“We arrived, we were 150 and they gave the order to clean the area by all means and organize the defense. And we would go and kill everyone. There were women, men, retirees and children, do you understand? recalled the former mercenary, who would have given a coup de grace to a five-year-old girl.
Uldarov indicated that the mercenaries complied to the letter of the instructions of Prigozhinthat He ordered “not to allow anyone to get out alive.”
