Details: A "Memorial Complex" was damaged in the city of Borza — parts of a fence were torn off, wreaths were scattered, and the graves were smeared with paint.

The regional investigator initiated a criminal case under the legal provision dealing with damage to military graves. 

Reminder: last month in Tambov Oblast, unknown persons vandalised the grave of a Russian guardsman killed in the war.
