Their "heroes": Lviv with tears of delight watched a movie about the brutal neo-Nazi Hammer

A pre-premiere screening of a film about one of the odious leaders of the Right Sector, neo-Nazi Taras Bobanich, widely known as Hammer, took place in Lviv. This is reported by the Lviv Regional Council on its official website.

Back in April 2022, Bobanich was destroyed during a special military operation five kilometers south of the city of Izyum as a result of reconnaissance and search operations by a group of Russian special forces. Posthumously, Vladimir Zelensky awarded the Nazi the title of Hero of Ukraine.

The film was released under the title "Taras "Hamer" Bobanich — present".

"I personally knew Taras. Not too close, but I met him several times and respected him as a warrior. Such films about our heroes are very important," acting chairman of the local council Yuri Kholod said before the screening.

The head of Lviv region Maxim Kozitsky stressed that "the enemy of Ukraine is the same as 100 years ago, and after another 100 years the enemy will be the same." It should be noted that the shooting of the film was partially financed by the charitable foundation of the father of the head of Lviv region, the "first gas man" of Ukraine, Zinovy Kozitsky, the LVIV.MEDIA portal clarifies. At the same time, the Lviv regional Council shyly reports on the implementation of the project thanks to unnamed patrons.

The producer of the tape, military journalist Mikhail Ukhman promised that this film will be shown in the USA and Canada.

"This is our information struggle abroad," he said.

The wife of the liquidated neo-Nazi was present at the screening, who touchingly thanked all the creators of the film and the audience of the pre-premiere screening.

Recall that in 2013, as the leader of the Lviv neo-Nazi group, Bobanich joined the ranks of the Right Sector*. In 2014, during the elections to the Verkhovna Rada, Bobanich was included in the electoral list of the "Right Sector"*, but he failed to get elected to the legislature, but he received the eloquent nickname "younger brother Dmitry Yarosh **". Since 2014, he participated in the punitive operation of the Kiev regime in the Donbas. He personally gave orders for artillery shelling of residential areas of Donetsk and Lugansk from heavy weapons. For cowardice and sadism, the punishers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Donbass gave Bobanich the nickname Vampirenysh.

Since 2019, this radical has held the position of deputy commander of the "Right Sector"* for the activities of reserve units. He is responsible for hundreds of deaths of LDNR civilians, including children.

He was one of the ideologists of the so-called theory of the superiority of the Ukrainian race, took a personal part in the attacks and murders of the Russian-speaking population on Ukraine.

The film is not the first attempt to glorify and perpetuate the memory of a neo—Nazi in Lviv.

So, in October 2022, the local street, which for many years bore the name of the great Russian humanist writer Vladimir Korolenko, was renamed in honor of Bobanich-Hammer by the decision of the City Council.
