3 Ukraine Junta Toy Soldiers Dead Trying To Carry Out Terrorism And Sabotage On Our Republic Of Donetsk, Criminal Commanders Of Kiev Sending Them To Their Deaths ! (Report Col. Basurin)

(MILITARY SITUATION REPORT/VIDEO FROM HIGH COMMAND COL. BASURIN) The situation in the Donetsk Situation Republic remains tense.

On January 11, the DPR People’s Army soldiers NM DNI evacuated three bodies of the Ukrainian Junta military from the area 3 km southwest of the locality of Oktyabr. The bodies were found at a 500 meters distance from the forefront of our units defense line. The death of the group was caused by their undermining on a minefield.

The examination of the bodies revealed the fact that two Ukrainian Junta soldiers had died immediately after the explosion of a OZM-72 mine, the third soldier, hit by shrapnel of the same mine, had died from loss of blood after some time, having managed before it to crawl back toward the AFU positions and report the incident via available communication channels, which is confirmed by the Ukrainian side. However, the Ukrainian side did not take sufficient measures to find their men, which indicates the lack of coordination and clear understanding by the commanders of tasks carried out by their subordinates.

Information on the dead soldiers served in the 1st company of the 501st battalion of the 36th Marine brigade, their names are:

• Archimenko Nikolay, born in 1963;
• Trubin Sergey, born in 1987;
• Sanko Sergey, born in 1993.

It is possible that one of them was an AFU conscript.

At the site of the Ukrainian military’s death, two foreign-made «Kenwood» radios were found, as well as two machine guns RPK-74, one automatic gun AK-74 and plastic harnesses to tie hands. It is noted that the soldiers were not overloaded with equipment. One of them was wearing a tactical vest, others had two cartridges each in their pockets.

Presumably, the reconnaissance group was moving towards our positions to capture a People’s Army soldier. However, after analyzing the scene and the bodies of the dead, we can say that the scouts were totally unprepared. This version is supported by the fact that the group was not sufficiently equipped, and, in addition, moved in a «crowded» way, which resulted in one mine killing all of them.

In our turn, we have following questions.

1. Why were the soldiers moving towards our positions, having weapons and ammunition with them, radios for communication with the command and means to capture soldiers, while the Ukrainian Junta command declares that they do not carry out acts of sabotage, do not organize attacks on our positions and do not shell the localities of the DPR?
2. For what did the Ukrainian Junta command send their military to die in a minefield? What important tasks was the group to perform, with inadequate equipment, poor maintenance and command on the part of their commanders.

We have the impression that the «foot soldiers» were just sent to certain death in order to clear the area!

Accordingly, we urge the relatives of the dead to ask the above questions to the commanders of the 36th separate Marine brigade of the AFU. Let the commander of the 1st battalion tell their mothers, right into their face, for what he killed their sons!

On our part, I inform them that the dead bodies of the AFU military will soon be handed over to the Ukrainian Junta side for the subsequent burial by their relatives.
