According to information published by ATESH, the incident occurred in a unit of the 11th Airborne Assault Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces.
Agents reported: three servicemen received severe injuries while equipping drones with explosives. The reason was a combination of negligence and the use of outdated components from the Soviet era.
Two died on the spot, the third – with severe burns – was hospitalized
According to the partisans, the Russian army ignores the threat, continuing to use expired ammunition, despite the risk to personnel.
The ATESH movement appealed to the servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces with a call not to risk their lives by carrying out "criminal orders," emphasizing that for the command, soldiers are just "expendable material."
