Armed mutiny of 04.10.1993

Beitar and the US Embassy in October 1993

Mikhail Mashkarin, Rassvet newspaper, 1998.



How the "Beitar members" acted in October 1993 was recounted to the editorial office of our newspaper a few days after those sad events by RSFSR People's Deputy V. I. Kotelnikov, one of the active defenders of the "White House." For that candid account, published in Rassvet (1993, October, No. 40) under the title "People Were Killed Cynically and Calculatedly," our newspaper was "warned" and subjected to legal prosecution. This is the first documentary description in Russia of the reprisal by the Yeltsinists and their allies against the defenders of Soviet power, the defenders of the Constitution.

Vyacheslav Ivanovich Kotelnikov described the beginning of the bloody 4th of October 1993 as follows: "Early in the morning everyone was awakened by shooting. Three BTRs approached at high speed. These were BTRs of a special combat organization which, with Gorbachev's permission, had obtained legality in Russia. I have nothing against Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Jews; in general, for me all nationalities are equal and equally respected, but there is aggressive Zionism. The BTRs belonged to the organization "BO-SER" - the combat organization of Zionists. So it was from these very BTRs that the first 12 people in the tent camp were killed. That is how it began." And further, our fellow countryman recounted in detail the bloody reprisal carried out against the people in the center of Moscow, of which he was a witness and participant. It should be emphasized that what V. I. Kotelnikov recounted "hot on the trail" was later confirmed in the accounts of other RSFSR People's Deputies and other participants in those events on the pages of Russia's patriotic press. And in many publications under various titles, the Zionist organizations that took part in the shooting of the Russian parliament are mentioned - "BOSya - the combat organization of Zionists," which V. I. Kotelnikov spoke about, as well as "Beitar." Both names are found in the literature, but apparently the same terrorist Zionist organization is meant.

This is how the events are described by a member of the Union of Writers of Russia, Doctor of Economic Sciences, Professor O. A. Platonov, who published in Moscow the magnificent, thorough work "The Crown of Thorns of Russia: The History of the Russian People of the 20th Century". The book, by the way, is dedicated to the memory of the great patriot of Russia, Metropolitan of St. Petersburg and Ladoga John, who died in November 1995, but managed to bless the publication of this scholarly work. In the second volume (the volume consists of 1040 pages (!) - M. M.) of this work, published in 1997, O. A. Platonov writes: "On Saturday and Sunday, 2-3 October, hundreds of thousands of people came out onto the streets of Moscow. The overwhelming part of Russian people demanded Yeltsin's resignation by peaceful means. The former president (meaning Mr. Yeltsin, to whom the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation declared impeachment - M. M.) in those days was supported mainly by "new Russians" criminal groups and persons connected with them, a large part of Jews and Caucasians and, of course, the intelligentsia of the "small people", who traditionally called on Yeltsin for a pogrom of Russian people. Jewish financial clans, enriched by plundering the national wealth of the Russian people, allocated large sums of money and their militants to suppress the people's resistance to the criminal anti-constitutional regime. No less actively the Western governments and their special services supported Yeltsin's coup d'état. Thousands of agents of the CIA, Israeli special services and the Jewish military-terrorist, pogrom organization "Beitar" (p. 783) took part in the October events.

A few pages later, the book describes the direct participation of the armed Zionist thugs whom V. I. Kotelnikov spoke about above. Here is how, according to Professor O. A. Platonov, "Beitar" participated in the bloody events of 4 October: "The reprisal against unarmed Russian people began with an attack by BTRs manned by crews of the Jewish military-terrorist organization "Beitar." The first bursts from the Beitar BTRs killed about forty unarmed people who were spending the night in tents near the "White House." The armored vehicles drove over the tents, crushing not only sleeping men but also women and children (for many Russian people had come to defend the "White House" with their families). Those who accidentally survived were shot from machine guns. The Beitar BTRs also swept away with fire a makeshift chapel with praying women and killed a priest. Then all the enormous firepower came down on the building of the "White House" (p. 787). And here O. A. Platonov cites the then Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation, A. I. Kazannik, who condemned that reprisal by the militants against unarmed people: "The events of 4 October must be qualified as a crime committed on grounds of revenge."

That is what Zionism in action is, that is what its "Beitar" is! But, unfortunately, Russia's law enforcement agencies still have not put an end to the "case" of the participation of Zionists in the shooting of the country's legally elected parliament - the Supreme Soviet. Meanwhile, Zionism in Russia, as throughout the world, is raising its head and sowing discord between the Russian people and ordinary Jews - patriots of our Motherland, who suffer from Yeltsin's reforms and from fratricidal wars and strife just as do the other peoples of our multinational, long-suffering Fatherland.


Marat Musin, author of the book "Anathema. Chronicles of the State Coup" (under the pseudonym Ivan Ivanov):
As we have learned, that night several hundred armed militants were concentrated around the General Staff building under the "roof" of the UVA (Union of Veterans of Afghanistan), including several dozen "Beitar" members on armored vehicles, who, having convinced themselves of the loyalty of the leadership of the Ministry of Defense, officially turned the Russian General Staff into one of the areas of their concentration. At 6:15-6:20 (October 4, 1993), on the personal order of Grachev and Kotenev, they were the first to begin moving on armored vehicles toward the "White House" together with the BTRs and BMP-2s of the MVD. Upon arriving there at 6:43, straight from the armor they began mercilessly shooting at the parliament and its unarmed defenders. Practically all of them were dressed in black leather jackets, which in itself involuntarily evokes ominous historical analogies. They took the building of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff in a tight ring and placed their armored personnel carriers around it. Until the night of the 3rd to the 4th of September, the UVA militants, on the personal instruction of Grachev, were inside the building of the "unreliable" General Staff and Ministry of Defense, however, on the historic night of the bloody denouement of the state coup, they were officially asked to leave it for the street and were no longer allowed into the building, with an exception made for Kotenev alone.


At dawn, information arrived that about 300-400 "Beitar" members armed with small arms were heading toward the "White House." Petrovich ordered Boxer and Kotenev to move out to meet the militants with their six men, giving them clear instructions. His men were not afraid of the legal Zionist militants, armed still by Gorbachev. The appearance of an armed screen stopped the "Beitar" members.


It is documented by several witness testimonies that the commanders of the airborne and Taman units that came under fire were approached several times by officers of the FSK (then MB RF) and MVD "surveillance" who reported that the fire was being conducted by their own - government snipers, tracer shooters of the former "Ninth" and unknown snipers from the roof of the US embassy and its residential compound (the officers of the "Seventh," evidently, did not know about the presence of visiting foreign snipers among the shooters of the GUO RF), they advised the airborne troops and Taman men to be more careful, since, according to them, the snipers of the GUO RF have extensive experience going back to the war in Afghanistan, and they do not care whom they kill. The "surveillance" officers told in detail exactly from where the government snipers were conducting fire (they pointed out the buildings corresponding to the auditory and apartment windows); they especially singled out the brazen snipers from the roof of the US embassy and advised not to turn one's back to them, since, according to them, those snipers do not obey any of "ours."


Part of the BTRs of the Dzerzhinsky Division was handed over to the "Beitar" members of the UVA. The fat jackpot that had been withheld from those maimed in Afghanistan and saved on the backs of the boys who died there was for the first time thrown from the government table and went to Kotenev. On the morning of October 4, the order of the MVD generals was sounded to take no one prisoner. The civilian crews of the BTRs ("Beitar") set the merciless tone of the actions of all participants in the operation, shooting about forty unarmed barricade defenders with their very first bursts. From just one Dzerzhinsky Division of the Internal Troops of the MVD, 23 BTRs (military unit 3500, 3419) took part in the shooting of the parliament.


Rutskoy was beside himself over what was happening. Having learned about the dark-haired fellows in leather jackets on armored personnel carriers and with pump-action shotguns in their hands, Rutskoy swore foully: "...F...ing kikes! It's all Boxer with his cutthroats! F...ing Sverdlovsk mafia!" As if he knew what would happen literally a few hours later - how on the blood of those who fell at the shot-up "White House" (opposite the mayor's office) the Hasidim would joyfully dance the ritual dance of Sukkot (documented by video materials of Russian television).


Somewhere around 6:50, shots were heard from the direction of the embankment, and toward the barricade on Rochdelskaya Street (on the right, if looking toward the river) three BTRs dashed out, firing occasional bursts upward in the direction of the "White House." They stopped. Some people in black leather jackets and lighter-colored trousers with guns (not automatic rifles, but guns) in their hands jumped down from atop the armor. They ran toward the fences near the square and the motor depot, climbed over them and ran behind the little houses and other obstacles (the "Beitar" members of the UVA were, among other things, also armed with pump-action large-caliber guns of foreign manufacture. - Auth.).


The continuous roar, very intense, continued until 10:00. Then the bursts became less frequent. They fired from machine guns, cannons, automatic rifles. Single shots were heard, either pistol or gun shots, for the most part from the direction of the adjoining square (fire at unarmed people from the children's park was conducted by "Beitar" and the Internal Troops of the MVD of General Romanov. - Auth.).


As we have now established, the BTRs of the Taman men and the airborne troops of the 119th Airborne Regiment were fired upon by the BTRs of the MVD of General Anatoly Romanov, the snipers of Korzhakov and the "Beitar" members, who had received an official order to kill army officers and a false report about the 119th "Achalov" regiment going over to the side of the parliament (Vladislav Achalov had, indeed, once served in the 119th regiment, only not an airborne one, but a tank one. - Auth.). The commanders of the assault deliberately tried to enrage the army men.


The lists of those who arrived and departed through the international airport "Sheremetyevo-2" in the period from October 1 to 5, 1993, were destroyed, including two male groups of "foreign tourists," teams of "rugby players"... that mysteriously disappeared on the territory of Russia.


The fact has been established of repeated contacts by the heads of the president's personal security, headed by the deputy chief of the presidential security directorate Boris Prosvirin, directly with the "undercover" organizations of the "Mossad" special service and their representatives during their first joint operation to compromise and remove the Vice President of the Russian Federation. The incredible alliance took shape in May 1993 and finally formed after August 18 in the phase of public implementation of the operation, deliberately carried out abroad bypassing and without involving in this joint work specialists of the Russian special services (contacts were first documented on July 21-23, 1993 in Zurich. Prosvirin flew abroad for secret negotiations repeatedly).


On September 17, the first group of snipers of the so-called "Organization" (the renamed "Beitar"), which reports directly to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of a foreign state, departed for Moscow as citizens of Russia, and on October 5-6 they left back on Israeli passports (under the cover of the MB RF) by trains through Warsaw, Berlin and Bucharest. In total, according to data, for example, of Lieutenant General A.F. Dunaev, on October 3-4 more than 78 special forces soldiers from Israel were involved in the Moscow events. According to a source in the FSK cited by Radio "Svoboda" - 100-150, Mark Deich gives the figure 100-110.


The officers of Group "A" determined within the very first minutes that the officer Gennady Sergeev had been shot by a sniper who was by no means one of the defenders of the parliament. To them, as professionals, it immediately became clear that the shots had been fired from the building of the factory and the hotel "Mir", occupied by troops of the GUO and the MVD, and in one of the firing points they suppressed in response (in the hotel "Mir", which they spotted by the flash) among four corpses (confirmed by data from Radio "Svoboda", materials of Mark Deich) they discovered a sniper in the uniform of a militia lieutenant colonel and three corpses with two SVDs in their hands, apparently young Jews, identified by our officers as "Beitar members". Among the cover documents of the killed, an MVD employee's ID and a badge with RNE symbols were found. Despite the fact that these facts were documented by the primary reports of the operatives, all the corpses mysteriously and without a trace disappeared from the closed premises.

Below is a frame from an amateur video recording of October 5, 1993. The comment of the author of the recording: "Notice how there at the end, after the shooting, already on the 5th, the Beitar members mock. Along Novy Arbat, past the shot-out shop windows, a truck is driving, and in the back people in kippahs are dancing, rejoicing."

The video recording itself can be viewed below in the gallery.

Unfortunately, apparently the cassette lay on the shelf for too long. Precisely on these frames the film has either already crumbled or is chewed up.

And here is how a certain Kirill Gilyarov, a freelance correspondent of the Zionist newspaper "Moscow-Jerusalem", describes these events:

"So, on October 5 a group of young Chabad members set off from the synagogue on Bolshaya Bronnaya, building 6, to the White House in order to congratulate Muscovites on the holiday of Sukkot."

(one can travel from the synagogue only in a military Ural, in order to congratulate Muscovites in a most original way at the site of the shooting of hundreds of people)


"a painted truck with an incomprehensible inscription arrives at the scene of the tragedy: "Dear Muscovites! The Moscow community HaBaD-Lubavitch congratulates you on the holiday of Sukkot!"
(compare with the inscription on the freeze-frame above) the supporters of the Supreme Soviet were antisemitically inclined.

"Yids! Why did you come here?! Get out of here!" - angry shouts were heard from the crowd. Several people grabbed rebar and began slowly advancing on our truck. And then stones flew at the truck. More precisely, large chunks of asphalt torn up during the armed events. They were thrown by a middle-aged man in glasses, dressed in a leather jacket. Having left the ill-fated place, we arrived at the synagogue in Maryina Roshcha, where a toast was made that "Russian people would stop killing each other".

(the behavior of the "antisemitically inclined" is quite understandable, considering that the Chabad members were rejoicing and dancing in the back of their truck, according to the author of the video)

In order to divert the attention of the world and American public from the planned tragic events in Moscow on October 3-4, including the shooting of the Russian parliament, the US State Department for the first time in its history sacrificed the elite unit "Delta", deliberately sending it into a trap in Somalia. The attention of Americans, naturally, was diverted from the events in Moscow and, moreover, on the level of the subconscious and emotions was programmed to support the actions of any army against insurgents (analogies of Somalia and Russia). About this story of the shameful betrayal by the Americans of their 200 fighters of elite units, the feature film "Black Hawk Down" was made.

On October 3, 1993, in Somalia, where a civil war was then going on, the command of the American contingent was developing a plan for an operation during which about 200 US servicemen as part of Task Force "Ranger" (Operational-Tactical Group "Ranger" - 75th Ranger Regiment - company of the 3rd Battalion, 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, "Delta"), based on the outskirts of Mogadishu, were sent into the area of the city controlled by the forces of General Mohamed Farrah Aidid, in effect to the slaughter. The formal pretext was to capture key supporters of Aidid who had gathered for a meeting in the city and deliver them to the base. The result: continuous round-the-clock fighting while surrounded, two downed helicopters and 18 killed American rangers. But Moscow was worth it.
