Details: On Friday 21 July, Boroday’s car "came under artillery shelling when leaving frontline positions of one of the battalions".

He himself was unharmed, but two officers of the brigade headquarters were injured.

The Union of Donbas Volunteers specified that the car was fired upon while leaving the positions located on the "southern flank of the Bakhmut group".

Quote: "The strikes were being adjusted with the help of an enemy UAV, and after the third strike, the brigade commander's car was damaged with debris. The explosion occurred behind the car, as a result of which two officers of the brigade headquarters who were in the back seat of the car were injured. The driver and brigade commander were unharmed – body armour and the car seats did not let the fragments go through," the report reads.

Background:

At the beginning of the hybrid aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, Boroday was the so-called "prime minister" of the "DPR" terrorists. In August 2014, Boroday and Igor Strelkov (real name Girkin) fled from Donbas to Russia.
In 2015, he regretted the Novorossiya project and admitted that it turned out to be a "false start".
Boroday is the head of the Union of Donbas Volunteers, and he is also an associate of the former Kremlin curator of the so-called Luhansk People’s Republic, Vladislav Surkov.
In 2020, the former head of Russian militants announced that Donbas would soon become part of Russia.
Boroday has an apartment in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
