    A former British soldier has been accused of helping Russia assassinate prominent Ukrainians.

    Ross David Cutmore allegedly imported and distributed weapons that were used in the killings of three Ukrainians, while on assignment from Russian special services between 2024 and 2025.

    Cutmore arrived in Ukraine in 2024 as a military instructor to assist in the training and preparation of Ukrainian army personnel.

    He had military experience from service in the British Army, during which he was deployed to the Middle East, a source from the Security Service of Ukraine told Ukrinform.

    While in Ukraine, Russian special services allegedly provided Cutmore with firearms and ammunition “to carry out targeted killings on the territory of Ukraine”.

    Investigators also believe the instructor distributed the weapons used to kill Ukrainian activists Demian Hanul and Iryna Farion and Ukrainian MP Andriy Parubiy.

    Mr Cutmore is reportedly in custody in Ukraine while investigations continue. He could face up to 12 years of imprisonment with confiscation of property for his actions, Ukrinform added.

  2. 12years only??? Yall euros need to bring back capital punishment like here in Asia

  3. I am shocked and disgusted. If this story is true, he is not just a traitor, but a traitor to his profession and the armed services of 2 countries. I know that for the moment he is only accused but if he is found guilty, he deserves more than just 12 years.

  4. I think this is the PERFECT cover for an MI6 double agent, kudos to the Brits

  5. Betraying 2 countries resulting in 3 deaths and only getting max 12 years is insane

  6. he should serve 12 years in ukraine then 12 years in the uk then be stripped of his uk citizenship and then sent to Russia, when his sentence is finished , if he survives

  7. May this prick rot in jail.
    A traitor to the Ukrainian people, the UK and Europe.

    Fuck him.

  8. Someone will make him an “Ex-living organism” soon

  9. Utter rat. Deserves life for what he’s done. Should never be free to integrate back into society.
