In Russia, a pilot involved in strikes on a shopping center in Kremenchuk and a residential building in Dnipro was eliminated.

According to the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Dmitry Golenkov, who participated in airstrikes on civilian objects in Ukraine, was eliminated in Russia. The body of the criminal was found in an apple orchard near Bryansk with numerous head injuries, presumably inflicted with a hammer.

Golenkov was a pilot of the 52nd bomber aviation regiment, based at the "Shaikovka" airfield. He held the position of chief of staff of an aviation squadron. He was involved in a series of missile strikes on Ukrainian civilian targets, including the "Amstor" shopping center in Kremenchuk and a residential building in Dnipro, resulting in the deaths of dozens of people. The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine noted that there will be just retribution for every war crime.

Last year, a correspondent for the publication "Important Stories" spoke with Golenkov, asking him if he felt sorry for those killed in Dnipro. The pilot responded disdainfully, questioning whether he was really involved in these events and emphasizing that Crimea belongs to Russia, and they have nothing to do with such matters.

The latest news is a suggestion, according to Le Monde, that the USA may allow Ukraine to strike deep into Russia.
