they put them in front of him and simply shot them later, when, uh, the soviet troops. uh, they liberated this territory and dug it out. e found there, about 3,000. uh, dead uh, the bodies of soviet citizens. one of the main targets of the punishers was the partisan detachments, such a shock backbone is the regular military , someone escaped from captivity, someone took refuge, being surrounded by local residents. well, he comes to his senses, but he didn’t throw away his rifle, and, uh, the most enterprising of these encirclement. basically, these are commanders. naturally they they begin to form first groups, and then large detachments, and these detachments are very numerous by the winter of forty-two. they become a huge problem for the german command, at least on the territory of the smolensk region for helping the partisans.

the population was punished immediately. they were the source. uh, for the existence of partisan detachments. after all , where did the locals get food from, where did they get some fresh food, intelligence data was also supplied by local residents. that is, they helped, but constantly, but you could not even never see. the partisans did not say a word to them and did not give them a single potato , it was enough just to be in the village, which was to be destroyed and automatically be burned again along with all its inhabitants. this is an act of atrocities by the nazi invaders in the baturinsky district of the smolensk region, in which testimonies about punitive operations, in particular , tell about a village in which almost all civilians were killed and the inhabitants of the village. uh, after being aware of the events in this village many residents

of the surrounding villages spread around the district, tried to hide and went into the forest. behind the fugitives german punishers caught women, children and old men caught by the germans, herded into the village to the stairs and locked in a cold barn. several times a day, the punishers called the captives for interrogation on the bench and beat them with three sticks , the germans poured water on the unconscious by the hair, sat on the head and legs of their victims, beat people, twisted along the lines on the backs and broke many hands, fingers people contain stories of whole families destroyed by the nazis. aleksei vasilievich vasiliev, a disabled person, was subjected to bullying with gnarled sticks, and he was beaten until he lost

consciousness, and then by the hair and thrown into a cold room. when he came to consciousness, the germans again stripped him naked and beat him to the same torture. korneev vasily korneevich vasilyeva anastasia and drozdova natalya vasilyeva, anastasia, the germans broke the bones , mutilated his face into full teeth, broke drozdov’s hands natalia, the nazi scoundrels were taken to the cemetery and raped. then they beat they broke their fingers with sticks on their hands, making them turn into a continuous bloody mess. dov

99 welcome to the new gas station of the international teboil brand . friendly service is always waiting for you here. a cozy cafe and high-quality fuel.

you were good, like at home, how many there are in total the quality of equipment for five, come and take it, and what would not take the expert to solve any issue, then the quality is checked by m. video of the snail group from 5099 punishers tortured, the survivors of the batches of 15-20 human.

they knew very well what they were doing. schmidt's group, the 229th battalion of the so-called russian liberation army, was distinguished by cruelty among the punitive detachments. here it was, it was just formed according to this principle, there, basically, there were, uh, people from among the former prisoners of war of traitors. the schmidt group began its bloody path in the winter of 1942 during an operation or a shooting star carried out against the eleventh partisan detachment. short term. uh, the partisan brigades were dispersed from their camps. and unfortunately, this operation is once again subjected to a blow. uh, local residents who lived in villages around here in this partizan region. the first punishers from

the schmidt group checked whether the inhabitants of the village of partizan were hiding, then the territory was cleared by the ninth battalion had its own handwriting. they shot people at first adult children. the village of zalazna, safonovsky district punisher shot 450 people, obsolete women, then said that the inhabitants were driven out into the street they were forbidden to take personal belongings with them , they kept it in the cold for the night, and in the morning they drove to a ravine and later shot one of them in the back of the head. punishers. he took a murdered boy from england and hung him on a tree. of the 30,035 people from the village of leonova, which was visited by punishers , only five times survived, they survived only because the nazis mistook them for the dead. a woman who received 5 field wounds later said that all the villagers were herded into two salons of the barn and in the morning

they took the place of borschevyda. there they were photographed and they began to kill; she survived. and her mother, brother, sister, were killed, but the most terrible memory is this picture, when a three-year-old child crawls away from his mother, and a traitor in german uniform, businesslike , kills him. particularly cruel in 220 in the ninth battalion, according to the recollections of surviving witnesses, vasily tarakanov was distinguished. a senior lieutenant of the red army is surrounded, surrenders, and in the camp agrees to cooperate with the nazis and is appointed commander of the first company. that same eastern battalion, distinguished by extreme cruelty, personally kills women , pulls children out of e, just throws them into the fire from the hands of their mothers. it's hard to imagine. well , something, m-m more than some kind of inhuman.

i don't know who to be. here, in order to go to such an assistant to cockroaches in punitive operations, he was a native of the lenin region. fyodor zykov had some experience as a court assessor and, apparently, having acquired some skills. these are the actions he is in the unit. tarakanov performs the functions of an interrogator, so to speak, that is, he conducts interrogations, and conducts them, eh? with the use of the most severe torture, this process clearly gives him pleasure , hand-torturing the captured partisans. one of these was seventeen-year-old alexander prutnikov. he cut off his feet, his hands with a knife, cut out, uh, stars on his chest, cut off his ears, tongue, nose and gouged out his eyes. after the defeat of the wehrmacht at stalingrad in early

february 1943, it became clear that the collapse of the third reich was inevitable. at the front, enemy troops began to retreat, and in the occupied territories, punishers began to carry out sweeps with a vengeance. today , like 80 years ago, it is difficult to drive here from the nearest village of klimovo 4 km in the form of endless forest fields. it's hard to imagine that once there was a large village of about 90 houses, and in the local collective farm. dawn employed over 400 people.

garden we had someone, probably 15 garden, 17 bee houses. in general, they lived on a collective farm. okay now here among the trees and shot by the punitive

detachment died. on february 15, 1943, the punitive detachment of schmidt approached the village of gutorovo, people began to be shot right in the houses of the survivors , they were driven out into the street. everyone was e-e to the center of this village and destroyed in various ways. eh, literally. there even is. uh, archival ones historical facts, local residents.

eh, there one of literally the few survivors said that right up to the point that they took away, er, there were small children who were thrown for several months, they simply forced people to rush after them into the fire. uh, there other people were shot fyodor zykov shot from a car killed 147 residents. including four starikov, 32 women and 62 children , the prosecutor's office currently has an act of besieging the village of butovo by german fascist invaders. and in 1944, that is, then, when it was compiled, uh, by the citizens who signed below, i can literally quote even a couple of phrases in the act, which means that the inhabitants were shot by the germans in their huts. the huts were burned

, the corpses were burned, the citizens of the village, butovo were shot. despite the fact that it is not easy to get here every year on june 22, on the day the war began, people from neighboring villages come to the memorial to remember and commemorate those whose names are engraved on a concrete slab of those who died at the hands of the punishers without ever seeing. victory is a place thanks to these people, who come here every year to the same level, and maybe even smolensk khatyn , because the more we bring here the children of people who know history, the more we will grow relationships that will not forget these events that took place here. almost no family left fyodor rusakov found out

the years were sent. i wrote a letter to the father that i am alive and well, the first saratov male cadet, and he wrote me in detail how his dispersal took place. fedor's father is one of the few who managed to survive after punitive operation, ivan rusakov escaped only because during the shooting he fell to the floor and pretended to be dead. in a letter to his son, he described in terrible detail how the regroup was destroyed here.

and the first deduction, which was brought here to the men of paul and then the mother lay opposite the second drilled mother. mortally wounded so

they are house after house. the letter of father fyodor rusakov was read to the cadets of the school. rusakov himself promised himself that he would return from the war and find the killer. western front for the liberation of the occupied territories nazi dogs began in the spring of 1943, significant large settlements of the smolensk region, and since august 43, the troops of two fronts of the western and kalinin have been carrying out the suvorov operation and the operation of october 43, and the entire territory of the smolensk region was resisted on

september 25, 43. immediately after the liberation of smolensk , an emergency commission began to work in the region, which was supposed to establish the scale of the nazi atrocities. in one of the photographs taken after the liberation of the city, it is obvious that this after september 25, 1943. it was, but we can see that it was made, and the commission, which is located above the opened burial ground. this burial ground is located almost in the center of the city of such burial grounds. a lot was hidden in the city, found in the city, the commission recorded in smolensk during the occupation 135,000 people were destroyed. that is, in fact, the population of the city almost completely

established in 1945. what was the period of occupation of the smolensk region? or they were poisoned alive with poison and tortured in the soul with sponges in the dungeons of the gestapes over 151,000 peaceful soviet citizens from infants to very old people in the region more than 230,000 prisoners of war died 164,000 people were driven into slavery, and the total number of victims was 546,000 here, which can be clearly confirmed by archival data, 52 trees, 52 smolensk passages, the maximum number is

more than three hundred. news the victory over the nazis found fedor rusakova in germany in smolensk, he entered the service, first in the ministry of internal affairs, and then in the state security agencies. rusakov did not forget about his oath. find punish those who destroyed his family immediately after the liberation of the smolensk region, the hunt for traitors began, one after another punishers, 229 battalions ended up in the hands of the soviet state security justice did not stop their work to identify. here are the hidden criminals. well , the trials of 86 and 89, of course, received special fame in the smolensk region. and. uh, the accused of them were the same uh, punishers from the eastern battalion who burned the village vasily tarakanov and his

deputy. fedorkov was the first to find vasily tarakanov and not cockroaches of tongues they didn’t suspect that there were survivors , that is, there were people who saw with their own eyes what they were doing, and literally during the process , the same mother of two children who pulled out cockroaches from her hands told into the fire. she did not demand . they managed to shoot this bastard, but they found people who identified him as a cockroach, and he was detained in october 1986 in the yaroslavl region for that period they were 69 years old in his house. he, uh, probably knew that they would come for him, because he had 10 seconds of 28 rounds of ammunition found under his bed. at the same time, only one patron was in the patron managed to exchange him with an operational cunning, because there are fears that this person will surrender into the hands of justice authorities. in space. he probably didn't

intend to. the trial of one of the most brutal executioners of the schmidt group took place in the smolensk house of culture of railway workers. where is your husband? she says her husband is in the army, he is in your partisans and here something got up, they immediately shouted, light the house , they kept the street. i cried, they beat me, brother, the other day the ring jumped out in no way in the middle of the hut, and he, it means they shot at him, now he fell and lay there for a long time , he screamed convulsions, and when they left, they pinned him in this, and the girl, this twelve-year-old jumped out it was through the window, then they grabbed her and threw her. live fire, flowed and families destroyed the 29th battalion among the witnesses were fyodor rusakov and his sister. we were the commander turned out

to understand? in this spirit poured out my sister others are here, which are no longer in the world. i ask you, the judge, please shoot him so that he does not exist on our land, so that he does not exist at all after 43 years. after the tragedy in the village of gutorovo on february 15, on the same day, when accomplices killed more than 140 people. the tribunal sentenced vasily tarakanov to death, the investigators continued to search for the last punisher of the shveit group. fedorakov. he chewed through the tver region and worked

at a local hormone factory. imagine a person who did such things. he then lived a very long life. and e was in good standing, he is both a social activist and a war veteran and tunes musical instruments at a children's music school. no one can think that a traitor to the motherland is sitting in front of you and just such an executioner , the state security officers got on the trail of fyodor zykov in 1988, when the employees of the state security committee came to arrest him and he was rolling on the floor. he knew that sooner or later it would happen in his house. found newspaper clippings. he followed very closely. uh, trials for criminals. and when he found out that tarakanov had been shot, he told himself that he would be next before being arrested. fyodor zykov asked the kgb officers for permission to play the harmony for the last time. just as

he once played during the torture of civilians and smolensk trees. played, you bastard. uh, farewell to the slavyanka, he behaved such blasphemy at the summoning court. yushche well was, so to speak, a witness statement. soviet statistical republics may 5 , 1989, the city of smolensk fyodor zykov was sentenced to death on may 5, 1989. in in 1990, the punisher's sentence was carried out. today, a decade after
