Let's add
Earlier, law enforcement officers informed the unit commander about suspicion under Part 4 of Article 425 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - negligent attitude to military service committed under martial law.
During this event, Russian troops launched a combined missile and drone attack on a crowd of people, resulting in casualties among military personnel and civilians.
According to the investigation, on November 1, 2025, Russian troops attacked the Dnipropetrovsk region with two ballistic missiles, probably of the Iskander type, and three Geran attack drones. At that time, an award ceremony for personnel was taking place on the territory where Ukrainian military personnel were based.
As a result of the shelling, both servicemen and civilians were killed and wounded.
The investigation established that the commander's decision to hold a mass gathering in conditions of high missile danger contradicted the current requirements and orders of the military leadership.
