| Troops of the Russian 37 Motor Rifle Brigade conduct dynamic change of command |
| 2022-03-26 |
| [WIRE] A Russian brigade commander was allegedly killed by his own troops in response to the staggering number of losses the unit had suffered during its invasion of Ukraine under his leadership. "A Russian brigade commander has been killed deliberately by his own troops after his unit suffered many losses in Ukraine," Sky News reporter Deborah Haynes reported. "Colonel Medvechek, commander of 37 Motor Rifle Brigade, was run over by his soldiers." "The brigade commander of one of the units was killed by his own troops...we believe, as a consequence of the scale of loss that had been taken by his brigade," a Western official reportedly told Haynes. "That just gives an insight into perhaps some of the morale challenges that Russian forces are having." "We believe he was killed by his own troops deliberately," the official reportedly added. "Indeed we believe he was run over by his own troops and I believe he was the commander of the 37 Motor Rifle Brigade." Reuters, using claims from Ukrainian officials, reported that up to six Russian generals had been killed during the war along with dozens of colonels and other officers. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) revealed this week that it believes that the Russian military has suffered up to 40,000 casualties during its invasion of Ukraine, which began one month ago. |
