Investigators call him the main suspect in the crime in Novomykhailivka.
Volunteers of the “OSINT Bees” monitoring project have identified a Russian man who is probably involved in the killing of civilians in Novomykhailivka (Berdyansky District, Zaporizhzhia Region).
As the investigator Irakli Komakhidze said, on November 23, Russian military abducted two citizens – Serhiy Golubenko (40 years old) and Mykola Khomnikov (32 years old) from a house on Merzlyak Street in Novomykhailivka. Then the occupiers took them to a forest strip. There they shot Ukrainians and left their bodies.

The situation in the Zaporozhye direction
Russian invaders control about half of the territory of the Zaporizhzhia region.
Under occupation, in particular, Energodar, where the nuclear power plant is located, which the occupiers are attacking and where provocations are being staged, Melitopol, Berdyansk.
The enemy regularly fires at populated areas controlled by Ukraine. In particular, the regional center and suburbs.
As military expert Oleksandr Kovalenko explained, the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Zaporozhye direction has not yet been launched – the conditions for this have not yet been formed. Roman Kostenko, a cyborg, military man of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and secretary of the defense committee of the Verkhovna Rada, predicts that soon there will be an intensification of hostilities here.
