything off , the maximum is that she faces 3 years, and then conditionally, that she will be sentenced to death and did not allow the thought, she believed that there was nothing to punish her for, she was just working, that’s her profession, an executioner. at the end of october 1978 , the materials of the criminal case were transferred to to court, a few weeks later the trial began, it took place in the building of the bryansk

regional court under enhanced security measures, because at that time the witnesses were still alive. the process was open, so at every meeting the hall was packed with people. it was possible to prove only 168 episodes of murder. the names of the victims of the executioner were identified; they are on the memorial in the village of lok. all were rejected, the sentence, for which there is no statute of limitations, was carried out on august 11, 1979.

gintovt vitold mikhailovich, soviet tanker as, participant in the great patriotic war. them, as part of the crew of the t-34 tank, 21 enemy tanks were destroyed, of which four heavy tiger tanks, as well as four self-propelled guns.

in april 1944, for exemplary performance of combat missions of the command on the front of the fight against the nazi invaders, foreman vitold mikhailovich gintovt was awarded the title of hero of the soviet union with the order of lenin and the gold star medal. in politics, alexander grigorievich has already become a figure in scale that goes far beyond the scope of the post of president of belarus;

nominally he is responsible only for his... country, in fact, thanks to his colossal experience, he is highly respected in the world and even in the democratic world, although they are not recognized there, has a strong influence on many regions in the world. only those who do not have some desired power speak about democracy and democracy all over the world; they want to get it, but cannot. politics is when public comments along the way speak rather about the absence of real actions. we'll wait and see, we're in no hurry, especially russia . here. for me, these are the main words of alexander grigorievich about the future of our region and the fact that we are in no hurry, there are two sides to the coin. the conflict in ukraine is unlikely to end quickly, but no matter how long it lasts, it will end with a stable and lasting peace. author's project of igor turai propaganda. watch on tv channel belarus 24. from soviet.
