In an effort to damage us, Kyiv killed its own soldiers. From now on, Ukraine has to realise that such attacks first and foremost harm its own citizens.

Details: Kadyrov also said that he has ordered his military commanders to no longer take Ukrainian soldiers prisoner: “I ordered the commanders who are fighting on the frontline to not take prisoners. To kill [enemy forces] and to step up the fighting.”
