The Commander of the National Guard spoke about whether Redis and other leaders of 'Azov' will participate in combat operations.

The Commander of the National Guard, Oleksandr Pivnenko, reported whether the leaders of 'Azov' would participate in combat operations. He stated this in his interview with 'Ukrainska Pravda'.

'They are preparing and will execute tasks just like others. For me, there is no prohibition that they are fighting while others are not,' said the Commander of the National Guard.

Pivnenko also noted that he does not decide where exactly each leader engages in combat actions. The National Guard operates under the command of the Supreme Commander and other leaders. They give orders, and he executes them.

Earlier, the commander of one of the 'Azov' battalions spoke about how comrades refer to Redis.

The commander of the 'Azov' brigade, Colonel Denys Prokopenko, called for changes in military management and organization of forces for conducting war. He also expressed his outrage regarding the exchange of prisoners.
