EntranceWyborcza found out why the Russian sniper “Vasya”’s hand does not tremble. Russian terrorist Veslina Cherdantseva shot and killed a fellow countryman from Novorossiysk. What about firearms, friends?
The new star of Novorossiya was the 26-year-old girl Veselina Cherdantseva, who left St. Petersburg to fight in Donbass for peace and protect local residents. Her idol is Lyudmila Pavlichenko, who during the Great Patriotic War killed more than 300 fascists. And she would gladly see the pilot Nadya Savchenko in prison or on next world, writes Wyborcza.
Girl sniper "Vasya" - new star Novorossiya. “I shoot so as to kill immediately, so that no one suffers”, she says. Her story has everything you need to create a military myth: childhood in Siberia, military training and a well-prospering company, which she closed in order to devote herself to what is most important to her - the fight for good in her homeland and peace in the Donbass. Veselina Cherdantseva is presented as the hero of the self-proclaimed Novorossiya, writes Gazeta Wyborcza.
“The photographs she publishes on the Internet show a smiling red-haired girl sitting on horseback. This is what older photos look like. In the latest ones, Veselina Cherdantseva poses with a carbine. On the sleeve of the jacket there is an emblem with the inscription " Polite people"», - notes the Polish publication. Since the annexation of Crimea, this is how fighters who are not officially part of any state army are called. These are soldiers who go to Ukraine “on vacation,” or people like Cherdantseva, who left everything and came from Russia to protect the residents of Donbass.
“Vasya” is Cherdantseva’s pseudonym in the Donbass. She is 26 years old. Russian. She was born and lived for a long time in Siberia. She comes from a family with Cossack and military traditions. It was obvious for her to enroll in the Missile Forces Cadet Corps after finishing 9th grade. strategic purpose. “We were still children, we were not taught the real military service, but we assembled and disassembled the machine guns and went to the training ground", says Veselina.
She admits it was her father's idea. “I couldn't refuse him. All my life I saw my father in military uniform, and I was always drawn to epaulets. As a child, when asked what I wanted to become, I answered that I would be a Cossack horse... I wanted, at least to some extent, to be with the army.”, she says. When she was a girl, she also played with dolls, but in a different way than her friends: she put the toys on tanks and led the attack, Wyborcza emphasizes.
Veselina Cherdantseva has not fought before, although she admits that similar proposals came to her. The Syrians approached the woman who was a good shooter. “There were proposals on their part. People came, tried to talk, put pressure on me, even tried to threaten me, but I refused. I don’t fight for money, I love my Motherland and my land. They offered 5 thousand dollars for one or two weeks of struggle.", she says.
She didn’t come to Donbass for money either. Previously, she managed a stud farm, then went to St. Petersburg, where she opened a sports school, which, by the way, taught knife skills. “I closed the company, sold everything and came here. The decision to come here was made in March after watching material about the shelling of two buses carrying children, and when I saw blood spattering.", explains the sniper.
Veselina Cherdantseva is a sniper and commandant of one of the units. She commands 15 soldiers. In war, authority is developed in battle. Cherdantseva herself admits that a woman in the army must prove from the very beginning that she deserves respect. “It already starts at school - if necessary, you can punch them in the face. Essentially, a battle buddy has no gender. They don’t force you to peep while standing, but in other respects we are equal.”, she assures.
“Vasya” does not hide the fact that women fighting in war are usually more cruel than their comrades. “But this applies primarily to men. Female snipers often aim to hit the groin. However, they are reluctant to kill other women, shooting them last. After all, these girls on the other side, even if they are enemies, should not be here at all. They must give birth to children and cook pies. Sometimes we detained people who were 17-19 years old. They became snipers, but it’s clear that they are still stupid. We let them go", she explains.
However, Veselina has no mercy for people like pilot Nadya Savchenko, detained in Russia. “People like her should be either in prison or in the next world,”- assures sniper “Vasya”. She is surprised that Nadya allowed herself to be caught. “Apparently she didn’t have enough time to commit suicide,” she suggests. She herself prefers death to captivity. “It’s better to die standing than to live life on your knees”, she quotes a saying that is often repeated Russian soldiers and criminals, notes the Polish publication.
“If I feel sorry for anyone, it’s the Ukrainian conscripts. May God grant them that I don’t get caught by them. These guys were forced to fight. But these battalions are “Aidars”, “Azovs”, “Pravoseks”, “National Guards”... I will have no doubts, and my hand will not even shake.”, - “Vasya” talks with passion about the murder of Ukrainian fascists.
In this she takes an example from the famous sniper Soviet army Lyudmila Pavlichenko. “She fought during the Great Patriotic War, saved people’s lives, brought them out from under fire and killed more than 300 fascists“, she says enthusiastically about her idol. It is not known whether she ever thought about which side of the conflict her idol would fight on today, since Pavlichenko is a native of central Ukraine, Wyborcza notes.
Vasya also has plans for the future. She would gladly exchange sleeping quarters at the base and shooting for a quiet life in Russia. She would like to have children. “I’ll even knit socks for them. But only when there is peace on my land.", she says. At the same time, she assures that she will never leave the army. “Maybe I’ll start organizing some classes, patriotic camps for young people. Young people should be involved in something", she adds.
Cherdantseva does not dream of being killed, but the main rule is not to look this person in the eye. “You cannot allow yourself to show anger or revenge, then you lose your humanity. War is, of course, blood and corpses, but you always need to respect the enemy. That's why I never shoot any man in the groin. I always shoot in such a way as to kill him immediately, so that he doesn’t suffer.”, - the Polish publication Gazeta Wyborcza summarizes the words of sniper Vasya.
moskwasadowa:An amateur killer with a brain steeped in Bolshevik mythology is a true homo sovieticus. Turn her into a stuffed animal and display her in a museum.
paulhandyman:Bury it in a hole six meters deep under the fence and fill it with a ton of chalk.
ppabisiak:She will organize patriotic camps... Polite little green man. I wish this bitch that when the guys from Azov catch her, she too will not be tortured and her honor will not be insulted.
zieniewicz1:In fact, her words make sense. If I went to war, I would have a similar philosophy. However, it is a product of propaganda. And the nightmares will come later, after the war and not immediately. There is voluntary consent to kill another person. But the development of spiritual life excludes murder as such. War degrades human values.
ffstv:A sniper who wants peace on earth must first kill 300 people.
prince albert:What does propaganda do to people...
warszawa54321:It's a pity for our Russian Slavic brothers, who could be wonderful people. An oligarchic system of government, which has a propaganda apparatus at its disposal, will destroy any nation. Let's rejoice in Poland.
andy180812:A heroic woman, good and determined.
ndris:Ukraine has the right to self-determination. Why should Novorossiya be denied such a right? The girl is fighting for what is right.

NOVOROSSIYSK, March 24. Donbass militias accused the commander of the Vympel detachment, Veselina Cherdantseva (call sign “Vasya”, in the media she was called a “sniper”) of the murder of their deputy, volunteer Alexei Mayorov (call sign “Musa”) from Novorossiysk. The deceased’s sister, Tatyana, told Ura.ru correspondent Andrei Guselnikov about the circumstances of his death.
The man went to Donbass for the first time in July - he fought near Krasnodon for about a month, was wounded, and spent several weeks in a Rostov hospital. The second time the paratrooper volunteered for the East of Ukraine was in early October. He ended up in Gorlovka, in the unit of Igor Bezler ("Demon"), in the Vympel detachment - with Cherdantseva. Relatives did not know about the trip. After Mayorov stopped calling, his sister sounded the alarm and contacted “Vasya”. She assured that the military man had gone home on October 22. The version that “Musa” was killed and is in the possession of the Ukrainian military has not been confirmed.
Information about Musa's fate appeared a month later. People reacted to the video that Tatyana recorded on Donetsk television while looking for her brother. They gave evidence and also spoke about everything that happened, the publication reports. In Novorossiysk, a pre-investigation check was ordered in connection with Mayorov’s disappearance, and the DPR Prosecutor General’s Office opened a criminal case into his premeditated murder.
It turned out that Alexey was killed on October 28, 2014. According to the story of their colleagues, “Vasya” and “Musa” drank and argued all night. In the morning she announced that she refused his help in her work, the military man said that he was leaving home. Together with his colleague, he went to the station in a car. “Vasya” followed him. Fire was opened on Mayorov's car. “Lesha and Maly reached the greenery (a forest plantation on both sides of the road), they heard they were being shot at,” Tatyana recounts. “They thought it was an ambush.” Maloy says to Lesha: “Take the machine gun, shoot back!” (Lesha gave up his own before leaving!) We arrived at the checkpoint of the “Vostok” battalion. Then Vasya drives up with his personal car and takes them into the woods next to the checkpoint.”
According to the fighters, she forced him to raise his hands and kneel down, he refused to do this and asked to let him go, saying that he was going to see his son. “And after that she gave a burst - she hit him in the shin and thigh. The boys and I went to him - he was breathing. She went into the car. We jumped up and said: “Vasya, he’s suffering there, let’s call an ambulance.” She says: “I myself I'll figure it out now." Witnesses think that the woman just wanted to scare Lesha - to shoot at the ground, but she was "swayed." However, even after that machine-gun burst, in everyone's opinion, Musa could have been saved. "She took the machine gun. She came up and three times shot Alexey in the head, says Tatyana. “Then her “personal” took a shovel at that checkpoint and buried him." They managed to dig up Musa’s body recently, when the exact burial place became known. Alexey Mayorov’s personality was identified only by the characteristic tattoos on his hands. The militia told the publication's journalist that Cherdantseva was not a sniper. “She came up with the pseudonym Veselina Cherdantseva, her real name is Ksenia Vitalievna Shikalova,” said one of the fighters. “During the Crimean events, I was in St. Petersburg, getting mixed up with the Nazis.”
Major General of the DPR Army Bezler (his unit is now disbanded), who brought Veselina closer to him and appointed her squad commander, did not want to comment to Ura.Ru on the story of the death of Alexei Mayorov. However, he gave his sister 15 thousand hryvnia to pay for the costs of the coffin and delivery of the body from Donetsk to Novorossiysk. He also helped the investigation find the machine gun from which Alexey was killed for a ballistic examination.
According to the latest information, Vaselina Cherdantseva is at home in Bratsk. In response to a reporter's request for an interview, she wrote: "I'm just wondering, does this all make sense? The accusation has already been made. The main thing is to justify yourself to your relatives, otherwise they won’t believe you. As for the rest... my family and friends know me and trust me. The testimony was given by an ex who now regularly threatens me. What is this all for?".
Interview with a brother fighting in the ranks of the Donetsk People's Republic.
A native of Bratsk, Veselina Cherdantseva, is fighting in the ranks of the militia of the Donetsk People's Republic. Not long ago, the Zvezda TV channel, with the modest participation of the Gorod TV company, talked about an unusual volunteer who went to the south-east of Ukraine to help the militia and had already been seriously wounded. Now Veselina has almost fully recovered and is again on the front line. The site's correspondent contacted the girl and talked to her about what is happening now in the southeast, when the war will end, and why a Siberian woman needs to fight in Ukraine. Veselina, how long have you been on the territory of the DPR and where did the decision to go there come from? I've been here since the end of April. I decided to help escort humanitarian supplies to the territory of south-eastern Ukraine. I don’t watch TV, but I regularly monitored the news on the Internet. I decided that the people in the southeast were right and joined the ranks of the militia. By the way, I had friends who went to Maidan, supported that policy and still support it. I stopped communicating with them. Have you ever taken part in hostilities? I have fighting happen all the time. In what terms: when we accompany cargo, one way or another we are fired upon. Many times we were ambushed, and so on. So I was in battles. Was it scary? The first time it's not scary at all. It's like jumping with a parachute. The first time is not scary, because you don’t understand anything. The second time is already scary. With each fight you begin to understand more clearly what can happen, and then it becomes a little scary. But this is such fear... not panic. Just calm down and complete the task. You said that you are constantly under fire. Have you already gotten used to it? Naturally. For example, you are sleeping, and there are constant bombs nearby. We once arrived at the place of deployment at night. I fell into the greenery, into the grass, and fell asleep. The mortars were firing next to me, but I didn’t even hear: I was sleeping peacefully. The guys didn’t wake me up: I could hear the mortars working somewhere nearby, but they weren’t targeting us. As far as we know, you have already been seriously injured? How are you feeling now? Yes, I’m already running normally. A fragment was left in my hand. It took a long time for the fragments to come out of my leg. She walked with a cane and limped. But I was also shell-shocked. The hardest thing now after the concussion is frequent headaches and sometimes I forget something. But I’m slowly coming to my senses. What happened, tell us in more detail. We were carrying humanitarian cargo and were ambushed not far from the Assumption post. This, in my opinion, is 3 kilometers from the Russian border. There was a fortified area there. We drove in a column of cars. And the commander and I saw a checkpoint with a Ukrainian flag. Empty. There were machine guns, but there was no one at all, we didn’t see anyone. We stopped, and then a shootout began - it turned out that the enemy was nearby, in the bushes. The battle has begun. Usually a battle doesn’t last long, but here we had a battle for two or three hours. Then we heard that mortars had started firing at us, and we began to retreat. I received shrapnel wounds from a mortar shot: in the leg, arm and neck. When they retreated to Russian border, we realized that we were surrounded: on one side there were machine gunners, on the other side there were mortars working, on the third side there were armored personnel carriers. We went into the only corridor, and we were just lucky there: there were “Pravosek” dugouts, but, fortunately, there was no one there. Either they pulled up to that empty checkpoint or something... but we got through. Besides you, are there any other girls at the front? There are actually girls. I saw them, but didn’t really communicate. There are girls who came with their husbands, there is a woman who fights with her son. That is, it turns out, mother and son. But there are not many girls and women. The girls who are there help, coordinate, and provide informational assistance. And to take part in hostilities... There are few of them, but they exist. For the last few years you have lived in St. Petersburg, where you worked as a knife fighting instructor. Are your skills useful now? Well, only in terms of physical fitness. There is no close combat here. A knife is needed to disguise yourself or cut sausage (laughs). What about firearms, friends? Well, yes, I’m good friends (laughs). I learned in the process. Where did your love for weapons come from? It doesn’t seem like a woman’s job to fight. This is from childhood, in fact, because my father is a military man. I looked at him constantly. I was drawn to all of this. As a child, I loved watching war films and reading books about the war. At school, during literature classes, they assigned books about the war, and I literally read them avidly. I really liked them. What shocked you when you arrived in the Donetsk Republic? The only thing that shocked me and still shocks me is the senselessness of this war. That is, of course, it makes sense for the militias. But I don’t understand the Ukrainians who support the Maidan, I can’t understand their politics, their ideology. How long do you plan to stay there in the ranks of the militia? To end. Until the bitter end. How soon will it come, in your opinion? If it doesn’t come soon, then it seems to me that all this could drag on for two or three years. And you will be there for two or three years? Of course yes. But I want this war to end as soon as possible. I’m so used to my guys, to my comrades in arms, that I want us all to stay alive and be together in civilian life. I don't want to part with them. By the way, tell us a little about your comrades in arms. Who are they, where are they from? And what are they fighting for? We have a whole international gathering here. Of course, we have a lot of Ukrainians here. These are usually miners. The most combative. Such tough Ukrainian guys. We have guys from Chechnya and Ossetia, we have our Serb brothers. And they are, in fact, driven by one thing: to help the Russians. Because Serbs, for example, treat Russians very well. From time immemorial we have helped each other. Each of those who came here understands that if this whole wave is not stopped now, the wave will definitely spread to Russia. This applies to everyone: those who live in Russia, and those who live in a country that is friends with Russia, with Russians. And Chechens also come here as volunteers. Moreover, they are one of the kindest and most sympathetic people with whom I now communicate. What is the attitude of the militias to our country, to Putin? We are not particularly concerned with politics here. The only thing that unites everyone here is love for their land. The militias understand that we have one Motherland. And, accordingly, they have a good attitude towards Russia and want to be together with Russia. We are part of one people. Or rather, we are one people. Tell me, are you afraid of death? I think every person is afraid of death. I am no longer afraid of not seeing my friends. I'm more afraid for other people than for myself. During the time you were at war, did your view of some things change? Changed. Not dramatically. But a lot has changed. The values have become a little different. This is natural when you are under threat of death. You look at people differently and, of course, first of all, at human communication you look differently. In war there are no people who lie: either he is an enemy or he is a friend. Here I became convinced that in some of my views towards people I was wrong.

Next internal conflict in the DPR led to a major scandal among the separatists. The well-known Russian mercenary Veselina Cherdantseva from St. Petersburg, fighting on the side of the separatists and elevated to the rank of a heroine by Russian propaganda, is accused by her comrades of the murder of another mercenary from Russia Alexei Mayorov (call sign Musa), who came to Ukraine to fight from Novorossiysk Krasnodar region. The famous British journalist Graham Phillips, who sympathizes with pro-Russian militants, joined the investigation of the incident.
After Mayorov’s disappearance, his sister Tatyana Lesennaya sounded the alarm (VKontakte page https://vk.com/id159401068) In early January, she began posting advertisements about searching for her brother in the public pages of “DPR” supporters. According to Tatyana, her brother fought in a sabotage group led by a mercenary from Russia Veselina Cherdantseva (call sign Vasya) in Gorlovka. In early November, the group left Gorlovka, after which Alexey Mayorov disappeared. Tatyana is sure that her brother was killed by Cherdantseva and people from her DRG because of money.
“My brother Alexey Nikolaevich Mayorov, call sign Musa, was in the DPR militia. In Bezler's detachment under the leadership of Veselina Cherdantseva - Vasya. The whole group left Gorlovka in early November, but they lost my brother. During my searches, I found out that on Vasya’s orders, they took my brother Musa into the field and shot him, supposedly talking like a man. Vasya also took part in the execution of my brother. There is testimony to the police from Zaporozhko Dmitry, call sign Predator, that Musa began to be indignant that Vasya cheated the entire group out of money. Dmitry Zaporozhko does not deny that he, Vasya and a couple of other people shot at my brother and shot him in the legs and lung. Vasya decided to deal with him in her own way.
And when I personally called Vasya, she assured me that my brother went home on October 22 for family reasons. Now Vasya has put the brakes on the whole situation. There is no evidence yet that my brother is alive. I ask everyone to help me understand this situation. Shoot your own people - what could be blacker?? Vasya, this is a question for you,” wrote Tatyana Lesennaya in the Novorossiya INFO group.
The administrators of the group posted her appeal, emphasizing that they would not interfere in this story and were waiting for Cherdantseva’s response to the charges. But there was no answer.
After some time, Mayorov’s sister managed to find witnesses to the murder, who also helped find the burial place of the murdered Russian
Journalist of the Russian propaganda channel “RT” Graham Phillips also joined the search for the body of Alexei Mayorov, who decided to help the family of the deceased
They searched for Mayorov's body for a long time. Phillips shot several long videos that captured the process of searching for the body, and also recorded testimony from the relatives of the deceased.
Ultimately, the Russian’s body was found and identified by tattoos.
Alexey Mayorov fought in Cherdantseva’s group. There is a photo of them together.
Cherdantseva came to fight in Ukraine from St. Petersburg and joined Igor Bezler’s group in Gorlovka, where she became a sniper. (VKontakte page

A St. Petersburg woman who published a photo of a fugitive gang member Fedorovich told the website where and when she saw him
A resident of St. Petersburg, Veselina Cherdantseva, who published on her VKontakte page a photograph of St. Petersburg resident Sergei Ermolinsky (nickname “henri_spb”), who was put on the international wanted list on suspicion of complicity in the gang of Yekaterinburg lawyer-blogger Vasily Fedorovich, explained to the site when she saw Ermolinsky.
“This photograph, if you trace it through history, was taken in 2011. Knowing the reaction of many journalists, I just made fun of it and decided to “throw out” this photo. It shows that I am not like the modern person. This photo is old. I haven't seen him for a long time. I’m surprised that there was no reaction for so long; I posted the photo back in July.” Cherdantseva knows that Ermolinsky is wanted. The girl says that she “doesn’t need these problems,” but immediately adds: “If I had seen him there (he doesn’t specify where – editor’s note), I definitely wouldn’t have discovered him.”
Ermolinsky’s photo was posted on Cherdantseva’s page on July 8, 2014. “Who I didn’t expect to meet here was my old St. Petersburg friend Henry! But there was joy,” Cherdantseva captioned the photo. She does not specify where exactly “here” is.
There is a post above on the girl’s page that sheds light on where exactly she could meet Ermolinsky. On August 16, a certain Alexander Barkashov posted a photo of Cherdantseva in military uniform with an automatic weapon in her hands and a commentary on it: “Vasilina Cherdantseva - three months in the war. Now in the hospital in Krasnodar there are three shrapnel wounds (on the 24th). But he's going back in a week. These are the people!” Among other posts on the girl’s page, there are those that directly indicate that she for a long time was in the ranks of the Donbass militias.
Let us remind you that the case of Fedorovich’s gang was investigated by the Sverdlovsk department of the RF IC and is now being considered in the Sverdlovsk Regional Court (next hearing on September 9). There are nine accused in the dock. According to investigators, the group operated in the territory Sverdlovsk region from the mid-2000s to the summer of 2012. The victims were people who had money or valuable property, including real estate. They dealt with those who fell into the hands of bandits with particular cruelty. On Elmash, in the underground garage box, they even had a torture room, which was also used for cutting up corpses.
Security forces believe the gang consisted of 11 people. 30-year-old Daniil Potashnikov (was known in in social networks under the nickname “gd-ekb”), considered the second leader, was killed in May 2012 by his own accomplices. Sergei Ermolinsky (nickname “henri_spb”) has been put on the international wanted list, and a reward of 1 million rubles has been announced for him.
From the published materials of the case, it is known that Ermolinsky was involved in the murder of 23-year-old student of the Ural Mining University (UGGU) Yegor Polyansky. According to investigators, the young man was engaged in the manufacture and sale of smoking mixtures (the mother of the deceased says that he earned money by repairing and reselling cars). Through mutual acquaintances, he contacted lawyer Fedorovich to consult about the development of his business, and let slip about the money.
Together with Potashnikov, Fedorovich developed a plan for the next crime. Polyansky was told about a certain acquaintance who wants to sell a batch of drugs cheaply. He expressed a desire to purchase it and gave his future killers 100 thousand rubles as a deposit. Nobody handed over the drugs to the miner, so he began to demand the money back. The bandits decided to eliminate him.
Polyansky was kidnapped on the street. To prevent the victim from resisting, Danil Potashnikov was dressed in a police uniform, which Ivan Guzhin, a former employee of the line police department at the Shartash station of the Sveriges Railway, got for them. He approached the spice dealer and said that he was detained on suspicion of drug trafficking. Polyansky was taken to a garage, where he was tortured for a long time, trying to force him to give them money. He refused. Then he was taken to the 27th kilometer of the Serovsky tract, where they cut the arteries in his neck and groin, shot him in the back of the head with a pistol, doused him with gasoline and set him on fire.
During this period, Ermolinsky was located in the Sverdlovsk region. He came to the Ural Open Championship in knife fighting. “I thought for a long time about what to write about my trip to the Urals. Sorry, the impressions from the trip are not intended for a wide range of readers. Oh, how many wonderful memories will remain in my memory from this essentially short trip. Probably for the first time in my life I had the feeling that I didn’t want to go home. In general, many thanks to everyone - viper_ns (Vasily Fedorovich), Danil gd_ekb (Daniil Potashnikov) and his guys, and the wonderful Lenochka kryptozz. Come on, come to St. Petersburg,” Ermolinsky wrote after this trip in his LiveJournal.
After Fedorovich was detained in the summer of 2012, and then they began to come to other members of the group, nothing was known about “Henry” Ermolinsky. It was not possible to find him in St. Petersburg. They put him on the wanted list, but so far he has not produced any results. There is even a common version that Ermolinsky, like Potashnikov, was killed by his own people, they just haven’t admitted to what they did.
