Russian soldier accused of war crimes in absentia after audio files intercepted
The dossier of evidence against him includes phone calls between the soldier and his wife and friend intercepted during a months-long investigation into the Russian attack near the city of Izium last June. The audio files were shared exclusively with CNN in advance of a news conference in Kharkiv to announce the charges on Tuesday.
Russian soldiers were based around 30 meters away from the couple’s car, according to police, so it was too dangerous for Ukrainian troops to extract the couple. So they sent the drone back after recharging it and attaching a white piece of paper to it with the words “follow me” – to guide Ponomarova to safer territory. She saw a drone overhead, but wasn’t sure whose side it was on. “I turned and just fell on my knees and I just screamed with the most agonizing cry,” said Valeria Ponomarova.
