  • Grigory Khristofovich Zass (russe : Григорий Христофорович Засс; allemand : Georg Otto Ewald Freiherr von Saß) est un général de l'empire russe né le 29 avril 1797 en Westphalie et mort le 4 décembre 1883 dans l'empire Russe. Zass a commandé les troupes russes au cours de la guerre russo-circassienne où il devient connu à cause de ses opinions profondément racistes et ses méthodes cruelles contre les Circassiens, qu'il considère comme une « race inférieure », ce qui selon lui justifiait leur massacre et leur utilisation dans des expériences scientifiques. Zass appliquait des méthodes cruelles comme immoler des victimes vivantes, les décapiter par jeu, raser par le feu des villages densément peuplés, provoquer des épidémies volontairement, le viol en masse d'enfants et d'autres actes. Il a fondé la ville d'Armavir en 1839. (fr)

  • The savages panicked and started fleeing from their homes, leaving their weapons behind attempting to escape to the forest but most of them were killed by the Cossacks ... with the soldiers lined up ready to fight, the cleansing continued with artillery shells, and I sent there two infantry brigades, but they could only capture 11 more people, and since the fire was in flames in many places, the rest were either killed or burned after attempting to escape by hiding on the roofs of their homes or by the manure. So like this, we destroyed and destructed the neighborhood. (en)
  • Zass with his thick mustache, Is hanging the skulls of our men on sticks. Our children in the wombs of mothers, He stabs them out with a sword. Children's bodies taken from the mother's womb, They play with them on sticks. The atrocities committed by the enemy, Our new born generations should not forget. (en)
  • I captured three Circassians from carriages that were on their way to fetch grass, other than the thirteen we already had, who did not wish to surrender to us voluntarily, so I ordered to kill them. (en)
