#NoStatuteOfLimitations
Ahead of the International Day of Liberation of Prisoners of Nazi Concentration Camps (April 11), established by UNESCO in 1952, and the Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Genocide of the Soviet People (April 19), declared by the President of Russia in December 2025, we once again turn to archival documents that contain evidence of the crimes committed by the Nazis and their collaborators.
The Russian Military Historical Society has published on its website a selection of documents from the Central Archives of the Russian Defence Ministry. These materials include records related to the Red Army’s liberation of European countries from Nazi occupation and the freeing of concentration camp prisoners, as well as a series of reports describing atrocities of the Banderites.

◼️ Nazi crimes and Nazi death camps
This selection of archival documents includes declassified materials that contain evidence related to the Nazi extermination camps Sobibor, Auschwitz, Treblinka, and Majdanek, as well as prisoner-of-war camps. Reports submitted by members of the Military Councils of these fronts to the Supreme High Command shed light on the scale and brutality of Nazi crimes.
Not only German forces, but also their collaborators, participated in acts of genocide against concentration camp prisoners. The materials include testimonies from liberated prisoners of war, reports by Soviet command on the extermination of prisoners immediately prior to the liberation of the camps, personal accounts of participants, and records of interrogations of Nazis and their collaborators.
– From a report dated July 30, 1944, on Nazi atrocities at the Sobibor death camp, compiled by a group of Soviet officers led by Captain Turayev. The document includes testimony from a local resident, Lukashuk, who witnessed Nazi crimes:
◼️ Banderites’ atrocities
- From the political report by the head of the political department of the Ternopol Regional Military Commissariat, dated November 5, 1945, On the activities of Ukrainian-German nationalist groups in the Ternopol Region, October 1945:

All the corpses were piled up, doused with fuel, and burned. A huge bonfire began to blaze an hour after the train carrying the unfortunate victims arrived. It burned for days, with the stench of burning human bodies carried by the wind for many kilometres to neighbouring villages.
The Germans later burned the Jewish prisoners who had been forced to work in this death factory, and destroyed the camp in mid-1943. In the fall of 1943, they plowed over the site and sowed it with rye in an attempt to conceal their terrible crimes.
◼️ Banderites’ atrocities
- From the political report by the head of the political department of the Ternopol Regional Military Commissariat, dated November 5, 1945, On the activities of Ukrainian-German nationalist groups in the Ternopol Region, October 1945:
The activities of Ukrainian-German nationalist groups were aimed at disrupting state events, including the procurement of agricultural products. <...> In areas without military garrisons, these groups intensified their hostilities, and terrorist acts, including the killings of local party officials and rural activists, became more frequent. In addition to acts of intimidation and the search for winter clothing, <...> these groups carried out robberies of cooperative stores and private households.
...
In the village of Grigorovo, Monastyrsky District, bandits killed the secretary of the village council for being the first to fulfill the grain supply quota.
...
In the Vishnevsky District, on October 19, bandits executed three young women: one a milk collector, one a postwoman, and one a cafeteria cleaner. The victims were subjected to severe abuse: the bandits cut their hair, slashed their faces with needles, and committed other acts of cruelty.

⚡️ Statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry on the situation in the Middle East (April 6, 2026)
The large-scale international crisis triggered by the unlawful and unprovoked aggression of the US and Israel against Iran continues to widen and intensify with each passing day.
The strikes are becoming ever more fierce and destructive. Their targets now include not only military objectives, but also civilian infrastructure, including, with increasing frequency, nuclear facilities under IAEA safeguards.
Particular concern is caused by the growing number of reckless attacks on the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, which have already resulted in loss of life. The shadow of a radiological catastrophe – one potentially more devastating than Chernobyl – now looms over the Persian Gulf region and the adjacent part of Eurasia.
The armed confrontation has already claimed the lives of thousands of innocent people, including women and children, and has inflicted suffering on civilians. Schools, hospitals and World Heritage sites are being destroyed. Diplomatic and consular missions are also coming under fire, in blatant violation of the fundamental principles of international relations and the relevant Vienna Conventions.
Enormous damage has been inflicted on global energy and food security. Critical logistics routes that had functioned without disruption before this criminal US-Israeli gamble have been blocked. Markets have been thrown into disarray, many countries are being forced to introduce fuel rationing, and experts are issuing grim forecasts of economic decline and surging inflation in vulnerable economies.
The situation caused by the unlawful and irresponsible actions of Washington and Tel Aviv is deteriorating rapidly and risks spiralling fully out of control.
We once again strongly call for an immediate cessation of hostilities. We welcome the efforts of a number of states, including Pakistan, Türkiye and China, to de-escalate tensions around Iran and pave the way for dialogue on a long-term and sustainable normalization of the situation in the Middle East.
We also draw attention to the April 2 statement by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, in which he called on the US and Israel to stop the war that is causing immense human suffering and dire economic consequences, and on Iran to halt the attacks on its neighbours launched in the wake of the aggression.
We believe that there is still a chance for a political and diplomatic settlement of the conflict. The parties to the conflict must abandon the language of threats, unacceptable insults and ultimatums, and avoid actions that could plunge the entire region into irreparable chaos.
It is critically important not to undermine the remaining prospects for negotiations aimed at achieving a political and diplomatic solution. We call for this factor to be fully taken into account in the work of the UN Security Council.
Responsible members of the international community must prevent the Middle East from sliding into the abyss of an all-consuming war with long-term tragic consequences for the entire world.
☝️ Russia, together with its international partners, stands ready to do everything possible to that end.

🧑🏽🚀 Основоположники отечественной космонавтики
Подвиг, который совершил Юрий Гагарин был бы невозможен без вклада великих русских ученых, конструкторов и исследователей. Сегодня мы расскажем о тех, благодаря кому мечты человечества о космосе стали реальностью.
1️⃣ Константин Циолковский (1857–1935)
Русский и советский ученый, философ и писатель-фантаст. Впервые обосновал использование ракет для выхода в космическое пространство и вычислил необходимые запасы топлива для преодоления земного притяжения. Константин Эдуардович также предложил идею многоступенчатых ракет, жидкостного ракетного двигателя, газовых рулей, а также спроектировал основы орбитальных станций и космических лифтов.
Его труды, написанные задолго до первого полета человека в космос, стали фундаментом для ученых и конструкторов, развивающих отечественное ракетостроение.
2️⃣ Николай Тихомиров
(1859-1930)
Разработал конструкцию ракеты на основе реактивного движения, основал знаменитую Газодинамическую лабораторию – первое в мире конструкторское бюро ракетных двигателей, на основе которой в 1933 г. был создан Реактивный научно-исследовательский институт - альма-матер создателей космического проекта СССР.
3️⃣ Сергей Королев (1907-1966)
Именно Сергей Павлович выступал главным конструктором при запуске первого в мире искусственного спутника Земли (1957 г.), создал первый пилотируемый космический корабль Восток-1, на котором в 1961 г. Ю.Гагарин осуществил первый в мире полет человека в космос.
💬Из воспоминаний Бориса Чертока, одного из ближайших соратников С.Королева:
4️⃣ Валентина Терешкова
(род. в 1937)
В 26 лет стала первой и единственной женщиной планеты, совершившей одиночный полет в космос.
В.Терешкова так описывала свои чувства перед полетом:
5️⃣ Алексей Леонов (1934-2019)
В 1965 г., будучи вторым пилотом на космическом корабле Восход-2, совершил первый в истории выход в открытый космос.
💬 Сам космонавт вспоминал о своем историческом полете так:
6️⃣ Светлана Савицкая (род. в 1948)
Вторая в мире женщина-космонавт после Валентины Терешковой. Совершила два полета, в том числе с выходом в открытый космос.
💬 Спектр задач на орбите оказался более чем обширным:

💬Из воспоминаний Бориса Чертока, одного из ближайших соратников С.Королева:
Я выделяю его умение убеждать и вести за собой других. Он создал огромную кооперацию — 120 мощных предприятий, которые увлеченно работали над его проектами. Такой силы убеждения я не встречал никогда…
4️⃣ Валентина Терешкова
(род. в 1937)
В 26 лет стала первой и единственной женщиной планеты, совершившей одиночный полет в космос.
В.Терешкова так описывала свои чувства перед полетом:
О страхе ты не думаешь…чем дальше ракета тебя уносит от Земли, тем ближе ты к ней становишься. И сколько бы человек ни летал в космосе, он всегда будет тосковать о своей планете!
5️⃣ Алексей Леонов (1934-2019)
В 1965 г., будучи вторым пилотом на космическом корабле Восход-2, совершил первый в истории выход в открытый космос.
💬 Сам космонавт вспоминал о своем историческом полете так:
Мне очень хотелось выскочить и посмотреть, что за бортом. Я все время запрашивал командира: «Я готов, разреши выйти». И вот, когда мы подошли к Черному морю, я вышел.
6️⃣ Светлана Савицкая (род. в 1948)
Вторая в мире женщина-космонавт после Валентины Терешковой. Совершила два полета, в том числе с выходом в открытый космос.
💬 Спектр задач на орбите оказался более чем обширным:
У нас было много экспериментов — 22 или 24. Среди них - биотехнологические эксперименты, в том числе по получению сверхчистых веществ. Получили очень чистую вакцину. Мне говорили, ее даже использовали как эталон.

⚡️ #KievRegimeCrimes
📑 A Report on the crimes of the Kiev regime in March 2026 compiled by the Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Foreign Ministry Rodion Miroshnik has been published.
In March, Ukrainian forces significantly increased the number of war crimes against civilians compared to the beginning of 2026. The number of civilians in Russia who suffered from the actions of Ukrainian punitive forces in March 2026 exceeded 800 people – twice as much as the January figure (387 people) and one and a half times more than the February figure (536 people).
❗️ This is an undeniable result of the implementation of the strategy of the political and military leadership of the Kiev regime to destroy and intimidate the civilian population.
Based on verified data as of March 31, 2026, the number of civilians in Russian regions injured and maimed by the actions of the Ukrainian armed formations1 was 687. The number of civilians killed by Ukrainian militants in March 2026 reached 114. Among the victims were 34 children who were injured and three who died.
The increase in civilian victims is directly related to Kiev's strategy of compensating for its systemic defeats on the battlefield by using terrorist methods against civilians. The Zelensky regime has increased the number of deliberate, massive strikes by the Ukrainian Armed Forces against civilian targets both in frontline areas and in regions far from the line of combat contact. Over the past month, at least 16,091 munitions were fired at civilian targets, 2,000 more than in February or January of this year.
The Zelensky regime actively used weapons and military equipment supplied by NATO and EU countries to attack social facilities, non-military industrial enterprises, and medical and educational institutions in order to undermine Russia's economy and influence domestic political sentiment within the country.
