Soldier’s Wife Says Ukrainian Kids Should Be ‘Cut’ Up

“In what is perhaps a disturbing sign of the effectiveness of Russian propaganda over the past two months, the wife of a Russian soldier in Ukraine has reportedly been caught urging him to torture Ukrainian children who refuse to support Moscow,” the Daily Beast reports.

From the recording: “I would inject them with drugs, and if it worked, I’d look into their eyes and say ‘Die, suffer.’ I would cut their wee wees and carve stars out of their backs, and actually cut out parts of their ear every day, their finger, so that they’d hurt so bad.”

When even her husband appears taken aback, she shoots back: “I just hate these Ukrainians, I hate them.”
