‘It’s a mortar shell; it’s an eighty. I mustn’t touch it. See, I’m holding it`, little Rita said in 2016. For her, ammunition replaced toys; she learned to understand them. Her village of Zaitsevo was in the Grey Zone - near the front line. Like hundreds of other settlements, it was shelled by Ukrainian troops almost every day for eight years.
Rita’s story is in our video and film ‘Donbass: The Grey Zone’.

In Benin, many children skip school because they are sent to voodoo convents. They are given new names and are forbidden to use their old ones or speak their native language. Families send their children to a monastery to appease the spirits if parents or a child falls sick. But it’s not easy to go back. A release ceremony costs $50, an unaffordable sum for most families.
Watch the video in our post to learn what happens inside voodoo convents.
To know more about the voodoo monasteries, watch the premiere of our film Voodoo Brides.

‘When our house caught fire, we jumped out. And here, the tank was standing and pointed its muzzle at us. And the men say: ‘Well, shoot. What are you looking at?’ [Only] then did he take it and turn the muzzle away’. Tamara Antonova tells how, during a bombardment, together with her neighbours, she jumped out of the basement directly in front of an Azov* battalion tank.
Her home is next to the Azovstal plant, where the Azov* militants are located. Tamara could not leave: her sister Lydia was lying in the apartment. RT and a Russia-DPR humanitarian convoy team managed to bring them out.

‘They beat me with a bat on my arms and legs. Then they beat me on the head, on the neck with boxing blows ... Such a large fighter sat down on top, squeezed me with his legs from both sides. And they put a rag on his face and began to pour water. This water torture is called waterboarding’.
Hieromonk Theophan recalls how Ukrainian special services tortured him in 2015. He spent a little over a month in captivity. However, the man says faith in God gave him strength. Hieromonk describes the Ukrainian military as a new type of fascists.
Theophan's story is in our video and film ‘Donbass War: Summer 2014’.

‘I said, ‘you see, someday there will come those who’ll bring Nazism back’, and here they are’. These are the words of a man who went through the Minsk ghetto as a child; he was almost three.
Vladimir Trahtenberg remembers the horrors of Nazism: ‘We would compete, who’d hold his breath the longest so that if the Germans came, they’d think we were already dead’.
RT Documentary with correspondent Paula Slier went to Belarus to meet the Minsk ghetto survivors. About 120,000 Jews passed through it, and only 10,000 survived. Few remain now. In our interviews, former prisoners share their stories about the Minsk ghetto and reflect on the prosperity of Nazism in the modern world.

‘I’m here for five minutes, and then I’m told the first five people they found it was five decapitated heads. They were all civilians.’ American journalist George Eliason shows a grave near Luhansk. Most civilians murdered by Ukraine’s military and political leadership are buried here.
George has been covering events in the Donbass since 2014. He compares the atrocities of Ukrainian nationalist battalions to the crimes of ISIS*: ‘Armies don’t do this. Maybe ISIS does this. And what do you do with groups like ISIS? How is Ukraine different?’ George has repeatedly sent pieces to Europe and the US media about such crimes. ‘My hope is that this begins the process to bring this into an international forum.’
This is a clip from our film “Donbass: Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow”.

‘Russians have called that the ‘special military operation for a reason. It’s not war. Russia went out of its way to prevent unnecessary harm to Ukrainian civilians and Ukrainian civil infrastructure’. American military analyst Scott Ritter shared his opinion on the special operation in Ukraine.
Scott is a former US Marine Corps Intelligence officer, and he’s well aware of the capabilities of the Russian army and its military power.
According to him, ‘Russia didn’t exploit its advantages’ to minimise losses for Ukraine. ‘Unfortunately, that hasn’t panned out’, says the analyst.
‘We’re going to see Russia use its advantages to prevail on the battlefield in a manner that accomplishes all of its missions, including the denazification and the demilitarisation of Ukraine’.

‘Ukrainian soldiers were shooting from our gardens. They were stationed in private houses, so they would bring out mortars, and we would hide in the cellars.’ A resident of Mariupol explained after reaching a refugee camp.
In the past 24 hours, more than 500 people have been evacuated to the village of Bezimenne, including about 60 children. Bezimenne is 30 kilometres from Mariupol. There is a refugee camp there. People are housed in tents, fed and treated. Some will stay in Donetsk, others will go to Russia.

‘When two shells flew into our yard, my husband immediately said: ‘Ukraine’. That’s where they were sitting, and it flew in from there... A Ukrainian tank was standing on the street’, says a refugee from Mariupol.
Her husband was seriously wounded: they removed his spleen and a rib. When they arrived at the hospital, there was ‘no water, nothing’. The woman says that doctors and nurses cried because they could not help the seriously injured. Now she, like many other refugees, has found temporary shelter in the village of Bezymennoe.
Their stories will be featured in a new RT Documentary film.

He is welcomed as one of their own and told by the people what they went through: ‘’The Azov’*! I don’t know how many there were, but Azov* took 250 of ours. Ordinary people. They lined them up, then followed and shot at them from the ground floors.’

Alexis uses the callsign Alfonso and has been fighting on the side of the DPR for the last eight years. He is originally from Colombia but lived in Spain from 10. He participated in the anti-fascist movement there.
Alexis accompanied the RT Documentary film crew to the Ilyich plant. He found NATO ammunition, German licence plates, and a Spanish grenade launcher. Alexis wants the Spaniards to know that their country supplies weapons to the Nazis.
During filming, a ginger cat suddenly ran out, hungry and dirty. He didn’t move a single step. And then he jumped into the car and refused to get out of it. He was given a name - Marik, in honour of Mariupol, where he was found.
In one of the houses where the journalists came to look for a friend of the Spanish intelligence officer, the cat decided to stay. The hostess did not chase him away. Alexis’s story will be part of a new RT Documentary film.
