Now, we all know Putin and his Russian military leaders are madmen, but this report is utterly despicable.
It is yet another case of a slam-dunk war crime.
Putin and his leaders must be made to answer for these atrocities.
War Crimes
Yuri Kerpatenko was the chief conductor of the Kherson Philharmonic.
He also conducted one of the city’s chamber orchestras.
We are talking in the past tense because we believe Kerpatenko is now dead.
According to reports, he refused to perform at a concert celebrating the “improvement of peaceful life” under the Russians.
Kerpatenko is an adamant supporter of Ukraine.
After he refused, Kyiv’s Ministry of Culture and Information Policy announced that Karpatenko had not been seen since.
The agency stated, “On October 14, it became known about the brutal murder of the chief conductor of the Kherson Music and Drama Theater.
“After Yuri Kerpatenko refused to cooperate with the occupants, Russian soldiers shot him in his own home.”
Exactly when the conductor was shot is not known.
The case is now reportedly under investigation.
The office of the Kherson province’s regional prosecutor stated, “Currently, law enforcement officers are taking measures aimed at a quick, complete and impartial investigation into the circumstances of the criminal offense.”
