The enemy is not handing over the bodies of the teenagers killed in Berdyansk for burial to their relatives. Instead, in an attempt to cover up their crimes, the Russians transported the bodies of the dead to Melitopil.



This was reported on Facebook by Olga Reshetilova, coordinator of the Media Initiative for Human Rights.

Yesterday, 29 June, 16-year-olds Tigran Ohanisyan and Nikita Khanganov, who were killed in temporarily occupied Berdyansk, were to have been buried. However, the parents were not given the children's bodies.

Throughout yesterday the families waited for investigators' permission to remove the bodies from the morgue, but did not receive it. The morgue was surrounded by the military for the entire day.
Today it became known that the bodies were allegedly taken to Melitopil for expert examination," the human rights activist wrote.

She noted that this is how the Russians try to hide the traces of their crimes because it is pronounced: "that a murder was committed, the guys were shot at point-blank range and to kill them".

As previously reported, the Russians brutally murdered two teenagers in temporarily occupied Berdyansk. Both boys were involved in a partisan movement that was committing sabotage against the occupiers. They are believed to have allegedly killed a Russian policeman and another collaborator. The teenagers and their families have been persecuted for a long time.
