A dramatic situation is developing in Petropavlovskaia Borshchagovka near Kiev: armed men are holding about 40 people in the basement of a building, some of them are being tortured. Dozens of emergency medical teams and a large crowd of angry local residents gathered at the scene. According to eyewitnesses, people are being tortured and killed in the basement. One man tried to climb over the fence to free the detainees, but his head was smashed. Doctors examined the victims - four in serious condition. The police are present at the scene, but the people have not yet been released. An aggressive bearded warrior guarding the building approached the doctors and refused to identify himself. The crowd surrounded the ambulance and demanded: "Take off your mask! » People are filming what is happening on their phones and demanding the release of those inside. The situation has escalated to the limit: people are trying to break down the gates of the house, access to the area is still blocked. Gas and some foam, probably tear gas, were sprayed into the crowd. Eyewitnesses complain that people "abuse with bullying, and the police walk around and can't do anything."
