Such casual cruelty, such lack of humanity in a young person. This is what happens when a dictator rules a country for a long time.

He just admitted he did a war crime

Killing another by accident is hard to live with. Killing an innocent on purpose, even under orders, is harder to live with if you have a soul.

Worst these people should not be called soldiers,soldiers don’t behave like these terrorists

Those who shoot and kill unarmed civilians at cold blood cannot be called soldiers, they're assassins. Glory and peace to Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 The whole world stands with Zelenskyy and Ukraine 🤝🤝🤝🤝

THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS ACTION. HE CANNOT CLAIM THAT HE WAS ORDERED!

He knew what they were doing.

The "just following orders" excuse does not work! In the end it was his decision to shoot

I didn't see or hear any remorse.

If he survived to become a POW, the lieutenant who issued the order for Vadim to shoot the civilian should certainly face the same tribunal.

From vietnam, my greatest respect for Ukrainian heroes because of your bravery.Thank you heroes. 🙏✍💣💣💣

At least that war criminal confessed. And I hope the charges will be severe. There's no excuse for murdering innocent civilians!! Ever!! Slava Ukraine!! 🇺🇦❤️🇺🇸✝️✌️

Guilty period. As a soldier you are responsible for carrying out the act of murder. He should have refused the illegal order to murder a civilian. JMHO

He could have fired to miss and let the civilian escape - but he didn't! 🤬

FIRING SQUAD ‼️😠 MAKE READY ‼️ AIM.. ‼️ FIRE‼️😠

He should see no mercy. None.

Inhuman, not professional soldiers, war criminals! Victory to Ukraine!🇺🇦Slava Ukraini!🇺🇦

War criminals shooting civilians for no reason. It's very disturbing how no sign of empathy for his victims. How can they decide who lives? Forced labour until they fix all damage done shall be. Sadly they can't fix the killed, tortured and rapped. He only regrets being captured

Everyone who kills knows what they're doing. An eye for an eye is the only justice for this.

There's no place on this Earth for people like him.

You can’t help people like this. The fact that he didn’t question the order to kill a civilian stand him against a wall and do us all a favour GLORY to UKRAINE

You can't exchange this guy He must be jailed for life in Ukrainian prison

🚜🇺🇦💙💛 Pen is mightier than sword! Slava Ukraine HEROYAM SLAVA

Wow killed an innocent civilian on his phone. Hmm well yes

Make an example of him, put him on trial, broadcast it for all to see and it might act as a deterrent to other Russian's thinking of doing the same things.

The Ukrainians are showing more restraint than I would have, which I will commend. Had it been me in their position, this guy would be rotting in a ditch.

I hope he gets what he deserves. No mercy!

He wasn't tricked into it, he knew what he has doing. He was told to kill a civilian and he did. No forgiveness, no pity, no mercy. Lock him up and throw away the key

We are sure that as soon as Ukraine will take their land back we will discover new Butcha sites, because this is Russian tactic.

That's Murder if War is not declared? Or a War Crime?💙💛Slava Ukraini!!!💙💛

Still MUST face penalty according to Ukraine and international law, NO excuse JUST following order!

So sad for the loss of civilian who become victim of criminal politician like russia putin...May Ukrainian defeat russia putin..stay strong ❤️

This is Vadim Shishimarin, the soldier who was just sentenced to life in prison for this crime by Ukrainian authorities.

There's 1 case to bag n tag... he's done !!!

May God Bless Ukraine!

I'm sure his parents are so proud, coward

Confession to war crimes.

Self-confessed war criminal. He CANNOT be repatriated in a prisoner exchange and MUST face the consequences.

War criminals.

Yeah, the old "just following orders" defence is not valid. This is a confession to a war crime, so he should just be stood against a wall and removed from the equation, instead of being a burden on resources.

it is indeed that easy to kill a person who cannot defend itself.. you fire a burst from your gun, he falls and you move on.. that's it..

Cant beleive a young person can be such cruel😭😭😭🤬🤬🤬🇺🇦🇺🇦

War criminal.

GOD PLEASE BE WITH UKRAINIANS 💙💛

“…and we moved on” Chilling 🤬 SLAVA UKRAINE ✊🏼🇺🇦💙💛🙏🏼🌻☮️🕊❤️

Slava Ukraini! 💙💛💙💛💙💛💙💛

Glory to Ukrain!

You just confess to a cold hearted murder, boy!

Heartless!!!

War criminals need to be held accountable.

It’s proof that atrocities are happening.

Murderer, he should never be set free. He doesn't seem to care at all. You can guarantee it wasn't just 1 civilian he killed.

Absolute monsters. If he had any conscience at all he would have disobeyed that order and then just left or surrendered.

He doesn't look pleased with his actions I dont believe any of them really want to be there but are forced. It is so sad that putin strikes fear into people. He must go and will shortly i hope and pray. G-d bless Ukraine. We are all praying

Horrifying

God only gives mercy to the merciful, the merciless like that soldier and his higher-ranked general get no mercy for eternity. The 10 Commandments laws are very clear especially "Thou shall not kill the innocent, Thou shall not lie as in bear false witness against the innocent, Thou shalt not steal the life of the innocent....etc."

Why don’t all these Russian speakers just move to Russia if they live it enough- it’s huge there must be enough space for them all

16 years old punk command which person is suitable for shooting??!!

Slava Ukrainii😘🇺🇦

He needs to say more...

Justice

That's Hague for you boy.

morder !

Won’t be going home for many many years

Murderers deserve the death penalty.

Some people below have made a good point. I guess "I was just following orders" doesn't work any better when you're Russian than it did for the Germans.

"Russian speakers are being infringed upon" No they haven't been actually. Not yet, at least.

For as long as it takes! Slava Ukraini and her supporters!

Following orders isn't a excuse but I'm sure the superior had a gun ready to shoot him if he refused to do as he was ordered. He's a war criminal and his decision was to fire. Maybe unreluctantly or coerced to fire but his action killed a innocent person for fun. This mentality is from WW2 with the Nazis just lining them up in front of each other to see how many they can kill with 1 shot. Nazi Soldiers took it as a challenge and a game to kill as many as possible as fast as possible.

Taped witness statements will play well for war crimes trials. These guys may all disappear.

We need justice, not revenge. But justice nonetheless. Slava Ukraini

"Just fogoving ogders". Where did we hear that before?

Of couse, "only carrying out orders" is not a get-out-of-jail card, and he knows it. And that's as it should be. But to understand the context, the vid "Russian soldier shot by his own for helping civilians" (currently on Kabi Kings channel) is a dramatic account of one Russian hero who paid with his life for his refusal to shoot civilians, and another who was badly wounded. Well worth seeing.

Send him to Den Haag… This is an important Witness and War criminal. Not even the Chinese can bs themselves out of this, if he’d confess.

Why the necessity to confess to this crime?

This guy straight "crime and punishment"ed himself. Honestly I thought that book was stupid. And this kid is young grew up in a fascit country and probably had no idea what he just confessed to.

With a rifle against civilians: 👹 When is captured: 👼

He's extremely calm and tough for a 21-year-old boy. Think about what your brothers and sons are like at 21, enjoying studies and video games at university? The Pity of War.

The madness begets more insane madness. Irrevocable damage to all involved and for what?

Hopefully he can spend the rest of his days in prison haunted by his actions. And maybe one day he'll have earned mercy and forgiveness. Maybe. But that will be a long time from now.

These people, on both sides, will be scarred for life.

Russian soldiers defence We just obeyed orders Being a soldier in a war isn’t a licence to deliberately kill innocent civilians. To his credit, Putin says we are not targeting civilians This soldier therefore was not obeying orders He was acting as a murderer. It does show that war crimes are being committed.

He would be much happier playing csgo at home, now he's stuck as pow in Ukraine.

I seen what these sadistic monsters are capable of the shouldn’t deserve a chance at trial…I post its link but its uncensored stuff here on UKposts just have too look for it yourself nearly traumatized myself.

I hope he is proud of himself. What a hero. My understanding is that he admitted to a war crime.

Life prison

Evil😡

Ukranie's jail Will be his home a sure long time

💙 G-D BLESS UKRAINE! 💛 An American Jew.

I was just following orders has been tried before, circa 1945.........it Failed !

Brutal Russian war criminal, he murdered a civilian, clearly does not care, lock him up for life Ukraine !!

Very brave....NOT!!!!

evil

This is NOT thrue.

Can you create a life? Then you should not take a life...Gandalf LTR

"We prescribed for them therein: A life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, an ear for an ear and a tooth for a tooth; and for wounds, an equal retaliation. Then, if one forgives it, that will be expiation for him. Those who do not judge according to what Allah has sent down, they are the unjust." Maide, 45.

The news media is flooding airtime with the story of this Russian soldier facing war crimes. American political pundits in their suits and ties are pounding their desks against this young 21 year old soldier. They salivate justice while they stuff millions of advertising dollars in their pockets. On the surface this story is about right and wrong but it isn't. Like all stories it's about money and power but I'm jumping ahead of myself. First off, this soldier, Vadim Shyshimarin, should face war crimes. I'm not dismissing the horrible murder of the 62 year old innocent Ukrainian civilian. What I hope to see in the trial is Vadim's social media accounts and whether or not he was a young conscript simply following orders and pressured to commit murder or whether he believes Putin's lies about Ukrainian's being Nazi's and derelicts. Vadim was a sergeant in the Russian army which indicates that he performed well enough and was a willingly perpetuating Putin's lies. Uncovering Vadim's past will explain the present. We need to know who was Vadim's superior who gave the order to murder the Ukrainian civilian. This war crimes trial will hopefully answer the questions we need to know and Vadim should face a lifetime in prison. Still, despite Vadim's murderous act, I can't help but feel he too is a victim in the struggle for money and power. In America we like to say the no one is above the law. We know this a joke. Trump incited an insurrection and yet, while he plays golf amongst palm trees and the ocean breeze, his foot soldiers are jailed. Before you say this is liberal gobbledygook let me also say the Obama lied about the accuracy of drones that murdered innocent civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan and that George W. Bush lied about weapons of mass destruction. Why aren't these leaders tried for war crimes? Because those with money and power write the rules. America refuses to participate in the International Criminal Court for fear that our leaders would be subject to war crimes investigation. America is above the law and yet our media is quick to condemn Russia's war crimes. Again, Russia is committing war crimes but will Putin, his oligarchs, or his generals be held accountable? Then there's the Syrian President, Bashar Al-assad, who used chemical weapons against his own people and the world stood by and did nothing. This young Russian soldier, however, is a different story. What he did was a real war crime and he will be made an example of. The rabbit hole is deep... and dark. Privatized American commandos were paid to assassinate political opponents, aka terrorists, in Yemen and yet these terrorists were recipients of the Nobel Peace Prize. Will these commandos face war crimes? We all know that the rules for war crimes were written by those with money and power. The news on our television screens is propaganda perpetuating the illusion of righteousness. We too are a murderous nation. "No one is above the law" is bullish*t.
