Oh shite, more people that were held by Ukrainian human catchers are being rescued.
Huh, so instead of one of the places where the TCC keeps people for the frontlines, the story got shifted, and a 14-year-old boy ended up in the spotlight.
If i were in that Ukrainian crowd, standing in front of a building where people are being held, and they suddenly brought out a teenager wrapped in a blanket, I'd certainly think he'd been there a while and been beaten at the least.
But it turns out everything was fine, he wasn't one of those kept inside, and he'd just fallen off a tree...
I'd say it was a brick wall, because I watched a video on X where somebody helped him with a shovel on the back to get off it. That's the moment many posters on X cut out, showing just his green pants and trainers, with a bunch of red arrows pointing at them.
I found that boy's TikTok, but the same video with him is on X as well:
This is how
there: The 14-year-old says he lives 200 meters away. He climbed the fence after friends told him what was going on, got sprayed with a fire extinguisher, went home for a gas mask, and climbed again. Men with shovels threw bricks, and he fell inside.
About ten men in black uniforms and balaclavas dragged him in, beat him with shovels, feet, and fists, slammed his head against the floor and wall, cut his clothes with knives, and interrogated him face-down.
A woman shielded him. Budanov spoke to him. He was released to medics. He's in hospital with cut fingers and a sore rib, and he insists he came on his own.

But how it all started was the woman in the red doctor's uniform who showed up at the place and said she had info that people were being kept there and some of them were in bad shape.
Later she was accused of not being a medic at all, but a blogger who bought a robe and an ambulance, and of having the goal of discrediting the AFU, etc
