Some background on him
Former US serviceman, Patrick Lancaster, appears to live somewhere in The Donbass area with his family (they were recently evacuated). He delivers daily reports uploaded to his Youtube channel. Below are three videos he recently put out based on interviews with residents of Mariupol and the surrounding area.

We remind readers that it is the Donbass (the predominantly ethnic Russian area of Ukraine, on the far-eastern side) where atrocities have been happening more or less continuously since 2014 by Ukrainian forces against fellow Ukrainians. French journalist Anne-Laure Bonnel cannot even get her documentary on this topic broadcast by mainstream French media, such is the censorship of the Donbass region. The kind of reporting we see below, however, is not exactly surprising given what we know about the neo-Nazi Azov battalion, which uses the port of Mariupol as a base.

Well you can remind all you want but the simple fact is, if Russia had not armed the Donbass with advanced weaponry, top let them lob rockets and artillery into the Donbass- there probably would not be any "atrocities". Minsk 1 and 2 were violated by both sides and as the Donbass militias di dnot wear uniforms and launch artillery and rockets and fire upon Ukrainian soldiers from civilian areas- they violated international law and gave the Ukrainian troops the legal right to fire back in these areas! If Puitn hadn't armed and sent spetnaz troops in to teh donbas to retake those lands to reconstitute the old soviet empire- there would probably have been far less gunfire and innocents dying!

And for the record, any "atrocities" done by the Ukrainians, and to remind the readers, pale in comparison to the war crimes committed by Putin. Prior ot Zelensky all the leaders were corrupt. Some were friendly to Russia and some to the west. Big deal, that did not give Putin the right to send in 190,000 troops, hundreds of planes, thousands of rockets, thousands of armored vehicles and tanks and level whole cities.

If you wish to know the real terrorist group operating in the Donbas and Ukraine and other places in the world, read about Putins private army, the Wagner group!

All wars have atrocities, it is the nature of the beast.
The region has been at civil war since at least 2014.
