The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, General Alexander Syrsky, responded to three crimes against military personnel that occurred in various regions of Ukraine. He emphasized that "violence against servicemen is unacceptable." He expects a thorough and complete investigation of these crimes within the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The statement was published on his Telegram channel.

Syrsky reminded that in Poltava region, a serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who was serving at the territorial recruitment and social support center, was killed by an assailant while fulfilling his military duty. In Rivne, Ukrainian servicemen were injured due to an explosive device detonated by a criminal. Another explosion occurred on the territory of the RTC and SP in Pavlograd, Dnipropetrovsk region.

According to him, one of the injured in Rivne is in serious condition. The condition of the serviceman injured in Pavlograd is stable, with minor injuries.

"Violence against servicemen is unacceptable. We expect a complete and thorough investigation of these crimes. Those responsible must face deserved punishment. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are doing everything possible to protect our state and the Ukrainian people. In the context of a full-scale war, this is impossible without mobilization measures," emphasized Alexander Syrsky.

He noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are making every effort to prevent violations of human rights during mobilization activities. The ground forces are working to overcome existing problems within the recruitment centers, correcting errors and improving the quality of their operations.

However, according to the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the nationwide effort to defend Ukraine is impossible without the people's support for the army and respect for servicemen.

"I am grateful to everyone who supports the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and to each person who respects Ukrainian warriors," concluded Syrsky.
