The owner of a war-zone mobile hospital in eastern Ukraine has told a Ukrainian TV interviewer that he has instructed his doctors to ‘castrate’ captured Russian soldiers.<\/p>\n

Gennadiy Druzenko, 49, told Ukraine-24 about his alleged order, but it is unclear if it was bravado or a genuine order that would break the Geneva Conventions.<\/p>\n

Discussing captured injured Russian soldiers, Druzenko said: ‘I have always been a great humanist and said that if a man is wounded, he is no longer an enemy but a patient.<\/p>\n

‘But now [I gave] very strict orders to castrate all [captured Russian] men, because they are cockroaches, not people.’<\/p>\n

Since 2014, some 500 doctors – male and female – have worked with Druzenko’s mobile hospital.<\/p>\n

A lawyer by training, he set up the First Voluntary Mobile Hospital which deploys civilian doctors and nurses in the conflict zone close to the separatist republics in eastern Ukraine.<\/p>\n

He also told famous Russian TV host Yevgeny Kiselyov on the Ukraine-24 channel: ‘Believe, all doctors who saved the patients – Russians will die here. Die in large numbers.<\/p>\n

‘Those who [come here] will remember their nightmare on Ukrainian soil.<\/p>\n

‘Like the Germans remember Stalingrad.’<\/p>\n

The Russian Investigative Committee opened a criminal case into the comments, which means that if Druzenko is captured he will face trial under Russian law.<\/p>\n

‘The head of the Ukrainian Mobile Hospital project, Gennady Druzenko, called for violence against captured soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces live on a Ukrainian TV channel.<\/p>\n

‘He gave this instruction to the doctors of mobile hospitals.’<\/p>\n

The head of the committee Alexander Bastrykin, a former university classmate of Vladimir Putin, initiated a criminal case over his castration demand which is ‘contrary to the law and the norms of medical ethics.’<\/p>\n
