"'These non-humans were standing there, we were asking them to let my son and my brother-in-law go. They said they would interrogate them and then let them go,' Vovk said, recalling the ordeal with difficulty. She said the Russian soldiers were speaking a “non-Slavic language” between themselves, leading her to believe they could be Chechens.
An hour later the women heard gunshots from the area of the base. The next morning they again went to seek out the soldiers, and they saw three dead bodies in front of the building. At the back there were another three bodies, including those of Hladky and Mohyrchuk. Their hands were tied behind their backs and they had been shot in the head, Vovk said.

"The soldier in charge of the prisoners, who never gave his name or rank, appeared and said he had been ordered to provide “four corpses”, Didyk recalled.
(...)
“He said he didn’t want to do it … he had tears in his eyes … but he said it was his orders and he had to shoot four people. He asked for volunteers.”
(...)
"When they left the hut, in a mortar crater in the cemetery Didyk saw the bodies of two of the men who had been taken the night before. At another spot in the cemetery he saw a third corpse.
His father, Oleksandr, also saw the bodies the next day, and recalled that one “had his brains spilling out”."
