It is noted that the work is carried out by a commission to investigate the causes of the incident.

“It is already obvious that the main reason for what happened was the inclusion and massive use, contrary to the ban, by personnel of mobile phones in the reach of enemy weapons,” the military department said in a Telegram message.

It is specified that this allowed the Armed Forces of Ukraine to locate and determine the coordinates for striking.

Measures are currently being taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.

It is also reported that the death toll as a result of a strike by the Ukrainian military on the settlement of Makiivka of the Russian military has increased to 89.

On January 3, events were held in Samara and Togliatti in memory of the soldiers who died in Makeyevka.
