Footage from the Kyiv terrorist’s apartment has emerged

Journalists have released photos of the home of Dmytro Vasylchenko, who opened fire in the Holosiivskyi district of the capital on April 18. It turns out that before going out onto the street, the attacker set his own apartment on fire, causing it to burn almost completely. 

This was reported by “Suspilne” citing its own sources.

 

 

 

 

Among the remains of his belongings, law enforcement officers found surviving documents, including statements in Russian in which the man complained of alleged threats of physical violence from a neighbor. These papers may prove crucial for understanding the shooter’s psychological state and the motives behind his actions. Investigators are currently examining the theory of a long-standing conflict that may have provoked the aggression on the part of the 58-year-old Demiyivka resident.

Meanwhile, Kyiv residents continue to bring flowers to the “Velmart” supermarket, where the tragedy occurred, to honor the memory of the victims. The area around the shopping center remains cordoned off by police, and the store itself will remain closed until at least April 27 for investigative and restoration work. City authorities are urging residents to remain calm while law enforcement completes the collection of evidence at the crime scene.

The attack occurred on Saturday, April 18, when 58-year-old Dmytro Vasylchenkov opened fire on pedestrians on Demiivska Street, after which he took hostages at the “Velmart” supermarket. Six people were killed in the attack, and about 15 others were injured to varying degrees. 

Earlier, a video appeared online showing police officers fleeing from the shooter during the terrorist attack in Kyiv on April 18, leaving civilians behind, including a child.

At the instruction of Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko, an internal investigation has been launched into the actions of patrol officers at the scene of the shooting in Kyiv. For the duration of the investigation, the police officers involved in the incident have been suspended from duty.
