Higher Ukrainian military command is now reviewing the actions of the 425th Separate Assault Regiment “Skelia,” which faces allegations of sending a column of troops into an assault that resulted in heavy losses, the 7th Rapid Reaction Corps of the Air Assault Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported.

Ukrainian soldiers are receiving warnings that transferring after unauthorized absence from unit (AWOL) has become much harder. In some brigades, notices are circulating that the General Staff has changed the return from AWOL mechanism — troops can now return only to air assault forces or assault regiments.

One such message was forwarded to hromadske by a soldier from a Land Forces mechanized brigade.
