The deputies of Ghost Brigade Commander Alexei Mozgovoi, who died yesterday on the highway between Lugansk and Alchevsk, made a video address.
Chief of Staff Yuri Shevchenko, Deputy Commander for combat training Pyotr Biryukov and Deputy Commander of Logistics Alexey Markov asked people not to “look for gossip or create it” on social media, television and radio, and to wait for the results of the investigation. According to them, the most basic scenario is subversive action by the Ukrainian military.
“Now there are a lot of different theories, but we ask you to follow common sense, and not spread crazy versions,” said Mozgovoi’s deputies.
In their address, the deputies also stressed that the Ghost team will continue to exist and fulfill its objectives. “Many of us are now calling for revenge. At the moment, we frankly say: we don’t know whom we should take revenge on, because this should never have happened,” they added.
