Journalists of the #RFE/#RL's Schemes investigative project have obtained access to the private correspondence of #Russian major general #Roman_Demurchiev.

Currently serving as deputy commander of the #20th Combined Arms Army, he assists in overseeing subordinate troops located, among other areas, in the #Lyman direction in #Ukraine.

◾️ In his messages, #Demurchiev complains about the condition of the Russian army, speaks negatively about #Moscow's leadership and security services, and expresses a desire to leave both the military and the war. He also uses harsh language when referring to certain commanders, including #Mikhail_Teplinsky and #Oleg_Popov.

◾️ A separate portion of the chats concerns the torture, abuse, and killing of #Ukrainian prisoners of war - war crimes he discusses as if they were routine.

Among the materials is footage from a #Russian thermal-imaging drone, recorded in December 2024 near #Makiivka, showing the killing of #Ukrainian servicemen who had surrendered.

In his exchanges with fellow officers & his wife, the general repeatedly mentioned the severed ears of #Ukrainian_POWs. As proof of his claims, #Demurchiev shared graphic photographs. In one such exchange with his wife, he sent a photo of several ears & said he would "string them into a garland and give them as a gift."
