A Ukrainian soldier stopped to chat with a friend near the dugout. Whether the machine gun seemed too heavy to him, or whether he confused his AK-74 with an umbrella is unknown. The sentencing materials indicate that the defendant leaned the machine gun, muzzle down, against the wall of the dugout, and when he lifted it, a shot rang out.
It turned out that the military weapon had long been removed from the safety, and the cartridge had been chambered. With his hand, while trying to raise the machine gun, the accused pulled the trigger, and the bullet pierced the soldier’s foot.
The shooter at close range was sentenced to a year's probation. It’s scary to even think what will happen to such “warriors” during clashes with the enemy.
