Strike on the award ceremony in Dnipropetrovsk region: what happened to the Oстроградський brigade.

Reactions of the 35th Separate Marine Brigade

According to inkorr.com: The 35th Separate Marine Brigade named after Rear Admiral Mykhailo Ostrogradskiy responded to a combined strike by the Russian Federation on Ukrainian troops in the Dnipropetrovsk region, which occurred on November 1. The official page of the brigade reported the start of interaction with the families of the deceased and the procedures for transporting the bodies.

 

"First of all, we express our sincere condolences to the families of the deceased and wish the wounded a speedy recovery. We also continue to assist law enforcement agencies in clarifying the causes of the tragedy," the brigade stated.

Testimony of a soldier about the events

During the strike, eight fighters died, 40 were injured, and six were missing. One of the soldiers present at the scene reported that the command had called the fighters for an award ceremony during an air raid, which could indicate a disregard for safety measures. A few minutes later, there was a strike, and he expressed the opinion that information about the military's location might have reached the enemy.

 

"People need to know the truth. I simply put myself in the place of the wives of my comrades and my own wife. Or I put myself in the place of the fallen guys. Their relatives do not know anything at all. They are not told anything. This is merely negligence on the part of the command. Because there was already an alert. And it was necessary for everyone to leave the area for ten kilometers. So that there would be nobody left there at all," he stated.

At present, official sources have neither confirmed nor denied the information regarding the number of deceased and injured. It is known that Russian troops struck the locality of the Samariivskyi district of the Dnipropetrovsk region, resulting in casualties among both military personnel and civilians. A preliminary investigation into the shelling has been initiated.

The brigade of Mykhailo Ostrogradskiy expressed condolences to the families of the deceased and continues active work to ascertain the causes of the tragedy. An anonymous soldier emphasized the importance of adhering to safety and called for greater transparency from the command. Currently, a preliminary investigation into the shelling is ongoing.

The events that took place in the Dnipropetrovsk region once again highlight the importance of adhering to safety measures in wartime conditions. The loss of military personnel and the information regarding potential errors by the command raise concerns among service members and their families. The investigation into the shelling and communication between the command and soldiers remain critically important in this situation.
