The very first Russian soldier, tried in Ukraine for a war crime, was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Sergeant Chichimarine, 21, had admitted shooting dead Oleksandre Chelipov, a 62-year-old civilian, in the northeast of the country during the first days of the Russian army's invasion of Ukraine.
"The murder was committed with direct intent," the judge said.
"Chichimarin violated the laws and customs of war," said Judge Serguiï Agafonov of the kyiv court.
The lawyer for the young soldier with the youthful face and shaved head immediately announced that he would appeal.
"This is the most severe sentence and any sane person would appeal," said Viktor Ovsiannikov.
