Text translation: When Russian soldiers searched one of the houses near Chernihiv and realized that the uniform of the Ukrainian Armed Forces was there, they decided to transport its inhabitants outside the village. Graves were dug for the three brothers. Then their legs and hands were tied and their eyes were covered. Only one of them survived. He shared his story with the media.

The man and his two brothers were captured by the Russians in the Chernihiv region. The invaders appeared at the house of the Kuliczenko brothers on March 18, where they found the uniform of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which belonged to their younger brother Yevgeny. During the search, they also found my grandfather's military medals. According to Nikolai, this was what prompted the Russians to torture their siblings.

Nikolai said that his brother Yevgeny was led outside the house, and when he knelt, the soldiers began to beat him with a truncheon. Then they were taken outside the village. There, the invaders dug graves for their siblings, tied each of them hands and feet, and put blindfolds on their eyes. A shot was fired at the men's heads and then thrown into the grave. The invaders were to then cover the bodies with earth and depart.

Nikolai managed to survive, get out of the grave and tell the story. He is alive because the bullet has passed through his cheek and has not damaged vital organs. Despite his bound limbs, he managed to escape. He found shelter and help with the local people.

According to 24tv.ua, the man had to travel 40 kilometers to get to his village. Only after the Russians left Chernihiv Oblast could he be examined in the hospital. Nikolai had two ribs fractured. Now SBU employees are trying to establish the identity of Russian criminals.
