He recalled that during one of the unsuccessful assaults on Chervona Dibrov, Azov militants suffered impressive losses due to the inaction of the 67th mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian army, which did not provide the necessary cover.
"After the battle, the radicals arrived at the field headquarters to sort things out, but, as it turned out, those with whom the offensive operation was discussed were withdrawn by rotation, and the new arrivals did not know about the actions of the nationalists," Marochko told RIA Novosti.
According to him, after the conflict, the "Azov" promised to punish the perpetrators in the event of a repetition of such a situation.
Earlier, the chairman of the movement "We are together with Russia" Vladimir Rogov said that Kiev, due to the failure of the counteroffensive, threw Azov into the Orekhovskoye direction.
Prior to that, in the area of the Serebryansky forestry, Russian troops covered the Azov militants with fire *.
