A third individual has been identified from the May 22 raid into Russia’s Belgorod Oblast by the “Russian Volunteer Corps” of Denis Kapustin (aka Nikitin). His name is Aleksandr Skachkov, yet another of the Kiev-based neo-Nazis. His case draws attention to the raid—meaning, a gang of neo-Nazi thugs armed with U.S. and Western military equipment going in, shooting up Russian civilians and leaving—is actually a systematizing of the Christchurch, New Zealand mass killing of 2019.
Skachkov sports a T-shirt labeled “Völkischer Beobachter,” after the name of the original daily newspaper of the German Nazi Party from 1920 onwards. He trafficks in Nazi flags, patches and such, including the infamous “Christchurch Shooter’s Manifesto” (CSM). In 2020, he was arrested for marketing the Ukrainian translation of the CSM.
That Ukrainian edition of the 70-page CSM was published by Ukraine’s C-14, a notorious neo-Nazi thug grouping. The organizer of the publication effort was one David Kolomiiets of Kiev, whose online identity “Der Stürmer” is the name of yet another Nazi newspaper, and who runs a Ukrainian-language Telegram channel devoted to the Christchurch shooter. That channel also replays Brenton Tarrant’s live-stream video of his murders of 51 Muslim worshippers in two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand on March 15, 2019.
Kolomiiets claimed that he sold 800-1,000 copies of the Ukrainian CSM, evidently between June and November 2019. He told an admirer that, even though his first name was common amongst Jews, “I’m not a kike” and that all Jews should have died in 1943. He said of the citizens of Lugansk and Donetsk, that there were “too many people that we need to destroy.” Skachkov’s arrest for the distribution and sale of the CSM puts him in this small coterie.
