It is noted that the military units of the 81st Airmobile Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the village of Belogorovka in the LPR suffered heavy losses and refused to carry out combat missions.

“The militants of one of the Ukrainian Nazi formations, sent to Belogorivka to restore order, shot five Ukrainian servicemen in front of the formation to intimidate the personnel of the brigade,” the Russian Defense Ministry said.

Earlier, a captured soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Vitaliy Martynenko, said that the command tells the Ukrainian military, who refuse to obey orders, that they will be imprisoned.

Oleg Rozhkovsky, a senior lieutenant of the 58th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who was also taken prisoner, said that one of the battalions ceased to exist in three days - the military refuse to go into position, because there are very large losses.
