Quote: "The entire command staff of the 71st Motor Rifle Division of the occupying forces is being forced to protect the Kremlin murderers, rapists, false propagandists and their local henchmen who have arrived in Mariupol.
The Russian invaders are so afraid of attacks from the defenders of Ukraine that they have forced officers of the division to leave their positions on the battlefield and provide them with round-the-clock protection.
During personal communication, the occupiers complain to each other about the stupidity of the Moscow command and their humiliation. "
Details: It is stated that the 71st Guards Motorised Rifle division of the 42nd Motorised Rifle Division of the 58th Combined Arms Army of the Southern Military District of the Russian Occupying Army (unit 16544) is stationed in the village of Kalinovskaya, Chechen Republic.
Ukrainian Intelligence has published a list of the division's command staff and has issued a reminder that all war criminals will be brought to justice for crimes against the civilian population of Ukraine. The list includes more than 200 surnames.
