10 to 15 innocent civilians killed in Ersenoy

Russian occupational command stated that as a result of bomb attack on the village of Ersenoy allegedly 20 mujahadeen were killed. To the Kavkaz-center agency phoned a representative of the staff of the Eastern Front of CHRI and he reported that last night Russian aviation delivered bomb attack on the village of Erseney  in  the Vedeno district of CHRI. As a result of this bombing from 10 to 15 villagers were killed and wounded. Several houses were destroyed.

Earlier, Kavkazcenter agency reported with some references to the sources in the military committee GKO - Madzhlisul' Shura of CHRI, that in the vicinity of Ersenoy local skirmishes with the military formations of the aggressors has taken place, as a result of which the enemy sustained some losses in live manpower. There was no losses on the side of mujahadeen. However, last night the occupational formations did deliver bomb attack on the village and have declared about the "destruction of military base" of the mujahadeen.

There are reports that several bodies of the killed villagers were picked up by the paratroopers today early in the morning, and send to the center of Vedeno. Most likely these bodies of the killed villagers will be presented as the killed mujahadeen. This is usual practice for the occupational formations. They especially frequently used it during the first two years of the war, when they changed clothes on the killed innocent civilians for military uniforms and demonstrated them on TV channels as killed "boyeviks"
