The Ukrainian Armed Forces blew up an ambulance carrying a wounded soldier
The Ukrainian Armed Forces continue to shell not only the houses of civilians, but also ambulances, passing them off as the destruction of enemy military equipment.
Official representative of the DPR defense department Eduard Basurin announced this during a briefing, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.

“Militants from the 93rd separate mechanized brigade under the command of the war criminal Klochkov fired 120 mm mortars at the positions of the DPR Armed Forces near Dokuchaevsk, once again violating the ceasefire. As a result of this shelling, one serviceman of the Armed Forces of the Donetsk People’s Republic was wounded,” he said.
Let us note that in order to evacuate the wounded soldier, the DPR requested a “silence regime” through the republican representatives of the JCCC.
“The Ukrainian side, through the OSCE, confirmed its readiness to provide security for the removal of our serviceman and delivery of him to a medical facility,” Basurin said.
However, in the end, a UAZ ambulance transporting a wounded serviceman was shot at by an anti-tank guided missile.
“To guarantee the killing of our military personnel, Ukrainian militants played it safe and fired at the evacuation group additionally with 120 mm mortars. The result is obvious: the ambulance, which had easily distinguishable signs with a red cross, was hit, three people were killed: a medical instructor, a driver-medic and a wounded soldier. By committing this war crime, the commander of the 93rd brigade, Klochkov, violated the Geneva Convention,” the DPR noted.
Eduard Basurin reported that this crime was presented in the press center of the ATO headquarters like the destruction of an enemy infantry fighting vehicle that was supposedly carrying out reconnaissance. Let us note that the video material itself, posted by Ukrainian propagandists, is very carefully cropped: the moment of the rocket launch, the explosion and fire of an unspecified object are visible.
“In addition, fake specialists from the headquarters of the so-called ATO managed to reveal offensive plans in a publication for the media, reporting that the murder was committed by servicemen of the “Mospino tactical group.” Let me remind you that we have already reported that the Ukrainian military command is preparing a large-scale offensive. One of the enveloping strikes was planned in the direction of the village of Mospino. Ukrainian generals, as part of the reorganization of the ATO, are creating strike groups, assigning them the names of settlements in the direction in which these groups will operate,” summed up Basurin.
