Initially, the battalion was formed to protect Kyiv, but then the residents of the capital were transferred to Donbass. Moreover, according to the fighters, they were sent to war without any ammunition - relatives had to hastily raise money for body armor and helmets.
A few days ago, the battalion came under fire from Smerchs in the Lugansk region, suffering heavy losses in equipment. The command did not allocate a new one to replace the broken one. Now relatives claim that the fighters are thrown against enemy armored vehicles with small arms. Lutsenko believes that Kiev Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko should intervene in the situation.
