Ukrainians publish information about Belarusian accessories to terrorism

Ukrainian MP Anton Herashchenko presented the project some weeks ago aimed at collecting data about separatists.

The project was launched by a group of like-minded people to help the Interior Ministry and the Security Service. The website is called Mirotvorets (Peacemaker), Radio Svaboda reports.

As of January 8, the website contains information about 9,000 possible militants and their accessories. According to the authors, the site provoked panic among separatists. Due to the information collected by the Mirotvorets project, about 150 terrorists and their accomplices were detained at checkpoints when trying to leave the zone of the anti-terorrist operation.

Photographs and names of supposed militants can been seen in the database on the site. The site contains links and information from social networking sites, for example selfies with rifles or pictures from battle areas.

The website contains information about people from Belarus. One of them – Anatoli Molchanov (Mauchanau) nicknamed Sobr – is marked as a “terrorist”. He is said to have taken part in the occupation of Crimea. He was awarded with a medal from the authorities of the occupied republic.

Another militant is Sergei Yasiukevich, who was born in the town of Iuye in 1990. His account on VKontakte social network contains many photographs showing him wearing military uniform with St George ribbons supposedly with other militants of the DNR and LNR. One of the pictures, which was uploaded in December 2014, was taken in occupied Donetsk.

Aleksei Fokov (Fokau) is reported by the website to be fighting on the side of the DNR-LNR in Ukraine. The former activist of pro-fascist RNE organisation and soldier of the special task troops in Maryina Horka published many photos that prove his involvement in the events in the Donbas region. He wrote on his account: “There's a war of the Russians against the West... Go to war, otherwise the war will come to your home tomorrow.”

The database contains information about, for example, Dmitri Kardash of Vaukavysk. He is labeled as a “provocateur and Ukrainephobe”. He reposts anti-Ukrainian messages from such groups as AntiMaidan, participates in discussions about the Russian-Ukrainian conflict on the side of separatists.

The database also includes the head of the Minsk bureau of a Russian TV channel, Andrei Kachura, who received the Medal of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" for “objective coverage of the events in Crimea”; sniper from Barysau Natalya Krasovskaya (Krasouskaya); and former activist of the National Bolshevik Party from Salihorsk Igor Shchuka.

The information was collected by volunteers. It is supposed that materials of the website will be used at trials and will serve as proofs that the war was instigated by Putin.

Many of the “heroes” of the project hurried to close their accounts on social networks, but some are reported to contact the Security Service of Ukraine asking if they can count on amnesty if they take the Ukrainian side voluntary.
