‘I incredibly regret that I went to serve in the Azov regiment, on the one hand. But, on the other hand, if not me, then someone else would be in my place. I don’t hate a guy I don’t know enough to let him go through all this hell’. This is an interview with the captured Azov fighter Pavel Ilnitsky, who talks about his service in the battalion. Ukrainian radicals, neo-Nazis and foreign mercenaries joined Azov. In Mariupol, they shot at civilians, used them as human shields, and hit houses with tanks. In the battalion, Ilnitsky heard some fighters call for the return of the Donbass by force and its inhabitants ‘kicked out to Russia’. At the end of June, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation will consider a lawsuit to recognise Azov as a terrorist organisation. In Russia, Azov fighters face 10 to 20 years in prison if passed. Ilnitsky’s revelations will be included in the new RT Documentary film, don’t miss it. #Donbass#interview Follow: https://t.me/rtdocumentary
