Liquidation of Luhansk collaborator Filiponenko is signal to all war criminals - intelligence

Yusov said this during a telethon.

"A war criminal has been eliminated. This is a very important signal to all traitors, collaborators, and all those who were involved in war crimes that a just punishment is inevitable. There are two options: surrender or wait for retribution to come in another way," he said.

According to him, Filiponenko was responsible for organizing torture chambers for military and civilian hostages and he even personally tortured people.

"Despite the fact that he did not formally hold any key positions in the occupation administrations, he was an important figure in that rasсist ecosystem. The operation was prepared for a long time, carefully, and the security factor for the performers was also taken into account," Yusov noted.

• On November 8, in the temporarily occupied Luhansk, the former head of the LPR People's Militia, Mykhailo Filiponenko, was killed as a result of a car explosion.
