Justice officials extended the period of detention of two servicemen of the RF Armed Forces, who by their actions did not prevent the attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the territory of the Russian Federation in the Belgorod region in the spring of 2022. According to Kommersant, this led to the death of soldiers and the loss of military equipment.

It is reported: 7 servicemen were killed, 43 people were injured and shocked, 15 were destroyed and 30 pieces of equipment were damaged for a total of 89 million rubles.
