The nature of the murder spree, which took the live of Ukranians and Russians alike, has confounded observers.
They reportedly traveled between the two neighboring villages of Abrikosovka and Podo-Kalinovka looking for drinks.
One of their victims was Valentina Starchenko, 64. By one account, the men allegedly shot her, blew her house up with a grenade and fled.
A local resident and his friend, a Russian serviceman, were also shot. Their bodies were set on fire.
Kaygorodtsev is no stranger to this. The soldier is a convicted murderer who had been recruited into Putin’s army.
