Reply to comment by Better_illini_2008 in Russians kidnapped 30 mayors, 7 of them went missing – Kyiv Mayor by PandaMuffin1

23 flipped, possibly. Perhaps decided their lives were worth more than their morals and ethics. Can't blame them.

They probably told the Russians everything they knew. Or, played along with the invading army's demands anyway.

The ones who disappeared may have held out too long, or perhaps the invading army thought they had more to offer than they actually did.

The mayors who didn't get kidnapped at all are the ones who just immediately switched sides and started parroting Russian propaganda. Of course many of them are now dead, targeted specifically by Ukraine, and personally I'd agree valid military targets.

Ukranian mayor Olga Sukhenko was executed alongside her family. Yuriy Prylypko was killed too. Russian puppets Ivan Sushko, Vitaly Gur, Vladimir Saldo, and many others were assassinated for their perceived treason.

Not sure why you have Olga Sukhenko alongside the others, wasn't she and her family killed by Russians because she helped the Ukrainian military?

Including both Olga Sukhenko and Yuriy Prylypko alongside the rest of the traitor makes it seem like they were killed by the Ukrainians when in fact they were killed by Russians because Yuriy was helping the local people.

Yes, absolutely. Sorry I wasn't clear - Olga and Yuriy were killed by Russians because they wouldn't flip.
