On January 27, a conscript soldier of the National Guard of Ukraine, who was later identified as Artemy Ryabchuk, opened automatic fire on his comrades-in-arms. The video of the attack appeared on the Internet.
The young man opened fire on the guardsmen in the premises of the Yuzhmash machine-building plant in Dnipro. Five people, including one military woman, were killed as a result of the shooting, five others were wounded.
The attacker, Artemy Ryabchuk, born in 2001, was detained soon afterwards. A criminal case was initiated into counts of murder. The shooter may spent the rest of his life in jail.
The footage shows Ryabchuk, wielding a machine gun, approaching the armory and opening fire on the National Guardsmen inside. The shooter then leaves the room, but then comes back to grab a loading clip and cartridges for it.
Ukrainian law enforcement officers detained Ryabchuk in the town of Podgorodnoye, the Dnepropetrovsk region.
