    Pro Russian sources say Givi was killed by a bomb explosion in his office

    Statement from #Zakharchenko blaming #Ukraine for Givi's death in 3..2..1..

    Here we go: #DPR chief Zaharchenko convenes emergency meeting on death of Givi
    http://liveuamap.com/en/2017/8-febru...ency-meeting#…

    The "Commander of Battalion Somalia" was killed in a "suicide attack", the "Operational Command of the People's Republic of Donetsk" says.

    I remember Zaharchenko vowing he will march to #Kiev after Motorola assassination. Expect smth similar. It only matters what Russia wants.

    Pro-Russian sources say Ukrainian terrorist, war criminal and world-class dancer Mikhail Tolstykh aka. "Givi" killed in Donetsk

    Yes, a stealth Ukro-DRG infiltrated in the Somali gang base with a RPO Shmel and made the perfect shot
    Do you think that it was a suicide attack or a hit-and-run?

    The damage seems to indicate that the RPG was launched from outside the building rather than detonated at point blank range.

    Could it be yet another instance of Russia "tidying up" which the DNR is blaming on Ukraine?

    Thoughts?

    Was in fact a thermobaric RPG round....that exploded in his office.....office was completely burnt out....shades of GRU Spetsnaz history.....

    Givi's assassination brought to daylight atrocities #Russian SOF did during 2004 Beslan school siege - morons used thermobaric warheads!
    186 children killed by burning....
    Firstly, haven't we already discussed giving fair warning before posting graphic images, particularly when they're tangential to the topic at hand?

    Secondly, my mother thought that Givi wasn't terrible looking.

    I think Givi will be next for termination. He's stood next to Motorola at Donetsk Airport while Ukraine cyborgs dig dead bodies from rubble

    Ok...post warning...Graphic....BUT and there is always as but....war and terrorism attacks are always graphic.

    Maybe this GRU school hostage attack might in fact shock enough people into believing GRU is capable of a number of things....terrorism is one of them....

    BUT WAIT..Trump believes just the opposite...that Russia is not capable of such events.....nor running influence operations in the US.....

    The use of a thermobaric RPG round as an assassination weapon is not tangential to the use of thermobarbic weapons to clear a schoolhouse of terrorists with children as hostages.....

    Indicators of who used them bridge the past and that is not tangential.....ruthlessness is ruthlessness.....the user signature is what one looks for....

    So you're suggesting that it was yet another "inside job"?

    Given the insurgent "turnover" of late, Ukraine had to be blamed at some point. Otherwise, whoever was making those cars that kept blowing up would need to issue a recall...

    Azor...if this video reflects the current moment in time Givi was one of the first Russian born Ukrainians to join the merry band of Girkin.....along with the Russian born Ukrainian Motorola.....many of those that first joined their merry band came from what we might call blue collar low paying jobs and understood how to turn their new positions into war lords with gangs not patriotic locally recruited and led militias fighting for the good of New Russia...

    Take it back...they fought but only to line their own personal pockets and bank accounts....and as the fighting has gotten more intense and the UAF now is just as well armed and better trained and led..you notice that many like Givi no longer are found on the front lines...but in the rear doing their smuggling...drugs.... and extortion war against their own citizens....

    This pro-rebel tribute video (in Russian) gives an idea of how much Givi mattered to the rebel cause ...BTW...no mention of his starting his work career as a store security guard....

    Azor....something is brewing inside Russia...Putin created this unit as his last line of color revolt defense after Maidan and Crimea....they have the Duma passed and Putin signed authority to fire on even civilian peaceful demonstrators....

    Deputy PM Rogozin called up to "arm to the teeth" #Russian National Guard.
    It's Putin's last line of defence.


    MAYBE this is the cause....for a bad case of nerves.....

    Russia cheered when US pulled troops out of Europe now flips out when they come back....cannot have it both ways.....

    Head of Mosfilm, Karen Shakhnazarov, claims Givi was assassinated to derail meeting of Trump & Putin. Chef-d'oeuvre!

    Ah...here is another version of let's blame the UAF and SBU for killing a war criminal they badly wanted to place in front of the ICC for war crimes...

    Crazy story by Hovaya: Givi shot himself in leg to escape battlefield Avdiivika. That's why his own men killed him
    https://www.novayagazeta.ru/articles...pod-avdeevkoy#

    Separatist fighter tells Novaya Gazeta that he killed his cdr Givi after battlefield quarrel (in which Givi ordered shelling own men)

    Many srcs confirm a Givi's unit got shelled by his artillery. Plus 40% of Somali slain by his stupidity @ #Avdiivka

    BTW...also reports that this brigade had several GRU Spetsnaz attached to it for security reasons....then suddenly pulled out after the attack...

    "DNR" doesn't want to collect their KIAs from Promka, near #Avdiivka. These two cargo-200 from Vostok batt. are there since 2 weeks.
