Ukraine: Russian soldier jailed for life in first war crimes trial since invasion
A Ukrainian court has sentenced a Russian soldier to life in prison for killing an unarmed civilian in the first war crimes trial following Vladimir Putin’s invasion.
Vadim Shishimarin, a 21-year-old tank commander, pleaded guilty to killing 62-year-old Oleksandr Shelipov in the village of Chupakhivka.
He claims he did not want to kill - and was under orders to do so - but said he would accept his fate.
During the trial, Shishimarin asked the victim’s widow Kateryna Shelipova - who attended the trial - to forgive him.
