In the Donbass, during work to expand positions using trench charges, four Ukrainian Armed Forces servicemen were injured as a result of their own negligence.
This was reported by the press service of the People's Militia of the DPR, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“The latest non-combat losses have been noted in the ranks of the Ukrainian armed forces, which the Joint Forces Operation headquarters continues to hide from the public.
Yesterday, during work to retrofit positions in the area of the village of Peski using trench charges, two militants of the 34th battalion of the 57th brigade were injured as a result of non-compliance with safety requirements.
