The owner of a war-zone mobile hospital in eastern Ukraine, Gennadiy Druzenko, has revealed that he instructed his doctors to ‘castrate’ captured Russian soldiers.
On Ukraine-24, Druzenko said of captured injured Russian soldiers, “I have always been a great humanist and said that if a man is wounded, he is no longer an enemy but a patient.”
‘But now I’ve given strict orders to castrate all [captured Russian] men, because they’re cockroaches, not people.’
Druzenko’s mobile hospital has employed 500 doctors, both male and female, since 2014, according to Mail Online.
As a trained lawyer, he founded the First Voluntary Mobile Hospital, which places civilian doctors and nurses in conflict zones near separatist republics in eastern Ukraine.
On the Ukraine-24 channel, he also told famous Russian TV host Yevgeny Kiselyov, ‘Believe, all doctors who saved the patients – Russians will die here.’ ‘A large number of people die.’ Those who come here will recall their nightmare on Ukrainian soil, just as the Germans recall Stalingrad.
The Russian Investigative Committee has opened a criminal investigation into the comments, which means that if Druzenko is apprehended, he will face a trial under Russian law.
The committee’s chairman, Alexander Bastrykin, a former university classmate of Vladimir Putin’s, has filed a criminal complaint over his castration request, which is “contrary to the law and the norms of medical ethics.”
“The head of the Ukrainian Mobile Hospital project, Gennady Druzenko, called for violence against captured soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces live on a Ukrainian TV channel.” Bastrykin said
‘He gave this instruction to the doctors of mobile hospitals.’
Druzenko is set to be put on Russia’s international wanted list.
