In the temporarily occupied town of Polohy, Zaporizhzhia region, the occupiers opened fire with small arms on a high-rise building and killed a dog. The Russian patrol did not like that the pet was barking.

An eyewitness to the crime managed to film the video. The video was published by the Ria-Melitopol Telegram channel (to watch the video, scroll to the end of the page).

Residents of the settlement said that the enemy patrol behaved inadequately. A few minutes before, people had heard shooting, but did not see what was happening.

Then two occupants in uniform and with weapons approached the apartment block. A dog was barking nearby.

The Russians told a woman from the first floor to silence the animal. Then the invaders opened fire. First, the man fired a round at the house (aiming somewhere near a window or balcony). Then the war criminal turned and opened fire on the dog. In the video, the pet can be heard barking when it was hit by bullets.

According to the Telegram channel, the incident took place last week. The animal died as a result.

As OBOZREVATEL previously reported:

- Local men may be mobilised in the temporarily occupied Mariupol, Donetsk region. The relevant decree on two waves of the so-called conscription into the ranks of the Russian invading forces was issued by the leader of the "DPR" Denis Pushilin.

- In addition, the occupiers have set up a pseudo-enlistment office in the temporarily occupied territory of the Zaporizhzhia region, and men are being forced to register for military service. The hidden mobilisation planned by the enemy is illegal and violates the laws and customs of war.
