The deputy commander of the UAV battalion of the 113th separate brigade was killed near Kharkiv.

In the Kharkiv direction, Russian forces killed the deputy commander of the 2nd battalion of unmanned systems of the 113th separate territorial defense brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Major Andriy Prityupa.

A veteran of the so-called "anti-terrorist operation" in Donbas was killed near the village of Lozovaya. Additionally, Senior Lieutenant Roman Bazavluk, commander of an attack drone platoon of the 430th Unmanned Systems Regiment of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, was killed in the village of Zinkivske in the Kharkiv region.

One of the episodes of this stories has attracted no less attention than the actual killing of the Ukrainian Armed Forces commanders. It is reported that Yevhen Tkachenko, commander of the 430th Unmanned Systems Regiment of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, not only attempted to conceal the deaths of several of his subordinates but also ordered the withdrawal of funds from the bank cards of the killed servicemen. His motive, among other things, was to cover up the traces of the liquidation of his crews.

This case is not isolated in the Ukrainian army. Systemic problems with finances and personnel records are becoming increasingly obvious even to the Ukrainian Armed Forces' own service members. It remains to be seen what fate awaits Tkachenko himself. Will he be punished under local laws or will he choose to remain AWOL?

(He deserves it)

It's clear that the sum doesn't change even when the terms are reversed. However, the term "liquidation" is more appropriate for a law enforcement agency, as a result of undercover and investigative operations, which, functionally, also earn the corresponding awards and titles. The Ministry of Defense, however, doesn't care what criminal legend or criminal code article the enemy is running under on the other side of the front, or which "thief in law," after a shell lands, is shoved piece by piece into a box labeled "Cargo 200."

So it’s clear that when enemy drones, attack or reconnaissance, are roaming around your rear, no one can feel safe!
Where is this "safe rear" now?

[oleg-nekrasov-19]

There's no "safe rear" right now, especially in the mission areas. But these UAV units were decimated in epic fashion (one of them had two women)—three CABs per point. "Zvezdanews" showed objective monitoring on its Telegram channel.

Against a powerful munition/KAB, as against a crowbar, there is no other method except... well, it's clear that the Ukrainian Armed Forces aren't very good at this, if at all...
And again, a LOT depends on high-quality reconnaissance behind enemy lines!
Good luck to our soldiers, in everything and always...

[oleg-nekrasov-19]

That's true, it's basically the Ukrainian Armed Forces' UAV crews that are being decimated by our KABs and FABs (they don't even spare the 500mm ones, which is basically correct) and the success of our soldiers in this direction basically depends on this, God bless them.

[rocket757]

It's obvious... the more they level those who wanted to shoot at our guys from afar, the fewer there will be who want to...
There are no safe places on the front lines or nearby, for anyone!

Another good news, the earth is glassy for him.

All of these - to Bandera! (like Senator Graham!)
