On June 11th, an \u201cAnti-Maidan\u201d or anti-<\/span>ethnic-cleansing<\/a><\/span>, site, posted to youtube excerpts from previously unpublished press-conference Q&A-session statements by Koval, which were made perhaps immediately following the Defense Minister\u2019s private meeting on June 4th with top NATO officials, who endorsed his plan. This youtube was titled\u00a0\u201cSecretary of Defense [Mikhailo Koval] About Concentration Camp for Eastern Ukraine People.\u201d<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n He was shown saying:<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThere will be a thorough filtration of people. There will be special filtration measures put in place. We will filter out people, including women, who are linked to separatism, who were committing crimes on Ukrainian territory, crimes related to terrorist activities. We have a lot of information regarding this, and we have a formidable framework to combat this, and respective power structures will carry out this operation. Besides, this is a serious issue, related to the fact that people will be resettled to other regions.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n The people shown in the video below were not \u201cresettled to other regions.\u201d These were instead among the ones who were slated for immediate processing. They were forced into a ditch at night, and shot. Presumably, dirt was then immediately pushed over them (or over their corpses, for the ones that were dead).<\/span><\/p>\n Here<\/a> is that video. The interesting background as to how this video came to be uploaded to the Web, instead of merely filed in an accounts-payables office of the Ukrainian military in order to verify that the perpetrators had done their jobs and needed to be paid the contracted amount for the people whom they had disposed of, and for the corpses that they had produced and presumably buried, for the Ukrainian Government, is well explained at the site linked-to below. It\u2019ll be presented here, with full credit to them and to everyone who has enabled this information to become public at liveleak, youtube, and other sites, though those individuals are anonymous, for understandable reasons. Here, then, that is (with its typo uncorrected):<\/span><\/p>\n \u2013-<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cUkrainian fascists execute locals that sympathize with Donetsk People\u2019s Republic \u2014 video\u201d<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n By Lviv | October 23, 2014<\/span><\/p>\n Car with a mounted video camera belonging to members of Ukrainian punitive nationalist battalion was caputred earlier this week by self-defense forces of Donetsk People\u2019s Republic.
