The acting head of the LPR People's Militia department, Colonel Mikhail Filiponenko, announced this during a briefing, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The state of military discipline and combat readiness of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the ATO zone is at an extremely low level. Drunkenness, drug addiction and cases of desertion continue,” he noted.
The disintegration of discipline and desertion sentiments lead to further non-combat losses among the already significantly understaffed units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“So, in the 54th brigade, as a result of internal disassembly, three servicemen were stabbed. There, as a result of careless handling of weapons while heavily intoxicated, one military man was injured,” the colonel said.
“In the 80th brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, one brigade soldier was killed and two were moderately injured from the explosion of an ammunition warehouse on the territory of the Schastyinskaya Thermal Power Plant. In addition, one serviceman, while on combat duty in a state of drug intoxication, decided to commit suicide, but only had enough strength to shoot him in the arm,” Filiponenko added.
