Horror and disgust are evoked by videos that have been published on the internet showing Ukrainian soldiers of the Azov regiment, calling from the mobile phones of dead Russian soldiers to their relatives to taunt them.
It is a series of videos posted on telegram channels of the Azov battalion (which the Russians charge with Nazi ideology and a series of murders of Russian-speaking civilians during the eight-year civil war in Ukraine), in which Ukrainian soldiers call their relatives from the mobile phones of dead Russians to mock them.
In one of the videos, a Ukrainian man calls the mother of a soldier from Russia claiming that they left his body to be eaten by dogs... The mother at the end of the video bursts into tears.
#ukraine soldiers calling family of deceased to mock and swear at them. Knowing modern phones - the soldier in question must've been alive before they unlocked his device. That's another POW #warCrime to their repertoire. pic.twitter.com/D55T6Hu0se

Ukrainian officials have already ordered an investigation into the authenticity of these videos.
I don't know what's worse.
This member of a Ukrainian militia calling the family of a Russian soldier killed in an artillery strike to mock them.
Or the fact that the rabid animal thought it was a good idea to record it and upload it to the internet. pic.twitter.com/66gSOobPE0
