Mass grave of Wagner soldiers with PMC symbols discovered in Novosibirsk, Russia

This was reported by Sibir.Realii with reference to a video sent by an anonymous source.

The footage shows dozens of fresh graves in the Gusynobrodsky cemetery block 7B. Almost all of the graves have wreaths with the yellow star and black cross, the symbol of the Wagner PMC. According to the tombstones, the victims died between November 2022 and January 2023.

There were no graves in this area on satellite images of previous years.

The source spoke about a new, currently empty block next to 7B.

In April, local media reported that four natives of Tuva were buried in a cemetery in Novosibirsk, three of them - Erelchin Chechen-ool, Mongush Charish-ool, Kherel Ondar - who were convicted of drug trafficking, theft, fraud and robbery.

The grave of another resident of Tuva, 34-year-old Vasily Sedip-Balchir, convicted of theft, was also found. In 2020, he was sentenced to 2.5 years in a strict regime for theft and illegal drug trafficking. The criminal died on January 10, 2023.

Nasim Loskutov, a 22-year-old resident of Krasnoyarsk, who was convicted of theft in 2018, 2020, and 2022, is also buried at the Gusinobrodsky cemetery. His last sentence was 3.5 years in a maximum security prison. Loskutov died last year on December 4. Nearby is the grave of Denis Pichugin, a 31-year-old resident of the Omsk region who was repeatedly convicted last June and sentenced to a year in a maximum security prison for theft. He died on December 29, 2022.
