KYIV, April 13 ------ Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky denounced Russian "beasts" after a video surfaced on social media purporting to show the decapitation of a Ukrainian prisoner of war.
"There is something that no one in the world can ignore: how easily these beasts kill," Zelensky said in a video address released on social media. "We won't forget anything, nor will we forgive murderers," he added, vowing to bring justice to his war-torn nation. "This video... The execution of a Ukrainian captive... The world must see it," Zelensky added in the video address.
The video, which lasts around one minute 40 seconds, shows a masked man in camouflage decapitating another man in uniform. Other voices are heard encouraging the attacker in Russian. After the man is decapitated, a voice is heard saying that the head should be sent "to the commander". The victim's vest bearing the Ukrainian trident can also be seen in the footage.
