| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [REGNUM] Neo-Nazi Denis Kapustin, the very head of the terrorists who shot civilians in the Bryansk region, turned out to be from a well-known Jewish family. His grandfather is a veteran of the Great Patriotic War and a famous circus director. The mother abandoned her son a long time ago and even wrote him out of the apartment so that the VSUshnik would not even have thoughts of returning to the family. The relatives of Kapustin told about this to journalists of IA REGNUM. On March 2, a group of Ukrainian militants invaded the territory of the Bryansk region. A child was wounded and two civilians who were taking the children to school were killed. At first, dozens of saboteurs from the Armed Forces of Ukraine were reported, but in reality it turned out to be only a small group of terrorists from the so-called “Russian Volunteer Corps” (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation). Almost all the participants in the terrorist attack were identified by photographs - to brag, they themselves posted the pictures on the telegram channel of their organization. Among the attackers are Aleksey Ogurtsov , who calls himself Oswald Lemakh, former actor Kirill Kanakhin , former FSB officer Ilya Bogdanov , who is wanted for desertion in the Russian Federation, and Aleksey Kozhemyakin, whose head is decorated with tattoos with a swastika and other symbols of Nazism, and who is wanted in the Russian Federation for extremism and vandalism. Their leader's name is Denis Kapustin , aka Denis Nikitin, aka White Rex. DOSSIER Kapustin was born in Moscow on March 6, 1984. Even at a young age, at about 17 years old, he moved to Germany with his mother, where he settled in the urban district of Horweiler, near Cologne. Journalists from the German publication Der Spiegel found out that the Kapustin family emigrated to Germany as Jewish refugees, and a couple of months after the move, the young man received a residence permit. In Cologne, Kapustin joined a group of radical fans of the local team, with whom many years later he would arrange a massacre after the Cologne-Schalke-04 match. In 2014, Kapustin will even be prosecuted for participating in this fight, but the future leader of the Russian Volunteer Corps (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) will not receive real court terms. But he will be taken into account by German law enforcement officers as one of the most dangerous Nazis. After moving to Germany, Kapustin did not forget about his homeland and often traveled to Russia, because here he had a successful business. In 2008, he launched the White Rex clothing brand, which became popular with far-right "guys" from Russia and Europe. Accumulating right-wing radical youth around him, Kapustin has been organizing martial arts tournaments in different cities of Russia since 2011. The funds received went to the "prosperity" of nationalist groups, both Russian and European, with which Kapustin maintained close contacts in the 1910s. Somewhere since the end of 2016, Denis Kapustin settled in Ukraine. In Germany, he was deprived of his residence permit, but the mother of the terrorist still lives in the same apartment building in Horweiler. Even in Ukraine, the future extremist from the Russian Volunteer Corps (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation) had problems with the law. The aforementioned publication Der Spiegel reported that in October 2018, Kapustin was detained for the manufacture and sale of amphetamine on an industrial scale, but was soon released for unknown reasons. In 2022, in Ukraine, with the support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Russian Volunteer Corps was created (an organization whose activities are banned in the Russian Federation), which is officially a combat unit of the Ukrainian army. In the same 2022, in an interview with Oleg Kashin (an individual recognized in the Russian Federation as a foreign agent), which can still be found on YouTube, Kapustin demonstrates the military ID of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and also says that “war should not concern those who do not take in hands weapons, I will never shoot at such. Russian children are not to blame for anything, I won’t shoot at them either .” On March 2, Kapustin's detachment shot civilians, killed two unarmed people and wounded the boy Fedya, who saved two schoolgirls. MOTHER REFUSED, AND GRANDFATHER HIMSELF WOULD HAVE SHOT Five-story building in Perovo. Here, Kapustin's mother still owns an apartment, which is now being rented. In Moscow, the best friend of Kapustina's mother, with whom REGNUM journalists managed to talk, deals with family affairs. The woman asked not to be named because she is afraid of bullying in social networks and at work. Let's just say that she and her entire family, right up to her grandfather, are People's Artists of Russia, whose name can be discredited by friendship with the Kapustin family. For convenience, in the article we will call her Elena . Elena noted that Kapustin's mother did not share his views and abandoned her son for a long time, the last straw was Denis's non-attendance at the funeral of his own father. Mother now lives in Germany, and she has not contacted Elena for several weeks, although they used to call up regularly. "Mother does not know where Denis is for many years. She does not know that he joined some kind of detachment, and, I am sure, does not know that he staged a terrorist attack on the territory of Russia. I tried to call her, but for some reason she does not answer. Right now, a trial is underway to extract Denis Kapustin from a Moscow apartment. He lost contact with his family a long time ago and didn’t even come to his father’s funeral last year," said Elena. Elena also said that her mother does not understand his Nazi beliefs, given that Kapustin himself is from a Jewish family. "His grandfather fought in the Great Patriotic War, and after that he was the chief director of the Sochi circus for almost 20 years, where he worked with Mstislav Zapashny. Grandfather's name is Karpmansky Efim Aronovich . Unfortunately, he died," Elena continues. The residents of the house on Zeleny Prospekt did not even know that their former neighbor and the terrorist whose detachment shot civilians near Bryansk were one and the same person. "Grandfather would have shot him if he were alive," says a resident of the house. The neighbors also remembered that seven years ago the police came to their entrance just because of Denis Kapustin, what the future terrorist was guilty of then, they do not know, they only remember the fact itself. It turned out that in 2015, Kapustin was suspected of setting fire to a light car in a neighboring yard. The car belonged to a young guy who refused to give the reason for the arson to a REGNUM journalist . It’s hard to believe, but it’s a fact: a neo-Nazi from a Jewish family, supported by the Ukrainian authorities, shot Russian civilians, who were defended by his grandfather in the battles of the Great Patriotic War. March 4, 2023 Valery Lomovitsky From from regnum.ru The scale of events should not mislead anyone. The tactical attack of one Ukrainian sabotage group on a village with a population of 180 people was of strategic importance for the Kyiv regime. More precisely, the organizers of the terrorist attack set three ambitious goals. Did they manage to solve at least one of them? The invasion of a group of Ukrainian militants into the Bryansk region may not seem like such an important event. Its real scale was seriously exaggerated by those bloggers and journalists who wrote about it in the first hours after the invasion based on rumors. We wrote, we recall that it was about a large sabotage and reconnaissance group that entered the village and took dozens of hostages - that is, such a reincarnation of the events in Budyonnovsk or (considering that there were many children among the hostages) even Beslan. However, in reality, everything turned out to be much simpler - a group of Ukrainian terrorists entered the village, fired at civilians (killing two people), organized a photo shoot in front of the medical assistant's station, scattered mines around and fled back across the border, which is literally a kilometer from the village - two through the forest. RESISTANCE TO ATTRITION At the same time, the event should not be underestimated. Partly because an attack was carried out on the territory of the Russian Federation. During it, two Russians were killed, several more people were injured (including children who were shot at by terrorists, as well as law enforcers who blew up a mine during the cleansing). But not only for this reason, but also because the Kiev regime, with the help of this attack, wanted to change the course of the special military operation, which was unsuccessful for it. The fact is that the Russian leadership, according to a number of experts, has taken a course towards conducting so-called military operations of attrition. That is, in fact, to exhaust Ukraine, destroy its economic potential and the personnel of the armed forces (in particular, near Artyomovsk, where the Kiev regime is constantly forced to send more and more units to the practically surrounded city along completely shot through supply routes). Another goal of attrition battles is to deprive the enemy of the mobilization potential. Failures at the front motivate Ukrainians to emigrate and convey to them the idea of the futility of resistance. Today, Russia is winning such a battle. The process of mobilization of new fighters in the Armed Forces of Ukraine is going on with numerous scandals (people are literally kidnapped on the streets). The Ukrainian economy this year, according to IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva , will need $40-48 billion in borrowing just to sustain itself. In Western countries (which seem to be supposed to give this money), the positions of those who oppose an increase in assistance to Ukraine, and generally oppose sponsoring the Kyiv regime as such, are strengthening. And not only in Europe (which is not particularly eager to supply Ukraine with new tanks), but also in the United States. The share of Republicans in favor of more active support for Kiev fell from 49% in March 2022 to 17% in January 2023, and Democrats from 38% to 23% over the same period. Moreover, anti-Ukrainian sentiments are on the rise among the elites. Right-wing Republicans (who advocate redirecting foreign policy spending to address domestic political problems) and left-wing Democrats (who oppose excessive escalation) are demanding a review of the aid program for Kyiv. And due to the specifics of American domestic politics, it is possible that these sentiments will become a political trend in the summer / autumn - when the funds allocated to Kiev by the previous Congress are used up, and when the real election campaign begins in the United States. Kyiv needs to break this trend - and it is trying to do it, including through provocations in the Bryansk region. Which, according to its organizers, was supposed to solve three problems. SPLIT GAME The first is a psychological attack on Russian society. "The incident in the Bryansk region, as well as the chaotic drone strikes are elements of the psychological warfare carried out by Kiev, pursuing, first of all, information and propaganda goals," Russian political scientist Anton Khashchenko explains to REGNUM news agency. And this is not only about an attempt to intimidate residents of the regions of Bryansk, Kursk and Belgorod regions (which border on the territory still controlled by Ukraine). It is rather about introducing a split between the passionate part of society and the authorities, experts believe. "The goal, the main one, is to influence Russian society in order to demotivate that part of it that is commonly called “turbopatriots”, to introduce them into an altered state so that they criticize the authorities because of their “inability” to prevent such acts. In part, this happened - in social networks," explains the director of the Center for Political Information Aleksey Mukhin to REGNUM news agency. Turbopatriots are a media active part of the patriotic society, constantly demanding tougher and faster implementation of the NWO. Not all of them understand or agree with the strategy chosen by the Russian leadership to deplete the enemy. Attacks by the Kiev regime, like the one in Bryansk, not only convince the "turbopatriots" of the correctness of their point of view, but also allow us to believe that these attacks are evidence of the weakness of the political and military leaders of the Russian Federation. "In fact, this is an attempt to redirect the negative to the leadership of the Ministry of Defense and the country," Khashchenko believes. This is by no means only about discrediting the SVO - the Kiev regime is working within the framework of the general Western information mainstream, which is trying to provoke a change of power in Russia by force. "Through liberal attitudes, power cannot be changed. But accusations of softness, inability to conduct military operations, as well as insufficient patriotism and betrayal of national interests, are a blow to the foundations on which trust in the state rests," continues Khashchenko . WHERE THEY WENT In Kyiv, they hope that the Russian authorities, in an attempt to prove their strength, will resort to some kind of large-scale response to the provocation in Bryansk - and here lies the second task of the Ukrainian regime. On March 3, President Vladimir Putin held an operational meeting with members of the Russian Security Council, dedicated, in his words, to measures for the anti-terrorist protection of objects that are under the jurisdiction of law enforcement agencies. However, many experts believe that the only way to protect Russian territories from the infiltration of Ukrainian DRGs (sabotage and reconnaissance groups) is to take control of the border area. That is, to put it simply, we need to abandon the tactics of attrition and carry out a large-scale offensive as soon as possible in the Kharkiv, Sumy and Chernihiv regions. In fact, Russia is being pushed into full-scale military operations in a predetermined place and in an unfavorable period. This is not only about thaw, which will impede the movement of equipment, but also about the need for Ukraine to launch an offensive in the spring or early summer of this year. According to experts, such a task was set for Kyiv as a condition for continuing assistance. Accordingly, the Ukrainian regime wants to weaken the Russian troops as much as possible so that its offensive is as successful as possible, while the interest of the Russian troops is precisely in the destruction of the Ukrainian army on the march, after which a window may open for our offensive actions. "RUSSIANS AGAINST RUSSIANS" Finally, the third task is to demonstrate to the West the prospect of victory over Russia. Naturally, here we are not talking about the strength of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (which everyone understands perfectly), but about the strength of the opponents of the special operation among the Russians themselves. The goal is to demonstrate that a part of our society allegedly supports Ukraine, and not only the part that left the country after the start of the NWO. Like, there are those who remained, and allegedly ready to fight for Kyiv and the West with weapons in their hands. That is why the sabotage was carried out by the so-called Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK), a group of neo-Nazis and opponents of the Russian state who entered the service of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. That is why the Kiev regime positioned them precisely as Russian resistance forces. “A movement of Russian anti-fascist militias is unfolding in the Russian Federation , ” Alexey Danilov, secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, wrote on the social network (the author’s spelling is preserved. - Note IA REGNUM ). And adviser to the Office of the President of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak called them simply “partisans”. Both statements are outright lies or trolling. According to Kommersant, one of the previously identified participants in the attack - Denis Nikitin, aka Kapustin and White Rex, is known in European neo-Nazi, and by no means "anti-fascist" circles. Another likely person involved, Kirill Kanakhin (Rodonsky), uses the call sign Solar Cross - “Solar Cross”, that is, a swastika, notes RT. It looks absurd not only to call Nazi militants anti-fascists, but also the term "partisans". The RDK is officially listed as a regular unit as part of the International Legion of Terodefense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, created a year ago by order of Volodymyr Zelensky . DID YOU MANAGE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS If the first task was partially successful (there was indeed a wave of negativity in social networks), and it is too early to judge the results of the second (Moscow has not yet announced its response to the provocation), then the third, apparently, failed. Not because this “corps” is, in fact, a unit of mercenaries serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine (the head of this corps showed his Ukrainian military ID to the camera). Western media wrote about the corps just like a division of Russians, and The New York Times even called them "partisans." But at the same time, none of the mainstream Western media has written that these “partisans” have at least some influence inside Russia. Rather, on the contrary, their insignificance and small number were emphasized. Virtually all mainstream media have written that these “partisans” are made up primarily of “far-right” activists—understandably, since Western correspondents are largely made up of left-wingers who fear the rise of right-wing sentiment in Europe. At one time, Western liberal journalists have already written that Ukraine (in particular, the Nazi structure "Azov", recognized as extremist, terrorist and banned in Russia) has become a kind of training camp for all European far-right - and it is not surprising that the Russian "probationers » they treat at least without any sympathy or sympathy. Thus, today the Ukrainian provocation can rather be considered unsuccessful. However, this does not mean that Kyiv will not try to repeat it - after all, it has no other options for salvation.
