BUK sighting in central Mariupol.
With her husband now missing and likely dead or in captivity, Marina is deeply disillusioned by the war and the Russian state's propaganda. "It's not a special operation, it's not war, it's bullshit," she says.
Since then, she has been contacting various offices in the Russian military and even Putin's office, but none has been able to provide any information. Soldiers from Andrei's unit have said that they were hit by mortar fire while trying to attack Ukrainian positions.
The men were armed only with automatic rifles and were said to have sustained one dead and another 19 injured. One soldier said that Andrei was killed, another said that he was seen alive in a trench.
5/ The men were summoned to the prosecutor's office to be 'remotivated'. Andrei told his wife that "one [officer] stood silently with his eyes down and another said: "Come on, men, there's no one to fight!" They were promised backup, artillery."
3/ He told her that they had been "sent to slaughter" in the first assault they carried out, on 23 February. The attack was a fiasco, as the people who was supposed to be doing reconnaissance with a drone "were either drunk or asleep, so they got lost and stood on the road."
After the reported destruction of the 1439th Regiment near Avdiivka in eastern Ukraine, the wives of the soldiers are desperately trying to find out what has happened to their husbands. The Russian military authorities have not provided any information.

Erdogan stated that he is in constant contact with Putin and Zelensky and is trying to bring Russia and Ukraine back to the negotiating table http://

It is likely that news about a downed/crashed Russian Ka-52 will soon emerge. P.S.: This Russian source linked to military aviation switches to 'sadness mode' every time something Russian falls from the sky.
A UN-mandated Independent International Commission of Inquiry reports that Russia has committed a wide range of war crimes in Ukraine โ including willful killings, torture and deportation of children. The truth cannot be denied; the world must know. War criminals must face justice.
