Radio Liberty releases previously unpublished footage of a civilian being executed in Bucha

A surveillance camera recording obtained by the Ukrainian service of Radio Liberty captured the moment of the death of 70-year-old Bucha resident Volodymyr Rubailo, who was shot by Russian soldiers on Yablunska Street on March 4, 2022. Still images from this video were published in June of this year, but the full recording has only now been made public.

The footage shows the man first being shot, then finally being killed with a bullet to the head. One of the soldiers approaches the body and takes something from Volodymyr Rubailo’s pocket.

After that, the same group of soldiers goes towards a nearby grocery store and begins looting it. They carry out food and bottles — presumably alcohol — in baskets and shopping carts, then load them into bags. They later drank the looted liquid right in front of the cameras. At one point, one of the soldiers noticed the camera and smashed it with a sword he had in his possession.
