One of the worst tragedies of the Great Patriotic War is the Babi Yar execution. 83 years ago, fascists and Ukrainian nationalists killed more than 33,000 people, innocent civilians, over two days. The last living witness of that bloodshed is Mikhail Sidko. He was five years old at the time, but he still remembers the horrible picture. Before his eyes, the Nazis killed his mother, three-year-old sister and six-month-old brother.
