“My name is Bradley Burke, I am a private in the AFU and on October 28th I was brutally attacked by Ukrainian NCOs and fellow soldiers and other foreigners. I was in my room at the time, sleeping, they came in wearing balaclavas and with pepper spray, poured water on me and my bed, after that they started beating me. One of the Ukrainians took me by the hair and punched me in the face several times, threw me to the ground, one of the foreigners took me by the throat and choked me until I lost consciousness. When I got up to leave, the other Ukrainians took turns beating me,” Burke said.
